I'm sorry. What evidence would be sufficient?
- benchaney 10y agoIt depends on what claim you want to dispute, but insisting that women would be offended by what he said certainly isn't sufficient.
- tomlock 10y agoI didn't insist that.
- benchaney 10y agoYou implied it very strongly, and in the absence of that implication, your comment has essentially no meaning.
- tomlock 10y agoI think its quite telling that you find a comment where I suggest actually talking to women to be meaningless unless there's the implication of offense.
- benchaney 10y agoWell when you look at what you said to talk to them about, it really is.
- tomlock 10y agoTheir experiences, anecdotes, complaints and feelings of personal safety are meaningless?
- benchaney 10y agoNo, but it is irrelevant to what is being discussed.
- tomlock 10y agoEarlier you thought I was insisting women would be offended by something, and you’ve since stated that if I wasn’t insisting that, my “argument” was meaningless. What did you think we were discussing? Did you think that if women were offended, that would have been an argument for pitchforking? Were you saying I hadn't provided enough evidence women were offended? You haven't really said what you think is missing here, or even what you think I was getting at. Could you let me know what you think some relevant points would be? Is there any evidence that would persuade you of whatever it is you think we're arguing about? I think I've addressed or asked questions about as many of your straightforward (if a little emotional) statements as I can.
- benchaney 10y agoYes, when you said women might be offended by the statement that pitchforking is bad, that was clearly a criticism of the statement that pitchforking is bad. That criticism is nonsense, and you supplied no actual logic or evidence of an issue with that statement. I don't see why this is difficult to understand. Your response to someone advocating against pitchforking was clearly hostile.
