    What does arguing pedantics mean? Note pedantics isn’t a word.

    Yes the UN codes regarding war crimes.

      Arguing pedantics = conversational way of saying that you are being pedantic.

      Define terrorism not war crimes, obviously. Nobody was arguing for the definition of war crimes, and just because something isn’t a formal war crime, doesn’t mean it’s not something else (which would possibly include but not limit to only terrorism)

      You know what they meant.

      You are still being pedantic arguing about semantics.

      If you have to obscure your animus behind a veil of linguistics then you don’t actually have one.

      Is that a big enough vocab for you
