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.
