It's not bullshit, especially if you actually read what I said. Olives start getting very small crops at 10 years, but only produce once every few years when they are that young. It takes 70 years of cultivation until they are consistent.

Also: you go and plant something on someone else's property? Guess what, they have every right to cut it down.

So the Pallies have every right to tear down Israel?

All you are trying to do is defend jews.

I'm guessing he is a fanatical evangelical.

Well he said he lives in Israel and went to school there so I guess that answers that question.

All he is doing is questioning a highly surprising fact about Olive Trees as a crop. Calm the fuck down.

Well, no, that's not all he's doing, because that last line renders a moral judgment unrelated to olive trees. But even without that line, when you open by saying "bullshit" and then misstating the opposing position in a subtly incorrect way, you've crossed the line from "questioning" to "being combative about."

You mean the edited line, an argument about a property rights?

No, he's clearly talking about Olive trees.

The comment hasn't been edited, or if it has, it was a very quickly made edit, within a minute or two of posting at most. You can tell because there’s no edit symbol on it. Even if it had been edited, all that means is that he himself thought it was important to expand his comment beyond the olive trees into a moral stance. It's not like anyone else is going back and editing his comment.

By the way, nice job completely ignoring my point about tone and word choice. Again, it doesn't really matter that he's talking about olive trees. He's obviously hostile, not merely inquisitive.

There's questioning something you don't know about, and then there's being an asshole about something while being categorically wrong AND showing that you don't even understand the words you're replying to, and 5Cats was/is doing the latter former.

Edit: Wrong word.

So Olive trees take 70 years to start producing? Is that so? I'm not understanding this "fact"?
In fact, someone linked an article about 1000+ year old olive trees which clearly stated that they produce the best from 5 - 100 years and then taper off sharply. My point was proven 😊 by them trying to disprove it.

I think I mistyped that last part. I've been pulling some 18 hour days lately. I think I meant to say you were doing the former (questioning something you don't know in a not rude manner). Let me go fix that.

Oh, so NOW you can give someone an extremely charitable interpretation of their (obviously goalpost-shifting) argument.

God you're an asshole.

It's not even a goalpost shift. His original complaint was about trees.

That olive trees start producing in 5 years? And have the best output before age 100? Yes Cato could have looked that up in seconds rather than say something so abysmally stupid.

More anti-white propaganda from Brown University professors, I see.

So in summary, we can say that olive trees between 5 and 100 years old are the most productive and which also offer the best quality. From that age onwards, both productivity and quality decrease.

From a link that someone thought disputed my position, but in fact proves it.

If a Pally BOUGHT land? They own it, they can do as they please. If they murder the owners? They do not. This is pretty simple stuff here.
Are you claiming that the lawful owners of land CANNOT alter it in any way? They must allow non-owners to utilize it for profit and receive nothing in compensation? Really?

10 years? You're thinking of figs I think.
