Comment on grrr

Glad we could agree even if you are coming from a point of bad faith now. I get it. You are wrong and want to try to make yourself right instead just admitting your comment was a hot take at best and a disingenuous lie at worst.

You say calling it a slur was not lie, but it was. It misrepresented reality and as so meets the definition. I also suspect you knew this hence why a lie is appropriate. I suppose you could claim ignorance, but I think that would be disingenuous at this point.

The way it was used was simply not a slur. Context matters and as I pointed out it was not a disparaging comment used to belittle a group. It was simply a personal insult. You might find it distasteful and I may even agree it can be in the correct context. It simplt wasn’t in this situation though.

I apologize if you feel I have not conceded to any of your points. Most of what you say is not wrong, just the original comment was.

Ah pigeon chess. Delightful.

I’m still confused. What did I misrepresent? Calling it a slur was a lie? That’s my entire thesis that I have backed at every step.

The way it was used was simply not a slur.

I contend otherwise. Extensively. With logic and rationale that you refuse to engage with.

I apologize if you feel I have not conceded to any of your points.

You don’t have to concede. I expect you won’t. I’d like you to engage with me rather than put words in my mouth and ignore what you find inconvenient, though even that is out of what I have control over. I’ve specifically marked why I have dismissed some of your arguments (mostly red herring) while you’ve relied on the tried and true ‘nuh uh’ strategy.

I listed three things that, if refuted directly, I would gladly yield. You have ignored this condition that is the basis of having any sort of debate and instead decided that you have won by some metric that you have come up with. Or would you like to babble about context while ignoring it more?

  Bad faith confirmed.
  
  You may contend otherwise, but you are wrong. As I pointed out.
  
  I suppose we won’t see eye to eye here and that is fine. Your comment was garbage and I explained why. You have failed to convince me otherwise. Cheers!

    It’s rather hard to see eye to eye while covering your eyes. Enjoy your hate speech.

    More lies, to be expected.
