(kramers in) Hey have you heard the good word of Disco Elysium

on a semi-related note why do people use kramering in like its a bad thing. whenever kramer entered everyone clapped and cheered! everyone loved kramer! (but everyone hates michael richards... duality of man... dialectics)

“Sealioning” isn’t real, it’s a defense mechanism created by people so they never have to explain themselves or engage with their own ideas in a discussion. 99% of accusations of sealioning are just a deflection to frame the person asking a question as an antagonist instead of a participant in a discussion. it’s a very dumb term that smart people don’t use.

Are you kidding, this happens all the dang time. Every time I get into the transgender bathroom argument, for example, I ALWAYS get some chud/terf coming at me with "oh, so you're ok with GROWN MEN going into a little girl's washroom???"

The dumbest debate term is "steelmanning". Every time some rear end in a top hat like Sam Harris says some dumb bullshit his fans'll ask why aren't you "steelmanning" his argument. Bitch I shouldn't have to make his argument for him.

Fools always reinventing the wheel in the worst way. It's called the principle of charity and it's reserved for arguments that are delivered in good faith, something which Harris fans can't comprehend, let alone attempt.

It’s a weird criterion for a person to limit themselves to, but it’s at least as shameful for others to take it personally.

If I liked my steak well‐done, with relish on top, I would keep it to myself, but I’m also not going to get in the mud and wrestle with someone over their own food foibles.

Yup. poo poo even if Harris is making his arguments in good faith the arguments are poo poo. I shouldn't have to construct a better argument for him - I'll mock the one he made.
