@GaryMarcus Some will celebrate at this. Imagine one of your family members getting fired during this time of inflation.

USAID was mostly used to fund terrorism around the world, but some were used to do good things.

“Twelve days ago, people knew where their next paycheck was coming from. They knew how they were going to pay for their kids' daycare, their medical bills. And then, all gone overnight,” says Kristina Drye, who was fired in the USAID shutdown. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/usa…

The statement 'You made that up' is a direct response to a claim made by another user about USAID funding terrorism. The conversation is part of a broader public discourse about the dismantling of USAID and its implications, which involves public policy and governance issues. The tone of the statement is accusatory, suggesting that the previous claim is false.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not directly cause harm, but the accusatory tone could be seen as dismissive, potentially escalating the conversation.
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech, but it does challenge the credibility of another user without providing evidence.
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in constructive criticism or dialogue. It dismisses the other person's claim without offering a reasoned argument or evidence, which could be seen as a form of personal attack. [-1]
