- krapp 8y agoNo... I know you thought you were being clever, you just didn't hit the mark. E for effort, though. I didn't invoke any strawman. A slippery slope argument is, by definition, precisely as I described - that a particular degenerative state (be it social, or political) will inevitably be reached starting from some innocent and minor consequence, and that this trend cannot be reversed or corrected for. You know, like falling down a slope that's slippery.
- CompanionCuuube 8y ago> I didn't invoke any strawman. Except in the degenerative state that you talked about. No reasonable person has said that the censoring of this one case would lead to censorship of everything, but that's exactly what you decided on for the degenerative state. > no one and nothing is going to stop them from banning everything else Try to backpedal harder.
