To be fair, the pictures that lb posted of the road that the dogs were off leash seems totally reasonable. If you want to be a Karen and cry about "what about the wildlife" yeah it's hard to defend but dogs deserve to have some freedom and run around without a leash.
Bringing them into to supermarket then f you.

Cars crashing into ditches aren't particularly reasonable though. Although Lucky's dog totally didn't cause that of course.

the "he" in that post references luckbox, the subject of this discussion and the person that trolly is questioning.

by corpus's own admission, luckbox (the person that is being accused) thinks it happened.

corpus: luckbox says the Holocaust probably happened
trolly: luckbox, do you think the Holocaust happened?

again, what are we even doing here?

My apologies vic I had briefly forgotten just how inarticulate you are. Which like totally isn't down to you, I guess we all just need to brush up on our reading skills etc.

by Victor

I just dont understand why you are questioning him on this when his main accuser (corpus) actually admits that Luckbox said that Luckbox thinks it happened.

corpus's complaint is that Luckbox demurred. lol.

Yeah cuz he did demure several times over and no, he said he thought it "probably" happened, as I very clearly said, so I reckon you also need to brush up on your reading comprehension skills, yeah?


I often demure when people demand I answer bad faith gotcha questions. maybe he was just annoyed at your weak trolling attempts to get him banned?


Can't we all just get along?

Or maybe he just has a darkness to him, hence his mutterings re Sandy Hook and propagating other conspiracy theories which originate from probable anti Semites, that might also be possible.


That sandy hook stuff is intollerable.

GENETIC FALLACY ALERT!!!

You sound like a truly miserable human being. One thing about Luckbox, he's pretty good at finding contentment. Maybe you should take a lesson or two from him.

Texting while driving, having my dog run around without a leash to the point where it causes other cars to crash into ditches, making veiled threats over the internet, demurring when asked if the Holocaust happened, propa

You're right. Why make veiled threats when you can just come right out and say that you're going to shoot someone's dog?

Some of us have plenty of people we would choose to shoot over a sweet dog that had never threatened or hurt anyone

It really says something about a person when they are determined to spread anger and fear instead of joy.

I taught my dog to smile. This is him smiling.Hes the sweetest dog to ever live. Not sure what you think you are doing tbhLike, I think it says a lot about you that I reached out directly to apologize, you ignored it, and are trying to attack me in this thread instead of a

I used to accept apologies at face value. Now I wait to see if the behavior alters at all.

Any supposed sincerity in your apology is clearly fake since you chose to apologize in private but use that apology as a stick to beat me with in public.

I didn't post towards you at all until you attacked me you dumbass

Like, you are aggressively in the wrong here.

Starting to see why you are besties with luckbox. Enjoy your day

Can we get a confirmation that you think the Holocaust happened

The original discussion was an epistemological one about knowledge vs beliefs-- with me arguing that we can only really know about things that we have personally experienced. You asked me repeatedly if the Holocaust happened and my response was always "probably". Since I wasn't born I can't say for sure but it definitely seems reasonable based on the evidence.

You know damned well I've always blamed the Catholics.

Afaik, all instances of shooting a dog mentioned here were framed as the dog attacking a person. Do you think an armed person should allow a pit or shepherd to mangle them because that dog is sweet to someone in its life?

Somehow worse of an answer than I expected, thanks.

The Roman Catholic Church and some Protestant denominations and individuals (most infamously Martin Luther) have historically been antisemitic.


by Trolly McTrollson

The point-- as Victor rightly points out-- is that it was never a discussion about the Holocaust it was always a discussion about epistemology, with you just using the Holocaust to try to troll.

Have you ever read The Diary of Anne Frank?

This is getting silly. LB clearly said that he thinks the Holocaust probably happened based on the evidence.

Could we get back to dog-talk please?

The point was always to see if you'd give a non-evasive, non-trolling answer to a simple question about the Holocaust, and I got the answer I was looking for.

As I recall, the trolling was running in both directions. It would have easy enough for you to respond straight away with your epistemological caveat followed by an acknowledgement that it seems overwhelmingly likely based on the prodigous amount of evidence. But you waffled around for a bit because it amused you to do so and you knew it would get people worked up.

Speaking of not getting an answer to a simple question:

Did you ever figure out that Pat Robertson and Pat Buchanan are not the same person?

You recall incorrectly. People knew what was my position was because again....it was always a discussion about epistemology.

I have not.


by Luckbox Inc

I have not.

It's worthwhile from a literary standpoint. One of the finer works mankind has produced.


you guys deeply misunderstand lb, if you asked him if his neighbor was a human (as opposed to alien or lizard person) he'd likely answer probably as well because there's no way he can confirm it having not done an autopsy

LB for sure being unjustly maligned here in my humble opinion.
