No pretending.Can we please stop pretending this is normal?
It's not normal. Not at all. It's absurd.
There is much variety over time in the horrors of "normal".

I watched it. Each of the 3 days. Knowledge is power. People on the right wouldn't bother with any Democrat convention. They'll wait for the re-cap from their intellectual leaders on what/how to think about it. (always a negative narrative by design)Thought I should mention this here...there are those who will wonder "why the hell did this obvious liberal Canadian even bother watching that horrible speech?"
So the word "cranky" means correcting false claimIn the past you've gotten cranky when I call you out for making false equivalences.
Are you getting cranky at me?But your crankiness doesn't somehow mean you won't be called out again
Your false equivalences are damaging.
So the word "cranky" means correcting false claim
of an informal logical fallacy? I recommend sticking
to dictionary definitions....not personal ones.
Are you getting cranky at me?
I wish you'd quit the false false equivalency fallacies.But I wish you'd stop gumming up good discussions with your weak, distracting, false equivalencies
I see no point in being embarrassed by politicians.Americans are too worried about how to pay their bills to be embarrassed over the antics of their rulers.
I wish you'd quit the false false equivalency fallacies.
But we don't get our wishes granted.
So toughen up, learn to accept disagreements, & stick to issues.
I ask the same of you.Happy to do that, I'd ask you to stick to honest arguments.
I ask the same of you.
Additionally, stop making disagreements personal.
I don't keep track.Which of my posts contained false equivalences?
When you make your argument about another poster'sI have criticized only the quality of your arguments, that's not personal.
I'm concerned with bogus claims of false equivalency.
If you disagree with something, feel free to make your case.
But merely lobbing the label of an informal logical fallacy,
particularly when wielded incorrectly, is not discussion.
When you make your argument about another poster's questionable honesty (however artful your language)
it's personal.
I don't question yours.
You should reciprocate.
You really don't see how such snark isn't personal?It's not on the rest of us to clean up your sloppy posts.
Perhaps you assume that you have The Gospel Truth,The thing is, you're clearly a smart guy. So when you make a misleading post, it's hard to imagine that that post was done in good faith.
You really don't see how such snark isn't personal?
I'd prefer that you stick to issues.
Perhaps you assume that you have The Gospel Truth,
& that no intelligent person could honestly disagree.
You'd be wrong.
When YOU create a post that uses a fallacy, do you think it's up to the rest of us to correct it for you? When YOU create a post that uses a fallacy, YOU'RE the one whose not really sticking to the issue. These fallacy posts of your tend to obfuscate and distract from the OP. I think YOU should do better at sticking to the issues.
Thou might first remove the plank from thine own eye.I'm asking you to step up, notice a habit you sometimes fall into, and make a slight course correction.
Thou might first remove the plank from thine own eye.
Allow that others may disagree & be honest about it.
If unable, I suggest putting me on <ignore>.
There'd be less derailment.
Make a cromulent argument, & we'll see.OTOH, you seem completely unwilling to entertain the idea that you might have ever erred.
