Is that a yes or a no on the good person part?
Do you think that addressed what I said?
Do you think that you are not behaving childishly?
Do you think that I am the other user?
You did make a claim.
Gravity existing and the earth going around the sun have been demonstrated beyond a reasonable doubt. Also it’s really easy to cite the evidence that supports those facts.
It was widely known information that cigarettes were good for you at one point so “widely known information” doesn’t mean much. That you even phrased it that was hints that you know the distinction between that and supported fact.
You don’t engage honestly in conversations.
I’m with you on my ambivalence regarding swift and I also couldn’t help but notice the lack of thought occurring in OP’s shower.
I think you meant lop, not lob. At least I hope vets aren’t yeeting pet testicles.
I dunno. From ABCDE’s comments and Demi’s lyrics I was reading the conversation as being about the latter. I didn’t really see anyone making the case that Wilmer wasn’t being a creep.
I’m not moving the goal posts. Read vaultboy’s post. Of the four sentences (if we ignore the apparent typo) three of them focus only on the age gap. The other establishes the premise of grooming and mentions the age gap again. Vaultboys point never addresses a 17 year old’s capacity to consent. Vaultboy makes a case that the age gap is objectionable. That is a valid point, it’s just not the one that they thought were making.
The point you are making is aside from consent though.
I used to like Neil but then I saw him give a talk in person at a local college. There was some girl that asked a silly question during the q and a part of the visit and in front of an audience of hundreds of people Neil laid into her about how her question was stupid and she was wasting everyone’s time. He did that until she started crying and left. After the next person asked a question as Neil was wrapping up his answer he decided to get another jab at the girl he already chased off by saying “and that’s a real question”. It’s hard to convey how clearly the cruelty and contempt hung in that room.
Specialized tools oversells it. A chipped sparkplug will work.
I think you would be surprised how many people would not only understand but also engage in the same activity.
And has he taken action on problems that people are facing? Is he never allowed to talk about anything other than what’s on your secret list of valid topics?
“Think” might have been a bit strong. Hope might be more appropriate.
