Your points 1 and 3 are about the alt-right...but you just said you weren't talking about the alt-right. How is Charlottesville relevant again?

- tptacek 9y agoBecause I'm leaving open --- or, really, stipulating --- the argument that "the alt right" doesn't have a clear enough definition to make those comparisons. I'm content to make comparisons with more specific subgroups. What I see here is me going out of my way to accommodate your concerns about this discussion, and you trying to use those concessions as ammunition. I understand why that happens (it's a message board), but I'm not trying to score points off you.
- leereeves 9y agoI feel like you're trying to drag me down exactly the road I warned about. This page is about James Damore, so why are we spending so much time talking about white supremacists and Nazis? Unless you can directly justify the connection, I'm going to continue pointing out that making such irrelevant and unjustified associations is a common smear tactic.
