>I don't consider Peirce's racism relevant
Relevant to what? The subject, so far as I can tell, is Pierce's intellectual legacy. Is discussion of his views on race allowed or not allowed?
I honestly don't know. But what I do know is that whenever people try to calvinball into existence a special rule that we're not allowed, in a comment section of all places, those rules tend to grate me the wrong way.

- slibhb 5y agoI didn't say it's not allowed, I said I don't consider it relevant. Are you "calvinballing into existence" a rule that says I am not allowed to consider certain things irrelevant?
- glenstein 5y agoThat's an unresponsive and frivolous distinction; the point is the same regardless of which magic word you insist is operative.
