    I don’t have to show evidence for a claim I did not make.

    You, however, made this claim: it’s better to have an unknown than a known candidate that people don’t like.

    Can you back it up with evidence or not?

      i think it’s weird that you think you’re allowed to infer claims from my position but that i’m not allowed to infer claims from yours

        I didn’t infer anything. You made a direct claim that you aren’t backing up. I quoted it. I have made no claims.

          you didn’t quote anything?

          please could you quote the exact words you believe i used to express “it’s better to have an unknown than a known candidate that people don’t like.”?

          thank you

            that was the original statement Flying Squid was replying to before you joined in the thread, Squid just didn’t seem to notice that you’re not the same commenter.

              i feel like i’m taking crazy pills

              somebody tells me they’ve quoted my words, and they haven’t, and i ask them to clarify, and i’m sealioning?

              no, they’re just full of shit

              what are you talking about?

                I think there may be some confusion on Flying Squid’s part about who they’re questioning. I believe (and hopefully, I’m reading this correctly) Flying Squid is looking for clarification from Bostonbananarama and you just happened to chime in with a related point? This Crowdstrike B.S. got e’erybody fucked up on no-change Friday.

      the commenter you’re replying to now isn’t the one who made that claim, and for some reason they aren’t speaking up to clarify that about themselves.
