She is a professional writer who did this as a publicity stunt
I thought she identified herself as a doctor.
But in any case, you're simply building a strawman argument. You don't, and cannot, have any idea what her actual motivations were. Deluding yourself into believing you know what other people are thinking is not a good way to get to the bottom of any conflict.
(sorry, but you've hit one of my hot buttons)
- phaus 15y agoUnder her profile on that website it stated that she was a writer. Maybe she's a doctor too. You are correct that I cannot tell what another person is thinking. I formed my opinion based on the impression I got from reading her article. Due to the nature of the topic it should be a given that anything stated is an opinion unless someone specifically claims to be quoting a law or statistic.
- sitkack 15y agoPHaus was saying that professional writers have ulterior motives (what ever those are) and that we should discount the communication of people who are professionals. Only amateurs can be impartial. No wait, I just put words in his mouth AND made a straw man. Now I am confused.
