The difference between my generation and yours: 69 means something. 6-7 does not. #endofaspecies
New unbeatable pro-life argument: “I am against abortion because I don’t think it’s the answer.” This was said by someone who wanted people to be “more logical.”

”What is <insert question about fact here>?”
“<gets fact wrong>.”
“Actually it’s <insert correct fact>.”
“Well… let me teach you about <thing I just learned about>.”
WHY ARE WE LIKE THIS???

I’ve never seen a proposition that I consider obviously true that I had a ton of difficulty defending. Please stop bringing hubris to debates. #endofaspecies

There was a time where a philosopher would aspire to come up with a great argument or principle. Today, the aspiration should be to come up with great sophist roasts. #endofaspecies
“I don’t need an inference” is insane. #endofaspecies
Today’s capitalist said that capitalism is a success because…rich people, and food insecurity is subjective. #endofaspecies
This is what cope looks like. After providing a source in an argument, this is the next step. They don’t consider me a real opp, but I suspect a rebuttal is not forthcoming. #endofaspecies
Overheard today: Capitalism makes people richer, if you don’t count the low wage jobs. #endofaspecies
If I had one dialectical Christmas wish, it’s that more people engaging in debates online learn what an argument is. #endofaspecies
Religion and theology conditions you to accept propositions without substantiation. It’s one of the nests that harbors bad reasoning. #endofaspecies
If you don’t want to do any of those things, you’re just being intellectually lazy. #endofaspecies
Opp gaslighting tactic of the week: Attempt gaslighting away what they said, pretending we are having this debate without an audience. Like, bro, we can all hear you. #endofaspecies

Joe Rogan hot takes sound like the profundities of a person trying a new strain. #endofaspecies

Easy holiday trivia question: If dude had been a European national, would these paragraphs exist? Remember that no ICE agents are targeting white people, and yet they still lead the league… #endofaspecies
I can't believe someone told me I moved away from talking about distribution of resources when I told them how badly resources were being distributed... #endofaspecies

Today I learned that free market doesn’t mean free market and meritocracy doesn’t have anything to do with merit. Capitalist language is funny.

Here’s your periodic reminder that if you believe in 13/50 or welfare queens or “illegal immigrants,” you’re part of the problem and should probably face a wall somewhere.

“Quiet, piggy” is the most unhinged, diabolical bit of projection I’ve seen or heard in a loooong time. And I’m currently rewatching The Sopranos.
