    it can actually convey the point we’re discussing:

    I’ve understood the point you are making from the beginning.

    I just refuse to engage with it, because I’m not discussing enegy policy in the first place.

      So you openly admit that you’re just detracting from it, focusing on a technicality.

      I’m not considering the surface-level meaning of your words here. I’m considering your actions, because it’s a hell of a lot harder to lie with actions than with words. And your actions clearly show that you’re just propping up Germany’s policy of shutting off nuclear and therefore having to run coal where they wouldn’t have had to – and your claim here also confirms that you’re willing to be disingenuous and borderline trollish to do that.

      But thank you for confirming that you’re out of arguments on that topic. I wish your country’s leaders could also be this reasonable, because their policy pollutes the same planet the rest of us are also stuck on.
