Lol. Makes me wonder...

What percentage of debates or arguments here do you think actually make one of the people involved reconsider their viewpoint?

I'd guess it's less than 1%.

That is probably the case (or close to) in any debate, here or otherwise. That is especially true for opinions that are tied to one's strong perceptions about things. It is close to zero in those cases.

That is very true.

I like to think that I am at least open to changing my viewpoints when it comes to debate, but I have my biases like everyone else.

The only thing I've changed my mind on within the board was previously thinking I was right about things 95 percent of the time, but eventually realizing it was actually 100 percent of the time.

It also depends on the person here that you’re arguing with. It’s more difficult to agree with someone that you’ve been disagreeing with for the last 20 years (or however long we’ve been posting).

Artman is causing a rewrite of what I used to call my "single mother navigation" strategy.

If you are considering a social/political issue, take the position of the average single mother, and then believe the exact opposite. See where the single mother is pointing, and go in the exact opposite direction to get to where you need to be."


Artman might be replacing single mothers soon in Trump 2.0.

Artman is just an autistic hipster. If the board leans one way he’ll go the opposite way just to prove that he’s a contrarian. If we all started praising Orlando he’d start shitting on it and say it’s going downhill.

He has some genuinely sick ideas about society, family, religion and government, all of which stem from the unfortunate circumstances of his own life. He also has those same TDK nostalgia goggles permanently fixed to his oversized head.

Artman did not heal from being a perpetual victim of bullying in his childhood, so his mental status didn't evolve beyond those years, which is what often happens to abuse victims.

Artman in 2024 will always take the position that is most advantageous for the lunch table of losers/weird people he was forced to sit with in 1984.

This is also why they feel so strongly about Trump, and hate him so viscerally. He's the bully they knew as a child. This is clearly what's happening with artman no troll.

A lot of the stuff I’d troll him about while using this ElJorge account was my honest-to-god interpretation of him as a person. He really does believe that he is the very best at everything and everyone else is just jealous. The best artist, the best chef, lives in the best location possible, listens to the best music, is in amazing shape, smokes only the very best weed, has the best opinions on every topic… honestly the guy is exhausting and I could never hang out with someone like him IRL. It’s like… show a little modesty from time to time, fella. But again… I guarantee it’s from Momma Angulo babying the shit out of him all his life. The other kids made fun of his huge tits? They’re just jealous of his muscle and strength. They make fun of his crossed eyes? They’re just jealous of how handsome he is. On and on and on… maybe he wasn’t raised by a single mom, but she still did a number on him.

This is where he claims you have no idea what he's like in real life, as if the 200,000 posts haven't given any sort of window.

Have you considered that maybe, just maybe, the act comes across as a little more likeable on a genuinely funny billionaire president with a strong and successful conservative agenda than it does for an autistic, humorless wetback who is crosseyed, autistic and obese?

Your little comparison is absolutely idiotic. Obviously both Trump and Artman are blowhards, you're not a genius for pointing that out, the difference is one of the two can cash the checks he writes. The other is a loser in virtually every sense.

I mean wow, newsflash, more than one human being in the world is conceited and abrasive! :elidrunk: :verdum: :rivers:

Looks like I owned a handful of posters in a clean sweep.
As per usual.

And no, you don't me whatsoever and continue to prove that tremendously.
You even have to fabricate dumb lies about me to have and semblance of footing against.
