What annoys me is the way these things work. The way society works, the way the Amiga Community works, the way the whole world works.
It annoys you the way the whole world works? Sorry I can't help you there.
That statement portrays you as disillusioned whether you are or not is another matter. its how your comment will be interpreted, thats all.
I was still writing my answer when you posted a clarification so its a classic case of 'crossed in the post' :-D
I don't feel strongly about the subject of Amiga being on "Open Hardware" or not to start a petition
This is the part I find hypocritical sir.
Do you know what the opposite of this statement would be?
It means that IF you DID feel strongly about the subject you would start a petition.
if you wouldn't then you are not hypocritical but are defending your arguments with the wrong reasoning.
I did not personally insult you by calling you a fascist, I don't believe you are!
I said that if you did start a petition that would be the opposite of wht you said earlier (thus hypocritical) and if you thought petitions are fascism then according to your own definition you would be one.
Glad you cleared that up though!
;-)
I also do not think you are a social misfit but if you keep talking the way you do about how the way that the whole world works is annoying to you, then people might think you are trying to be exclusive and that you think of yourself better tham them.
Again, its how your statements look. Not how I think you are.
You really should be able to take criticism of your views just as you expect others to take your criticism.
Do you think we should do that if someone doesn't agree with you, if someone has beliefs that just don't gell, we should get them some help, brain wash them to our way of thinking because its better.
LOL did i really say that
please cut & paste a quote for me purleeeese! :-D :-D :-D :-D
A petition isn't inherantly good or bad, but it can be used in a way which defeats the point of petitions
Exactly!! Thank you !
Ok now lets see if you can constructively show me how this particular petition is being used in a bad way, so I can finally understand you point of view.That is all I ask.
Too many people like to take things and twist them to their own ends, for instance imagine someone taking a post, misquoting it, or selectively quoting it to provide a skewed view of what was said
I feel I have been subjected to the same.
It happens all the time on the internet, and the only thing stopping it is honesty.
Amen!
Now sir can we please declare peace and stop annoying other readers with our long arguments. I feel we both are misusing the quoting system and should stop
No hard feelings :-D
