Though it is tangential at best to this discussion, let me say that I find it absolutely hilarious that in this thread and the one above it, I have written provably true statements and have been down-modded, whereas the people who I have been responding to have written provably false statements (outright contradictions!) and have been up-modded.
If the point-system rewards shallow group-think, and punishes truth - 'What is the point of it?', I must ask.
Heck, this has now become my new standard for judging content quality - let me see how many provably true, on-topic things one says in a thread, so that their score drops below unity.
- natrius 17y agoI think you were downmodded because you were consistently arguing against points I explicitly told you I wasn't making. You are not some sort of martyr for truth. You also tried to use the model of class to prove that people with vastly different incomes behave the same. You cannot prove with a model without proving that the model is accurate. The model you're using is wrong. As I said before, I was never trying to appeal to the model of class anywhere in this discussion. I asked you to pretend I said socioeconomic status instead so we could stop arguing points I never made, but you wouldn't do me that favor.
