Yes. In quotes. Which I think means something other than ethics without quotes.

> You’re here debating too,

I'm not really. I'm chatting with you and others. Not everything is a debate.

> I’m pointing out that speedrunning is not interesting from an ethical point of view

And you won that argument. Your internet points will be transferred to your permanent record within one to two days.

The top comment did not use quotes around ethics. I used quotes merely to point out the exact word that was used, and I meant ethics, not something else.

You’re absolutely right that not everything is a debate, but your very first sentence in reply to my comment was argumentative, and it was followed by several more. Feel free to reflect on that.

> Your internet points

Doesn’t using snark kind of undermine the claim that you’re just chatting? I would have loved to actually hear some definition around and justification about norms and get to something interesting. I finally feel like what I (and top comment) said was understood correctly and don’t have to keep trying to explain it.
