re: #27 Political Atheist

I’m not denying they are individuals. The way you used the word diminished their influence in the process.

No, it didn’t. That’s where you start reading shit into it. I did not mean that in the least. That’s a big ol’ leap to take, and no reason to do it.

Below the reality IMO. But whatever. Your “individual” is my powerbroker in the recent budget. We got 98 million individuals. We have a few powerbrokers elected into office.

Holy fuck, you think I was seriously saying they don’t have power? Come on.

I’m not pretending you said anything you did not actually say. You entered “individual”. I did not put that word in your mouth. If I am misunderstanding you it’s on you as much as me.

Yeah, pretending I meant that they were individuals just like anyone else, with no power, that’s totally legitimate.

For fuck’s sake.
