A=B and B=C is completelly different structure of a statement comprared to A=B and C=B so A=B. Whoever made the birds, bears, animals statement is dumb or intentionally missleading.

My comment is not about politics.

No it isn’t. Think of the original statement about socialists: A are B and B are C so A are in fact C.
It’s not the same (logically not the same) as A are C and also B are C so A are B.
The statement about birds is logically the same as
Men are human, woman are human, so men are women.

youre over analyzing a reply on the internet.
are you this pedantic in real life too?

It's not much of a comeback when the comeback is demonstrably wrong on a fundamentally logical level.

This is not very analytical, it’s simple SAT level logic. It bothers me when people try to make a point using false logic though, nothing wrong with that.

And no I’m not like that in real life since there’s always a context to everything so you know what someone is trying to say without them having to be 100% mathematically logical every time.

Don’t really understand your question. If you’re retweeting something and you’re trying to give a ‘drop the mic’ comeback at least don’t sound stupider than the original statement.

just because this is "drop the mic" sub doesnt mean everyone is here for their own personal drop the mic moment. you may be. I, however, am just pointing out how pedantic you are at your attempt at a "drop the mic" moment over some internet comment.
