Can you provide even circumstantial evidence of people like myself being paid, or are you resorting to unhinged conspiracy theories to explain people vociferously disagreeing with you?

It literally wouldn't even matter, you'll just deny it and refuse to concede even the most minor of points because for you, debate is not a means to find truth, it's a power play. We've all seen it countless times. We know your game, your patterns of behavior, and since you do not want to play fairly because you'll know you'll lose, you don't get to play at all. You don't get to participate in discussions with us, especially not me. You're isolated to your cult now. I hope you find happiness in choosing genocide.

Pardon me, I thought you were responding to a different comment (I was replying in my inbox to many different disputes). Seeing the actual context, this is ridiculous. You accuse me of being a paid actor and then say that you have no reason to present evidence of the accusation?

Let us imagine that I was a paid actor and would behave exactly as you expect. Aren't there other people reading the conversation? Wouldn't it be worth proving to them that you aren't just going on paranoid rants because your ideology has no way to deal with the concept of westerners freely disagreeing with you on these issues?

There's no substance to this, you have no evidence and merely impugn my character.
