(2014) Well, that was fascinating as usual from SSC. "Remember, not wanting to be stereotyped based solely on your sex is the most sexist thing!" /s Even better was the link to the The Worst Argument in the World[0] (2012) (not Stove's Gem, though they link to that): "If we can apply an emotionally charged word to something, we must judge it exactly the same as a typical instance of that emotionally charged word." - about which they say "I propose that an outright majority of the classic arguments in American politics, and no small number of arguments in religion, philosophy, et cetera, are in fact unmodified examples of the Worst Argument In The World." e.g. Taxation is theft! Abortion/capital punishment/euthanasia is murder! Affirmative action is a form of racial discrimination! Obamacare is socialist! Now that's a useful pattern to look out for.
