"A significant fraction of those people would be dead if they didn't immigrate." -- bryanlarsen, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40598367 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40598367
> Also, implicit in your post seems to be an assertion that the moral responsibility for their deaths would fall on us
There is no such assertion. Any more logical fallacies up your sleeve before we move on?
- naasking 2y agoCute, now maybe look up the definition of "citation" which requires a source for the claim.
- randomdata 2y agoI did cite the source, at least as the dictionary defines those terms. You're going to have to fill us in with your own personal, non-standard definition that you are using, I guess.
- naasking 2y agoAh, so you're being deliberately obtuse. Not interested.
- randomdata 2y agoI suppose asking for a citation could be considered deliberately obtuse. What is even the point of talking to someone else by proxy? If you really have an interest in what someone else had to say, why not go talk to them directly? If you want to have a discussion with the actors in front of you, why not talk to them instead? Oh, right, you're not interested. But then why be here at all?
