when a person uses what they have inferred is an "implicit model" to shoot down another person's argument, that's prettttttty shittttty.

when a person spend a lot of time rebutting about something that was not in the original argument (performance assertions are entirely absent, but that's the major focus here) that's pretttttty shitttty.

can we just have a moratorium on bad arguments about this? i don't know why we need the moral flogging from people who can't even keep what was said straight.

Can we have a moratorium on shitty throwaways created to brigade comments on stories about Google?

So as a racist, all I need to do is hide behind dog-whistles and implications and I'm untouchable? Fantastic. Thanks.
