Infectious diseases expert Jeremy Farrar has himself been at the center of the debate over the mysterious origins of COVID, which first broke out in China in late 2019.
A bot who is so embarrassed about his origins that he has to resort to insults. It is beneath you, honestly. I thought you were much more expensive than this.
You're presenting yourself as either a liar or as someone that has a gross misunderstanding of the generally accepted definition of "bot."
In either case, you've utterly failed to convince anyone of your sinophobic bullshit that didn't already buy into it, and are just begging for more attention.
Except for the historical facts which they presented you with, and the reason for giving that context? Each of their claims is basic history.
Do you not believe that what happened in our past shapes our present? Do you just think everything happens disconnected from the other?
So far you are the one who have yet to provide any basis for your claims. The other user gave a succint argument as to why China has reason to distrust western institutions and your response has been "nuh uh".
Do better.
Lol my only purpose now is to wind you up. This stopped being a feasible conversation a long time ago when you tried associating the racist card as a valid argument.
It is very obvious you are a bot. You don't even realise you are answering three threads of the same conversation simultaneously.
You're gonna have to step up your game then. So far you're just a very basic run-of-the-mill chud
This stopped being a feasible conversation a long time ago when you tried associating the racist card as a valid argument.
Dude, you're being racist, it's been explained to you how, you choose to keep being racist.
"Oh now you're playing the racist card." There's a real easy way to stop getting that card played - Stop being racist
It is very obvious you are a bot.
I thought you wanted to wind me up? If I'm an unthinking machine, how are you going to do that?
If you think I am a bot, why are you engaging with me? What a sad life you must have.
Your logic seems unfounded, I'm starting to think YOU might be a machine :thonk:
You don't even realise you are answering three threads of the same conversation simultaneously.
No, I do. I just wanna point out to you how you're being a dickhead. You're just being a dickhead everywhere. Do you really think there is a LLM advanced enough to carry this kind of conversation, but also not advanced enough to distinguish three different threads? How stupid are you? I know no people stupid enough to make such faults in logic, you must be a bot
I thought your purpose was to wind me up, bot now you're running away?
I wish I could have as smooth a brain as yours. You think you've got something, and the second you get the slightest amount of pushback, you run away crying, rather than in any way interrogate your own worldview. It must be nice to be thoughtless like you.
I does sadden me though, because it's obvious you really think you have something here. Does your eyes glaze over when text crosses 120 chracters, or is there another reason you cannot comprehend what has been communicated to you?
See, this is why so many instances want to defederate from hexbear. The giant pig shit image, the immediate ad-hominem jump to racism or insults when you receive the slightest pushback to your ideas, the overt hostility to all other points of view, assuming everyone else is talking in bad faith, and the meme-y 4chan-like in culture that's forced on everyone else. I get being mad someone is calling you a bot, because that's not an argument either, but the initial replies were like that, too.
At least freagle made an actual argument with historical context and such, and even though I think things from the 1800s aren't an excuse to never work with the west again, especially with international incidents like this, they made a point and supported it earnestly.
The giant pig shit image, the immediate ad-hominem jump to racism or insults
There was nothing immediate about it. As I've already once described to you, I came to this thread after accusations of chinese bots were being thrown out. I came to this thread after other users had taken the time to explain their reasoning, which was entirely ignored.
Again, there is no assumption of racism. I've already pointed out once how incredibly racist it is to go "Well if you disagree with me, you're a chinese machine". It's sinophobic orientalism. This has been pointed out, to you as well. Stop pretending like I'm just yelling "racist" at everyone I disagree with.
This is also why most hexbear users aren't that sad you wanna defederate. You're delusional. You keep crying about "civility" and "sudden insults" as if these things come out of nowhere, despite every single interaction being like this - One of you libs starting bad-faith discussions, then crying when you're not being taken seriously.
assuming everyone else is talking in bad faith
Look thru this thread and tell me honestly that you think they're working in good faith.
At least freagle made an actual argument with historical context and such
Which wasn't responded to, instead it was derisively mocked.
and even though I think things from the 1800s aren't an excuse to never work with the west again
That wasn't their argument. Engage with the text that you're being presented, stop misrepresenting it. And if you disagree with the notion, then ARGUE AGAINST IT instead of insulting other users, then getting surprised when you're treated the same way.
they made a point and supported it earnestly.
Yeah, and it was met with bad-faith trolling. Why do you think I should take some troll seriously, just because you happen to agree with them? Civility is a two-way street, I'm not gonna validate some dickhead.
edit: Their response is yet another thoughtless trolling comment, yet you somehow take issue with me? It's pretty clear by your actions that your only real problem is that I disagree with you.
