> You've yet to refute any of my arguments, focusing only on optics. Really? I suggest re-reading the exchange. > Of the two of us, only you have resorted to personal attacks That's a little rich, given all of your posts above are absolutely steeped in schoolyard insults. Do personal attacks somehow not count if they're directed at a third party? Is CF not a person to you? > Every accusation is a confession Wow, criminal prosecutors must commit a lot of murders then. This is the problem with your posts in a nutshell: all rhetorical flourishes, no substance. Nothing hangs together as a coherent argument, because it's not meant to, it's just meant to sound bombastic online.

> Really? I suggest re-reading the exchange. Anyone reading here can see all the points you let stand, from anything about reductio ad absurdum, to drug laws, to the intransigence of the right. Are we to the part of the thread where you just say things that are clearly untrue and hope no one has a memory longer than 5 seconds? > That's a little rich, given all of your posts above are absolutely steeped in schoolyard insults. Do personal attacks somehow not count if they're directed at a third party? Is CF not a person to you? In the same way I don't think a libertarian fortune cookie program is a person, I don't recognize Friedersdorf's personhood, no. I will crush his weird body like a dry snack and consume him for energy and pleasure, such is my appraisal of his full and total worth and consideration. > This is the problem with your posts in a nutshell: all rhetorical flourishes, no substance Of the two of us, I'm the only one who's cited 3rd party sources and Friedersdorf himself. I think if you're honest, you'll admit you're envious that I bring both style and substance. Not everyone can be great, Friedersdorf is a prime example of this, and I think he and others like him should take at least a minute to consider what a burden it is for people like me to shoulder the envy of the world.
