Not that I’ve seen. Sorry so it was a joke or not? Or is this a joke now? So you really wanted me to answer whether I was moving goal posts or forgetting? Uhhuhh… I really did. Thanks for answering the question both the first time, and the second time when you copy/pasted it. Weird thing to do for questions you thought to be rhetorical. the good-faith zone? I guess I could have been nicer when replying to your ignorant comment. It’s hardly minimum wage. This is a nice example of moving the goal posts. I won’t move with you. This is not an example of moving the goal posts. This was a clear and obvious example of showing you how bad your argument was. Specifically, it’s a logical fallacy called denying the antecedent. Eg if A then B DOES NOT imply that If NOT A then NOT B That 50k/yr is a living wage In many many parts of the us, this is simply not a living wage. It’s borderline poverty. livingwage.mit.edu

Sorry so it was a joke or not? Or is this a joke now. I clearly wrote, for the third time now: the word illiterate was a joke about your lack of understanding a simple written sentence. I guess I could have been nicer when replyto your ignorant comment. Maybe you’re hallucinating things now. There was nothing ignorant about my comment. Your sarcastic bullshit was simply asinine right off the bat. I was having a chat with that other guy and here you come barging in, your idiocy on full display. You’re not projecting that shit on me. Get it away from me. This is not an example of moving the goal posts. This was a clear and obvious example of showing you how bad your argument was. Specifically, it’s a logical fallacy called denying the antecedent. Eg if A then B DOES NOT imply that If NOT A then NOT B You said : Mm yes, he forgot to mention the silly extra requirements of food and shelter. If they’re not dead it means they’re living. If they’re not homeless it means they have a home. And they also have enough to eat. So by your standards they should have a living wage. Also, it was reductio ad absurdum, and like I said, not questions one should really answer. In many many parts of the us, this is simply not a living wage. It’s borderline poverty. Teachers are living perfectly normal lives and they are not all on the brink of poverty. Sure they don’t drive the nicest car, but if that is what you think is important, just go work for Evil inc. instead.
