That's where I have umbrage.Fact? Fact?. No, we were discussing an interesting matter of conjecture when you decided to insert yourself as the judge of what is fact where it did not belong, and to do so with considerable condescension (I did catch your reply to me before you edited it).
While happily ensconced in your highchair lobbing "That's just conjecture", "Where are the facts?" "Whats the proof?" you've missed the entire point, and utterly obscured what should have been interesting in this entire conversation. Nothing at this stage is provable (except perhaps by those with inside knowledge of Heavenward development) because no evidence is yet available. Your "point", as it were, is nothing but meaningless tautology combined with high-handed rhetoric and a poisonous way of delivering it.
Calm down. Also apologies for the reply. I edited because it did come off as condescending which wasn't my intent.Â
You're incorrect, still, though. You have consistently claimed directly "There is systematic racism in Ishgard". Please deny this.
My point has been to stand between you and making fallacious assertions. You're engaging in projection at this point and I'm unsure why; because I disagreed with you, perhaps?
I don't appreciate your use of the word 'poisonous' here. It's almost as ridiculous as tumbr's utterance of the word 'toxic' when someone disagrees with the many false assertions there, too. If disagreeing with you in a logical and provable manner is all it takes for you to whip out insults then I think we're done talking in this thread. Hopefully this ire will pass, though.
