RE: We Need To Talk, Steemit.

I think it is now evident that you really do not know what a strawman argument is, which is pretty hilarious considering you keep throwing it around in an attempt to appear intelligent. I had considered this when you accused me of using a strawman directly after commenting about how FLT is a shit coin, which is completely besides the point. Now I feel my suspicions have been confirmed.

My decision to omit a response in relation to an irrelevant and subjective point is not a strawman, nor can it be interpreted as one by anyone who knows what it means.

I feel this has probably gone over your head, so I will allow you as concise an explanation as possible.

A straw man, to keep it simple, is when someone focuses on, or attacks an issue that in no way seeks to resolve the matter. It is only to make yourself look like you are "winning," or perhaps even, to convince yourself that that have "won."

So, is me deciding to ignore your subjective opinion on how I have handled this a stawman? No, you putting forward a subjective interpretation as if it matters at all is the only strawman here.

The only thing that matters is;

Is it right to pay for votes in an competition?

Any comment you send me that is talking about anything other than that, is a strawman. And it is rather hilarious that you pulled that phrase out of your arse to look smart, because all it has done is show that you are not. Also, you lost any chance of providing anything useful to this conversation when you started being racist.

Message me again if you wish, but I won't see it, read it, or respond to it. But, hey, you might be able to make yourself look like less of an idiot. So why not try? As this is about your image, and not about the competition at all.

Goodbye.
