Kavanaugh hearing

[pErvinalia]

Where did I say I don't know what a false equivalency is? Have you been drinking the kool-aid? Seriously, you remind me of Mai around the time she flipped out on us.

You imply my position on republicans negates my claim about your false-equivalence statement (because it's a false equivalence of its own). The two are unrelated, as one is a false equivalence (your statement) and the other isn't (my statement). Dude, this is simple stuff. Stop with the ad homs. I expect ad homs if I'm slagging someone off, but this is simple logic.

All I'm asking, Brian, is that we don't throw out our hard-won rationality in the interest of advancing our political agendas (whatever those may be).

Dude... take your meds, have a drink, or whatever it is you do to chill. You're not even making sense.

You're embarrassing yourself again, like you did when you couldn't handle simple modulus arithmetic at ratskep. Remember that? Seriously, this is a simple point and you understand perfectly what is going on here. You made a false-equivalence fallacy, and then tried to imply that I was doing it too with my statement about republicans. So what is it you are trying to say here? Do you actually think what I did was a false equivalence fallacy, or do you think that what you did wasn't?? Either way looks bad for you, like the modulus thing did back on ratskep.

[Jason]

Yeah OK man.

Let's take this one step at a time.

I suggested that Antifa also whip their 'knuckledraggers' into a frenzy using bigotry and hatred. You accused me of committing a 'false-equivalancy.'

Explicate.

[pErvinalia]

Of ffs. You used this as a counter to someone's point that the far-right whip their supporters into a frenzy using bigotry and hatred. That's an equivalency. It's false because it's implying that the morality of antifa and the far-right are the same. That makes it a false equiavalency because clearly those who fight fascists are morally better than fascists.

Woe hold on there cowboy.

An 'equivalency?' You're imputing an equivalence I did not state, and did not imply. I simply suggested that a similar tactic is employed by Antifa - this does not denote an 'equivalency.'

You're making an unwarranted assumption predicated on a fevered extrapolation not supported by what was actually said.

[Animavore]

Antifa do a great service. I particularly like how they dox racists and get them fired from their jobs.

WTF? You're having a lend of us, yeah? This - http://www.rationalia.com/forum/viewtop ... 5#p1794005 is most certainly an equivalency, because you are using it as a rhetorical method to reduce the claim about the far right to something that both sides do. If you can't even agree on the basics, then there's not much point going on from there.

I'm interesting in doxing the cowardly masked Antifa members and seeing what happens to them.

I agree with this much.

Go on then.

[Jason]

Challenge accepted.

Most of them are on watch lists around the world anyway.

What will happen is that there will be a significant reduction in the push back against quasi- (and real) fascists and Nazis.

These 'nazis' will go back to quietly mumbling in private about the 'black man' keeping them down and all will be well.
