Do you feel the same way about Israel?

Do we own Greenland yet?

Aren’t you the guy that recently bumped a post from 18 years ago? lol. Oh, and “no” currently pitching a shutout over there too. And I would say the political makeup over there is similar to here (~70% conservative, ~15% liberal, ~15% centrist)

Just because you keep saying it’s a better economic situation over and over doesn’t make it true. It’s pretty much the same but with changing tariffs every other week. By “energy,” do you mean just gasoline? Because electricity and natural gas are both up vs last year. Of course gasoline is included in overall inflation which is still up. The current economy is not any better for the lower classes, unless maybe they’re looking to get day laborer jobs by standing outside of Home Depot’s in California.

I never said they contain “no” truth. A statement can have some truth in it, but if it contains a portion that is not true, then the overall statement can not be considered true. So you’re wrong. Speaking of @TBayXXXVII’s statements and people taking things out of context, worth noting again that he claimed I called hyperboles “lies” (even used quotation marks, which @Strike has yelled at me multiple times in the past for), which I never did.

For someone whining about me arguing in this thread you sure are posting in it a lot

So you disagree with @TBayXXXVII also, got it. Yet you’ve only accused me of bias, weird.

YawnGPT

To be honest, I’m kinda intrigued that this question seems to be answered a certain way primarily by conservatives. I actually posted this same thing on a different forum I frequent, with no indication of my answer, and the first reply was a conservative who asked ChatGPT if Democrats and Republicans would have different answers to it (even though I made no mention of politics in my OP).

Do you have an opinion on the question

Bump

Agree. Good thing I never said it was a lie. Where is @Strike to whine about @TBayXXXVII using quotation marks to claim I said something I never did?

Oh no he accidentally added a dollar sign! Aren’t you the guy that claimed poor spelling was a sign you’re a genius?

Oh hey it’s the person who put me on ignore only to talk about me repeatedly!

If you’re referring to adding a “rat’s ass” option, no I don’t want to. You don’t have to care, but that’s a copout answer. And I can’t edit it anyway.

You seem angry.

1) Clearly there are multiple other posters that also cared enough to argue 2) I did not get owned. All the “evidence” presented supported my statement. HTH

Any news on the Epstein files today?

“No” still pitching a shutout. Weird that the people arguing against it won’t even vote

“Used to communicate truth in a figurative way” = not true. FFS

Your reply has shown your bias and inability to comprehend the full answer.

Is this you admitting you were wrong?

Not his lifetime, unless he’s in the lower class

No you didn’t. Before even addressing the topic, you told me to be a man and called me weak. And when you did address it, you made a factually incorrect statement by saying that ChatGPT agrees with @TBayXXXVII

You’re joking, right? I know a hyperbole is not meant to be taken literally. But literally, it is false by design. Here’s the rest of the answer, none of which contradicts what I’ve stated: Yes, hyperboles are false by design—but not in a deceptive way. A hyperbole is a figure of speech that involves exaggeration for emphasis or effect. It’s not meant to be taken literally. Examples: “I’m so hungry I could eat a horse.” → You can’t actually eat a horse. “This bag weighs a ton.” → The bag isn’t literally 2,000 pounds. These statements are not factually true, but they’re used to express strong feelings or impressions. So, while hyperboles are technically false, they’re used to communicate truth in a figurative or emotional sense, not a literal one.
