You called human-beings a virus. An ad-hominem is when you insult someone in order to not address their argument. Pointing out your language of calling humans "viruses" to be fascist is not ad-hominem. It's directly addressing the language you used.

If you're gonna point to logical fallacies you might want to know what they actually mean.

Now. I could have misunderstood what you meant. You were not really clear. But that language is literally eco-fascist.

Maybe Google their talking points. Because you're repeating them even if you don't intend to.

I can't tell which is worse; your reading comprehension or the irony of you saying I'm the one jumping to conclusions.

Maybe reread the initial comment I made. I asked for clarification on what they meant because I DIDN'T jump to conclusions. Then I clarified why I was asking because that language around "population" is often used by white supremacists.

I never accused that comment of such things and they followed it up with a clarification. We had an adult conversation and didn't make a childish comment like you did.

Maybe go read it. Because it seems like you might need an example of how to actually communicate with people around sensitive subjects without just straw manning what someone is asking and saying.

You can misunderstand my comment. That's fine. That can happen. But you're doubling down on your misunderstanding now and pretending that that's what I "secretly" meant. You are being childish.

You'd make a great eco-fascist.

That's not what I said at all. But, if you want to be serious. Even what you're pointing to is not a simple issue and white supremacists do use "aid" and "education" as tools to reduce populations of "undesirables".

It's about self determination and independence first.

Those who come with wheat, millet, corn or milk, they are not helping us. Those who really want to help us can give us ploughs, tractors, fertilizers, insecticides, watering cans, drills and dams. That is how we would define food aid.

-Thomas Sankara

Western powers rarely have good intentions for their "aid" and is more often than not a tool to keep populations in the third world dependent on and subservient to capital.

But I don't know why I bother even mentioning that because you don't sound like the person to have an intelligent conversation with anyway given the conclusion you jumped to from my comment.

Fair enough. That's why I asked for clarification. I agree. I think I misinterpreted what you said as being a nod at people that say "reduce the population" while ignoring all of the problems with capitalism.

Argue for? Sorry, trying to understand what you mean here before I jump to conclusions.

Population control is not a solution. There is no way in which that doesn't involve Nazi level eugenics shit given our current world powers. I don't think people ever really walk through the material steps to this in their head.

Well, not entirely. There are cases for which a person utters the wish and it is not counted. "I wish for a million wishes!"

The standard is for the genie to explain the exceptions but not count that as a wish.

Now, it could decrement the count after this check. But just decrementing the count before verification would be sloppy.

But, then again, basic verification would also include checking that wishes_remaining <= MAX_WISHES.

Which, I think is a pretty standard check for genie's. Given that that constant has remained at 3 since their beta days and exceptions are thrown for violations of this rule.

Nice comment. Thanks for confirming I'm talking to someone with complete brain rot.

Do you have to refine them in the game? My generation learned a lot about this stuff from a combination of RuneScape, WoW, and Elders Scrolls.

Yeah but the CEO was a women and therefore "woke". /s

I'm glad our "mental health problem" is finally at least putting the crosshairs in the direction of people that actually hurt others.

I really hope this is the new Meta. Anything to protect our schools.
