How do you know it was an insult?

Because socialists are extremely emotional creatures. They often are incapable of using logic. Their fear and anger makes them lash out, as it’s easier than trying to form a coherent argument. This is seen time and time again on here and in wider society.

This also makes them extremely easy to manipulate and control.

Was that from Grok as well?
 
The irony is that Grok is more capable of independent thought.

Makes me laugh as you literally grokked responses the other day. Yet somehow I have to make all my own points again and again? Even though grok essentially said exactly what I’ve been saying.

Just accept you’ve lost this and that I’m correct, as usual. I will accept your apology again
 
Not sure how rocket science has come to dominate the politics thread.

Os was always an outlier on this board but the discussions have become a wack-a-mole exercise with the recent posts.

I think it is a wind up. There is no debate , just Os trying to get into everyone's ribs.

I no longer pay much attention to what he is writing as , since Jabbo pointed out , there is no thought behind Os's posts. He is just a minion let alone an engineer. - the only thing Os had probably engineered is his Hampton.

I have no skin in this game, if you are talking about SpaceX. I agree with Puck. You are both right and both wrong.

Says the big girls blouse that can’t win an argument without slinging insults. <laugh><laugh>

You’re the one using childish playground tactics, you called me a child and worse.

I respond with valid points over and over again, and receive constant abuse
 
Here is an interesting intellectual exercise. How
Can you be furious at cuts to winter fuel allowance but happy about America cutting medicaid that so many elderly people rely on just to stay alive?

How is this intellectual? If anything it shows you’re intellectually challenged asking such a dull question.

1) they’re in different countries, with different economies and different needs. You’re comparing chalk and cheese.

2) When have I ever said that I’m happy about Medicaid cuts? You’ve literally made that up.

You’re trying a ‘gotcha’ and its very poorly thought out

Oh so you think I was referring to you? I wonder why?

Excuse one is pathetic. Excuse two is good to hear - glad you can see Elon is doing damage.

Probably because you and jabbo are obsessed with me and can’t go a single post without throwing an insult my way?

How is excuse 1 pathetic? Are you trying to claim that every country should have the exact same welfare policies, regardless of population, debt and other factors?

I am saying that cuts which impact the poorest are always bad no matter where they are. You cannot say UK cuts are evil but give Musk a free pass for achieving the same ends. It is about consistency.
