either you didnt read what they wrote or you are making the worst bad faith interpretation intentionally
This is what they wrote:
Seems like maybe you didn't read it.
i guess i didnt consider that you might have a problem with reading comprehension
Ah, insulting me rather than explaining what I supposedly misread. Sounds to me like I didn't actually misread anything and you just want to attack me for not being afraid of guns for some reason.
Sorry, I'm still not afraid of guns and you can't insult me into being afraid of them.
Nobody saying you should be afraid of guns. They're saying that you should be uncomfortable with disarming vulnerable people.
That's not what they said.
Again, this is what they said:
I don't know why you're trying to gaslight me when this is the second time I've pasted what they said.
Now I guess you'll insult me again?
You might be pasting it repeatedly but are you reading it? They're not trying to make you afraid. They're trying to explain the vulnerable people need guns and youre suggesting they shouldn't have them.
That is a lie.
Why are you lying?
My bad. you didn't actually say that. You're just arguing with someone who is trying to make sure the vulnerable people have the means to protect themselves.
How are you advocating for people?
I was referring to the user to whom they initially responded.
Ah, so you missed the point of their initial question all together.
That is another lie. I asked them a question and you started arguing with me.
Stop lying.
