Pretty funny, coming from someone who went from "false dichotomy" to "the false equivalency".

- CRConrad 1y ago> Where did I accuse anyone of a false dichotomy? You didn't accuse anyone of it, you presented one (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44995714 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44995714) and then claimed it wasn't one (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44994200 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44994200). And then you blithely went on to talk about "the false equivalency" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44996188 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44996188), which nobody had been talking about. What's that, if not "moving goalposts" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44998340 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44998340)?

- CRConrad 1y agoI don't think I am "confused". What's "confused" about pointing out the error -- or hypocrisy -- in accusing someone else of "moving goalposts" when it was you who did that? (NB, BTW, it wasn't me you accused; dunno if you noticed that I'm a different person.) And I think if you won't be responding further it's because I either confused you or, more probably, just simply made you realise you were wrong. (Or maybe you knew that all along and just brazenly projected your own goalpost-moving onto someone else, Idunno.) But if you change your mind and do respond, I'd be grateful for an explanation of how you came to the conclusion that I "seem confused", and about what exactly.
