If nothing else, you certainly excel at snark, don't you? For reference:
Certain people here have claimed that helping people is worse than not helping people
Nobody in this thread has made this claim.
So, donations to charities, bad or good? Making certain grandma doesn't freeze or boil to death, bad or good?
Actually, mostly bad.
Setting aside your condescension, I will point out that it seems to be your reading comprehension that is in question here. I'm not reading more into Loren Pechtel's post; I'm criticizing ksen's response to my own post, which used Loren Pechtel's as "support". It did so by 1) trimming out the remainder of Loren Pechtel's post so that it seemed to say only one thing without qualifiers and 2) it created a false equivalence between "helping people" and donating to charity, as if those two things were perfectly equal rather than one being a subset of the other.
You then jumped on the bandwagon in support of ksen's mischaracterization and fallacious word games. Then you proceed to condescend and mock me, and to insult me by attempting to cast me as a "hated" party (in this case a "compassionate conservative"), which is particularly entertaining as I'm quite far from being a conservative. From this I surmise that your skill at actual logic and rational discourse is elementary at best, and that you rely on mocking and arrogance to bludgeon people to your way of thinking. You're in it to "score points".
If this allows you to feel good about yourself, then by all means, go forth and mock away sir! If, however, you value integrity and rational discussion, then I prefer that refrain from such tactics.
