Okay. Then I was wrong about that.
> The thing I edited out of my comment was "motte and bailey fallacy" because after reflecting a bit I thought it was unfair. But now you're actually trying to retroactively reframe as a joke.
What a coincidence. I had written on a post-it note that you were going to pull out an Internet Fallacy. (I guess it’s more about rhetoric.)
I guess you’ve never seen someone explain after the fact that they were being tongue in cheek (it’s not a joke, it’s an exaggeration)? Because jokes, sarcastic remarks are always clearly labelled and unambiguous? Okay then. I guess it was a Motte and Bailey.
