They did not say that they don't know shit about the topic, not even close. They simply said their characterization is far off the marks. That means that their understanding of the conflict is far from perfect, but they absolutely do know shit about it.
They didn't say they were wrong
They just said they were far off the mark
That means their understanding is far from perfect
They absolutely do know their shit
far from perfect can still be good.
Can it be time for you to shut up yet?
To think that you saw me make fun of you for the game of telephone you played with yourself and decided to take the final translation and defend yourself with it. Way to miss the fucking point. "Far from the mark" was already cope by someone who was simply fucking wrong about what they said.
I am not going to shut up. I am not going to shut up at anyone's request. I also believe that their comment had a certain degree of truth to it.
Baby brain. "What they said may have been completely false but I still feel like it's true"
Shutting the fuck up at this point isn't a request; it's advice.
Ok then, advice rejected.
Shocking
update to my previous comment: I decided to not take your advice anyway
Fine, I might actually take your advice. (don't gloat)
