    Thanks. I try to do the same, but your responses here are next level and dismantle their argument without the slightest hint of contempt. I have a hard time withholding my contempt, so your replies are inspiring. Keep fighting the good fight.

      Thanks! I will keep it up, or I’ll try to.

      I’m no saint, I’m only human. I’ve had to give up a couple conversations, especially when we get stuck just in a loop. No progress being made.

      Here is my last misadventure https://slrpnk.net/comment/3623040

      At least in today’s post, we’ve been making progress, even though the person said " why does any of it matter"… That’s progress, that’s admission that their initial premise was incorrect. But in the link above, we just got stuck in a loop where we couldn’t make any agreements about anything. It was pretty frustrating

      I agree - jet’s been a fun opponent to spar with. I wish everyone held themselves to his standard (her’s? their’s? pronouns are weird).
