Sure. No I don't agree with a premise when it is not feasible.
A bit hypocritical of you, and opinion cowardly, but you do you.
Insulting me will not make me accept a ludicrous premise. If you told me that Martians are eating my eyeballs, why would it be hypocritical or cowardly for me to say I didn't accept that premise when you asked me?
Dodge.
Just answer her questions.
What am I dodging? In specific?
Scroll up.
That question is another dodge, and everyone can see it as such.
I was asked if I agreed with the premise. I answered. The answer is no. What am I dodging?

Don't move the goal posts. Go back to her comment and your reply about answering questions. Just scroll up, you'll find them there.
Once again, I answered the question. I linked to the question. I told you the answer.
No, you did not.
Do the courtesy of responding to her questions in the same way that she responded to yours, because your last comment was that you were going to respond to her questions because you thought they weren't worth responding to (and hence my original comment to you).
It's just an Internet forum. It's not like people are going to come to your home and shame you by laughing in your face or something. We're just discussing / debating topics here.
She asked me one question. I responded to that one question. You want me to do something I already did.
Here's her original question that you haven't answered yet...
And here's how you answered...
That's a dodge, that's not answering a question, that's not being intellectually honest. That's just text on a page, a hand wave, a non-answer answer, and not a valid content response.
Unless you are truly saying it's literally NOT feasible for Biden, the President of the United States of America, to help support unions?
If you are, I'd love to know why you think that way, truly?
Oh for fuck's sake, I have to literally use the word 'disagree' for you to get that I don't accept the premise to begin with? Are you really that pedantic?
If you don't like the answer because it isn't "honest," too bad. That is the answer I gave to the question that was asked.
And I don't really care what you'd love to know after you've called me cowardly and intellectually dishonest and repeatedly insisted I answer the question that I answered over and over to you. After all, if I told you, you'd continue to berate me and just not believe me anyway.
So I think we're done here.
Feel free to insult me some more.
Dodge.
