Delusions, a word used like a child hearing the word for the first time, a word used even at the most petty disagreement however like waves upon the ocean it hits on the beach but I, like the sandbank, remained unmoved.
You read it and you pointed out the differences, yes they are different one involves corporations taking advantage of charities in order to further enhance their financial gain (which your all for). The other involves a group of people tkaing advantage of charties in order to protest against a videogame company and change its ways.
However the fundamental core is the same, they are doing it for a personal selfish cause.
Yes its double standards you are offended by one not the other, your dislike (perhaps even hatred) of the whole movement is clouding your vision to what the truth is. I don't know what your motive is mate, I don't even care, I only care for what the truth is, your probably very sinciere but your understanding of the truth is as distorted in strong emotions.
I glad you read the aritcles, I truly am. But I am also concerened if you read those pieces and can only see the differences and not the similarties perhaps I am not the one seeing through a clouded lense.
First things first, there's no need to be concerned or even try to guess that I'm, em, "offended" by double standards that don't exist. It's also pointless to try to pretend that my using of the word "delusion", when you are actually writing the definition of delusions, somehow makes them less delusional. If you can find a better word for continuing your argument despite it being contradicted by reality, I'm all ears.
The rest of your post is simple. You've finally acknowledged they're different, yet for some bizzarre reason are trying to get me to ignore those differences and only concentrate on the similarities, so that you can say they're the same and I'm employing double standards?
Your argument kind of falls apart when you resort to "As long as you ignore all the differences and only concentrate on the similarites, you're employing double standards". I don't even need to pick any of this apart, the differences were linked by you for everyone to see, and there's no response to your post above, how would I even defend myself from these "double standards" if you're also acknowledging they're different? You argument is contradictory and pointless, and worse, it was debunked by the very articles you provided.
If you believe my argument is contradicted by reality, and that my person is afflicted with "delusions" how can I put an argument forward that you will accept. I am but an insane mad-man which you have whitewashed through the "big-lie" which is I suffer from delusions (a medical term).
I never intended not to acknoweldge differences, I apologize for that. However the point was that there was a greater similarity at the core. That companies were using charities and the fans were using charities for reasons beyond simple kindness. You argue that I ignore the differences (which I didn't) but you ignore the similarties because there differences are "as clear as day".
You use words like 'argument falls apart' or "I don't even need to pick this apart". Is this some variation of declaring victory before you even tried?
But like you I encourage eveyone to read the articles I provided and decide what reality is because we are both so "devoided" of it.
