Isn't this just a cleverly worded tautology? It's like saying healthy people tend to live longer and happier lives. But is it actionable information? Not really.
- ETH_start 3y agoHow is that a tautology?
- DropInIn 3y agoAnd Sealioning is in action, and thus so is Poe's law. No reasonable person could believe you're acting in good faith, right? Really...
- ETH_start 3y agoI don't see any tautology in my statement so I asked for an elaboration, in good faith. But your caustic response is anything but, so you've become the very thing you imagine me to be: a bad faith interlocutor.
- DropInIn 3y agoYour action is definitional Sealioning from my perspective. If you can't see it then take a step back and analyze the thread until you can see how others would perceive your reply as such.
- ETH_start 3y agoAgain, I don't see the tautology in my statement, and I know I'm asking for elaboration in good faith, so there's no way I could see it from your perspective.
- DropInIn 3y agoIf you can't see it from my perspective despite other readers clearly having been able (upvotes) then the problem is You, isn't it?
