Alas, I'm afraid accusations of hypocrisy don't make good flotation devices.

Nah, but it helps against getting fooled while we wait for them to either stop trying to fool me (not sure about this) or put their money where their mouth is.

Tu quoque. "Yeah, I'm not giving up smoking until my doctor does".

Good one.

Saw it was below 0 and upvoted you even though I guess "your side" is the one who is busy downvoting me.

Downvoters: can you please stop downvoting based on assumed political belief and start judging content based on quality? Please?

Yeah agreed, you are stating a position as it were fact, and using a ton of faulty logic.

So yes, your position is unpopular, and it's wrong.

I believe you're getting downvoted because the inconsistency in your logic has been pointed out, yet you're persisting with the argument.

It was not about me being downvoted, that is more or less a given, it was about the person replying to me getting downvoted although IMO his point was valid.

Ok, that's why I was confused; by the time I got to the thread, that person had been upvoted back in the black (perhaps due to your votes). Anyway, I love some good discourse. Thanks for contributing to the conversation.
