ben shapiro's facts and logic rhetoric, now we're getting modern.

This kind of comment is not going to play well with the HN audience, it is not intellectually curious and it does not add to, or improve the conversation.

Ben Shapiro’s tactics are easy to argue against if that’s what you believe is happening.

it's just bad faith bullying tactics. There's nothing to be gained from the engagement. Naming the tactic is about as intellectually engaging as it gets.

I'd love to see gish-galloping or the perversity, futility, or jeopardy thesis come up. Those are at least entertaining.

You can be snarky, but that doesn’t change the situation:

You can’t reply substantively.

You’re a beacon of wisdom and wit!

You called me a bunch of names, used classic harassment tactics and now you're negging me.

I'll continue to respond to you by stepping over these tired traps you're trying to set.

You threw out a fallacy first, responded to pointing that out with dismissive snark, then whine when people call you positive names?

I think that’s because you’re uncomfortable with the fact I called out your fallacy and told the truth — you’re unable to respond substantively.

That kind of fallacy, then crying about how you’re the victim when people point it out, is a great example of bad faith — but why show good faith to That Team (TM)?

You’re a paragon of virtue.

and that's the gish gallop.
