  • My criticism here isn’t about any specific group or topic. It’s about this aggravating debate pattern where rhetoric is used to paint the opponent’s argument into a morally charged form rather than addressing the actual claim being made.

    That style of engagement is not something that ever leads to meaningful discussions.

    A similar dynamic occurs in other highly polarized subjects where participants are more focused on signaling moral positions than resolving the underlying question.

    This sort of shit has been going on since at least the times of Artistole who championed logic over emotion.


  • Arguing with vegans is like arguing with antivaxxers, they are positions based on emotions and they have their own version of reality they use to reinforce their believes. They often claim they have studies to back up their claims but the most shallow dive shows them to be bullshit.

    It’s literally evident as they try to reframe this as rape. Their need to lean on rhetoric shows they have a strong basis for their believes.









  • Yes. That is the only path forward given the statements and reusable to move forward with any charges.

    They are counting on our ick to get away with this. They have actually used this as a reason. Why should anyone still giving them the benefit of the doubt? They are child predators and child predator enablers. By siding with them, you become one of them.

    Releasing documentation of what happened doesn’t change what happened, it isn’t going to incentivize rich assholed to make more.
