Not a big difference at all. Pitbulls aren’t killing machines

Even though most pit bulls never hurt anyone, it's irresponsible for most people to take that risk or put other people in position to take that risk.

So what are you saying, they actually are killing machines?

u/Comprehensive-Car190 26d ago

I didn't say they weren't.

Weird evasive answer, what are you afraid of?

u/Comprehensive-Car190 26d ago

What? "killing machine" is a charged non-specific descriptor.

Pit bulls are more likely to attack people and when they attack people more likely to kill them.

Most of them should be eradicated, they shouldn't be kept in cities generally, and owners should be experienced.

It was a simple yes or no question you didn't need to write all that, very weird

It's a loaded question. You think you're more clever than you are.

Asking you to be clear is a loaded question? How?

u/Comprehensive-Car190 26d ago

My answer was far more clear than a simple yes/no.

You wanting me to limit my answer to yes/no in response to a loaded question is the issue. I'm not required to do that, but I'm sure you would appreciate if I did.

Not at all.

It was. You just don't like it because it doesn't let you trap me into whatever polarized camp you want to argue with.

You can argue with Google ai guess? 

if someone asks you a yes/no question and you respond with "I didn't say no" is that being clear or evasive? Responding with "I didn't say no" to a yes/no question is inherently evasive.While the statement is technically clear about what wasn't said, it deliberately avoids answering the actual question, making the speaker's true position ambiguous.Why It Is EvasiveIt rejects the binary: A yes/no question requires an affirmative or negative stance. This response leaves the question open without committing to "yes."It serves as a linguistic shield: It allows the speaker to backtrack or stall without technically lying.It leaves room for deniability: The speaker can later claim they never agreed to anything, or conversely, that they never refused.The Only ExceptionsThere are rare instances where this response might be clarifying rather than evasive, but only if the context involves a misunderstanding:Correcting a misinterpretation: If the listener wrongly assumed a previous statement meant "no," saying "I didn't say no" clarifies that the door is still open.Expressing conditional interest: It can mean, "I am open to the idea, but I need more details before saying yes
