You didn't say what you claim you said either, your exact words were:

Quote
I don't see anybody else proposing anything better.

Which is where the implication comes in.

If that was my argument, I wouldn't have phrased it the way I did. I would have outright said, "Bernie's plan is the only good one out there."

But I didn't say that.

Implications are relative. You might have thought I was implying something, but I wasn't.

Then what was the point of that quote? It clearly wasn't to say "Bernie's plan is the only good one." because you would've just said that instead.

To prompt him to provide me with a better plan that I may not be aware of.

(Which he still hasn't done.)

Duh.

And why would you want that? Because you think the plan is the best out of all other solutions provided?

...Because maybe I'm wrong?...

...Because by saying "I don't think," I'm basically conceding that I could be wrong?...

You didn't say "I don't think" though. Come on, you're not really living up to being word for word.

I said "I don't see."

Which is the exact same fucking thing.

No it isn't. "I don't think" means you're unsure if the other options being equally good. "I don't see" means you are assured that the other options are not as good.

I said "I don't see."

Which is the exact same fucking thing.

No, it doesn't. Not necessarily.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
"I don't see" means you are assured that the other options are not as good.
Can you see Alaska if you look South from Washington?
