Twice now I've returned from vacation to find this thread more bizarre than it was when I left. The fun never stops on Hatrack. Haha.

Parkour, what happened to your usual cherry disposition? Don't let negativity sour your online interactions. Posts: 570 | Registered: Sep 2009

Ahh, I see your comprehension skills are still woefully substandard. Better work on that, champ! And thanks, but "your" support is hardly needed.

When the signatures are on the relevant paperwork I'll celebrate. And then watch to see how ISPs get around it.

They're referring to my only slightly hyperbolic remark that the F-35 could very well have led to the 'downfall of the US military' but was mainly a reference to George Orwell's commentary on war for war's sake; where the development of weapon systems isn't to achieve a practical purpose but to waste resources that could otherwise be used for the advancement of human welfare.

I cannot know it to be truth that there exists other individuals aside from myself, but I can only know it to be truth that I exist, therefore, because I think that I exist, I must exist.

I bet you're just making all of this "it was mainly a reference to George Orwell" up as an excuse after you said it and caught some flak for it.

quote: Technical progress can cease and the most palpable facts can be denied or disregarded. As we have seen, researches that could be called scientific are still carried out for the purposes of war, but they are essentially a kind of daydreaming, and their failure to show results is not important. Efficiency, even military efficiency, is no longer needed.

You know, I had forgotten about that, though it did happen a week later than the initial remark. But you did qualify it, sort of.
Anyway, I forgot that you had referenced Orwell so directly, so I'm sorry about that. The truth is, that was a shot about your support for authoritatian governments more than my memory of the thread, so doubly egg on my face!

He referenced Orwell but his initial point was attempted to be substantiated on lines indicating a motor literal meaning. Since he's always printing out assertions of western fallibility, or failure to the future growth and development of his slavishly loved Russians and Chinese, the shoe fits

Thank you, I apologize for the accusation. I got angry because of Parkour's and Samprimary's aggressive idiocy and in the latter's case, is outright lying.

I love how you just apparently take whatever I said probably around 2008 or even earlier and take it 100% at face value and force feed it into the context of whatever we discussed recently, regardless of any context or evidence I provide.
