This is spot on. It's the repeated conversations with evangelists to re-prove something mundane that really sucks all the air out of the room.
The "Just Asking Questions" faux civility is sometimes referred to as JAQing off.
- fdggdfsvscvsd 8y agoI don't fully understand the concept of sea lioning. Basically asking any question at all is "sea lioning", if the person being asked doesn't want to answer? OP made one statement, I asked one question, and it is sea lioning? Is that some kind of hyper progressive safe space thing? Please explain. I'd like to be a good citizen.

- Zaskoda 8y agoSeems that accusing people of sea lioning is also a good way to dodge addressing a serious question. Someone will have to make another animal based metaphor for that some time.
