Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

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.
