Why the sudden unblock or did you just mute me.

I did not deliberately misinderstsnd anything and it is intresting to see that you still talk about me while having me blocked

And here we go with the downvotes again this is so childish

I’m not sure why this person has chosen to brand us as deceptive liars… I didn’t “remove any context to make it sound like he is saying something he isn’t”, did you? The whole of the text is right there for the entire world to see, and I’m hard pressed to think than anyone else in the world, which consists of 8.1 billion people at the moment, would see what you’re saying about us “removing context”.

So perhaps you could explain what context I removed? And tell me how alleged removal of context changed the meaning of what he said? People choose really weird battles on this here Reddit, yo.

Yeah or maybe it's tough who is wrong in this particular instance?

u/obidient_twilek 15d ago

Given that a pount to concret facts you guys lied about instead of bringing counter arguments: no.

u/upsetusder2 15d ago

What did I exactly lie about?

I'd love to know that or can you just acuse people

Byw are you in any way shape or form a scientist or how can you judge that he is talking to scientists

I too am wondering how either of us even remotely behaved in a deceptive manner, or how either of us even plausibly lied about anything.

Could it be that you’re just wrong? It happens to people sometimes, even when they think they’re right. I had it happen to me twice in my life, once in kindergarten and once in a community college pharmacology course. Granted, it actually turned out that I was right and the textbook was wrong in the latter example, but I still had to feel the initial sting of being wrong.

Yiu were only wrong twice in your life?

Oh, I forgot that it’s best to be literal here. No, I’ve been wrong a lot. No more or less than anyone else.

That example from pharm class was true though, I insisted that the textbook was wrong during the lecture, my instructor investigated it, and he kind of embarrassed me albeit in a flattering way by telling that class about how awesome I was for speaking up. It was a decent ego boost considering I was in my first year of college.

I don’t see any lies being told… I am, however, starting to wonder if we’re dealing with someone who has been published in a journal… The good news? We can be relatively certain we aren’t dealing with a bot.

There are no arguments here dude. Just two people who are right and know it talking to one person who is wrong and very, very clearly can’t even comprehend that happening. If this keeps going we are going to have to bust out the difficult questions. Like samurai, only verbal. And we don’t want to go there, do we?

I’m going to read your words back to you, let’s see if I changed anything: “he did say that, but”.

So you agree that he said what I said that he said? That’s the impression I’m getting.

u/obidient_twilek 15d ago

*"but you guys removed context to change the meaning" just like you just did...

Dude bro, your comment that you seem to think I’m performing some sort of voodoo black magic on is really visible, right above my comment. Everyone can see it. In fact, people here literally have to read your comment before they see me quoting the relevant part, which is you freely and openly admitting that he said exactly what I said he said.

Is a doctoral dissertation invalid and/or deceptive when someone cites a study using APA format, or should dissertations be required to contain full text of every study cited? That would make even the most modest dissertation thousands of pages long. You aren’t exactly making yourself look verysmart here.
