Flaming... no?

A little over the top, perhaps?

"You do realize that saying "there's no such thing as wage-slavery" is not the same as never having encountered the concept, right? Please tell me that you're not that fucking stupid to confuse the two. Seriously--you're not that damned dumb, are you? You honestly don't believe that "there is no such thing as wage slavery" means that the person has never encountered the concept, do you?"

"And I don't need your stupidity in place of a good argument. You clearly, in a fit of utter stupidity, believe that "there is no such thing as wage-slavery" is the same as never having heard of the concept. Clearly, this is so wrong as to be utterly laughable. Therefore, I can only surmise that your intellectual acumen is sub-par. IOW: you're flat-out damned dumb. And yes, we are debating whether or not it is a legitimate concept because you equated the idea of there not being any such thing as wage slavery with not having heard of it. Thus, there is no strawman on my part (and you don't even know what a strawman is). You're a total git."

I completely agree (not with the statements BAAWA Knights made, but that it's "over the top").

Thanks - you and I are arguing the same basic dynamic on that thread... I on one side, you on the other. And yet - you have managed to remain more than merely civil. (My thanks for that).

Nevermind. Looks like TG got to it first.
