RE: Patriotism, an Abomination
It would be kind of narrow minded to think that all of anything can be categorized in one way or the other don't you think Mr baah?
"war is a racket" as in every war fo every kind? I doubt that...
Instead of putting words into my mouth, the person that jumped onto the Ad Hominem to gang up with the first attacker and defend the attacker (despicable acts, from despicable narrow minded assholes), read what it says again: WAR IS A RACKET. Does it say "Every kind of war is a racket". I doubt that...
The mark of a truly critical self thinker is OMITTING using or relying on ellipsis/omison and instead of the fallacious "Draw your own conclusion" the ... begs, they chose to make a complete thought, a critical argument, and make it SHARP, and not blunt and dumb bell like, but swift and to the point, like sWords, practicing precise, and specifics instead of TALKING POINTS (lolololol).
Ah so you expect everyone to be able to read between the lines of what you write? I thought you might be a man who means what he says, sorry...
No, I expect people to read what I wrote, and not read into what I wrote, or in between what I wrote, which is the definition of meaning what you say.
I have no doubt that you meant to say I am not a man by your ... Omission and Draw your own conclusion fallacy, there's no reading in between the lines, it's an ad hominem seeking to divert the conversation from War Is A Racket being pearls before the swine, exactly as demonstrated by your inability to swallow one mans experience without seeking to pull it apart or distort it somehow, and otherwise inability to appreciate it.
Pearls before swine. (Which is another ad hominem, responding with support to a previous one, except here and now it's not, because it has been demonstrated as true, and the subject of discussion as well)
You did not differentiate from the "all" when you said "War Is A Racket" and your ad hominem excuse is most armature.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and your Hero has his, however I'm sure there were other men in that same war who would not concur...
Question: Why did your hero participate in a war that was a racket?
Why would I? I told you the name of a mans's work.
How would you know anything, you either go and read the work or you shut up and stop making a fool of yourself.
As sure as a fool is.
Why do you want to know?
