(Person A) There are too many transfers.
(Person B) But you didn’t complain when that bad player transferred! Chessmate!!
Person A: There are too many transfers! Something needs to be done to stop this!!
Person B: But you cheered all those transfer of bad people? You realize if you would have to stop those transfer too.
Person A: Obviously I meant there are too many transfer of players I want to keep. Those transfer are good because then we can get good players (that other teams wanted to keep) can transfer here! Clearly only the transfers of players we want to retain need to be stopped.
Stop being obtuse!
