    identity is irrelevant to truth. this is pure ad hominem

    Today I’ve read stupider things and more pretentious things, but I think this is the most of both at once I’ve seen in a while.

    What are you even trying to say? That the world through many institutions and norms doesn’t treat some classes of people differently?

    You didn’t even address the rest of the post you quoted from.

      you don’t get to decide what I say, when, or to whom.

        This is also incredibly stupid and irrelevant. Are you okay? Are you just bad at communicating? It’s not about me deciding what you say or to who. I’m giving you shit because your post was nonsense and you didn’t make a coherent argument. What you said was a complete non sequitur.

        The argument the other person made was, essentially, arguments that “both sides are the same” are bullshit. One “side” does a lot more immediate harm, especially to women and minorities. Your identity is irrelevant to the truth of those harms, sure, but not irrelevant to the conjecture that you don’t care about these things because they don’t personally affect you.

        You didn’t address any of that. Maybe you’re too busy badly replying with poorly written but extremely pretentious leavings.

          and that claim is a red herring, irrelevant to whether what I said is true

      I’m saying that my claims are true or false regardless of who I am.

        Could you learn to comment once, with your whole thought contained? Its really hard to take you seriously when you talk and text like my senile grandmother
