Your English was fine in what you said and most native English speakers would say it the same way. Nielso was just being overly picky about using that word there. It's also worth noting that Nielso's first language is not English either.

I donīt think the AC army will ever grow stronger than the U.S. army. The project is pretty much doomed imo.

You're stuck in paradigm thought. You assume that the only way to deal with the problem of statist military aggression is to use the same strategy.

the argument statism=totalitarism, or states have killed a lot people is rather stupid

[ QUOTE ]
How many people, in fact, have been killed by government violence in the 20th century? Not deaths in wars and civil wars among military combatants, but mass murder of civilians and innocent victims with either the approval or planning of governments — the intentional killings of their own subjects and citizens or people under their political control? The answer is: 169,198,000. If the deaths of military combatants are added to this figure, governments have killed 203,000,000 in the 20th century.

There are four types of Copernicus posts:

1) Replies where he actually tries to provide some content. Unfortunately, he can't figure out how to actually format his replies, so nobody ever reads them. He might be the greatest genius ever, but we'll never know because people see his comments in red, mixed into paragraphs with what he's trying to reply to, and instantly say "I can't read this [censored]" and go to the next post.

2) Replies where he brags about who he's got on ignore.

3) Replies where he just lobs a turd insult.

4) Replies where he makes thinly-veiled brags about billing $500/hour, 40+ hrs/week, even though he's posting here all day.

That pretty much covers everything, doesn't it?

Are you suggesting Nielsio was avoiding comment on the the statement as to whether or not ACists believe ACism will work (work in the sense: be productive)? Because, you might want to read the forums over at twoplustwo.com.
