>you are putting your name behind your words, so you can't ghost when you are asked to provide evidence to support your position, nor can you engage in "lol it's just a joke, stop being so serious" chicanery.
Except many times none of these hold true.
- rchaud 8y agoIt may not hold true for scripted, time-bound, many-to-one events like talks, but for person-to-person interaction, people see nuance and context more easily, and it's harder to walk out of a conversation because we'd be losing significant credibility in doing so. That might be fine on Twitter, where no one's going to bother looking through your post history, but again IRL, people aren't randomly looking around for other people to get into arguments with in the first place.
