re: #791 Obdicut
I am going to walk away from this now, Ace, because I feel your reaction is far out of bounds of what I’ve said. I didn’t mean any imputation of dishonesty whatsoever. I do think your argument was terrible, and when it comes down to insisting you can interpret words he said to mean something entirely different, I can’t do anything with that.
I also do not think there is any moral flaw in stopping a debate at any point.
Bullshit! If my argument is terrible, it should be easy to demonstrate it! If you’re simply tired of the debate, say so and I’m fine with it!
Just don’t give me that weaksauce crap about how i’m twisting his words on purpose and i don’t care about it and therefore you’re walking away, because if i don’t care that i’m twisting the words = i’m not arguing in good faith = i’m being dishonest. Plain. And. Simple.
That’s insulting, it’s lazy, and it got the reaction that it deserved.
