DMB:
In conversations with you, I find myself defending
things I never said
and do not believe. Even worse than that, you
consistently seem to miss the
point of what I'm saying. Usually you fail to even
address the actual
issues raised.
PACO:
My posts all pull out specific quotes and offer
specific refutations or counterexamples. Yours
continuously evade all issues to which you cannot
respond. In addition, I have repeatedly pointed out
contradictions in your theory, as well as logical
pitfalls. Your response, again, is to ignore my points
or to lie about your position.(For a hysterical
example, I suggest anyone track the various
contradictory positions DMB has used on whether or not
conservatives are anti-intellectual. He implies they
are, denies he implies it, ignores the subject when
provided documentation, and later argues with Sam that
that is his preferred terminology.)
If you want to prostitute the MOQ and offer a theory
that those that agree with your political leanings are
intellectuals and those that differ are regressive
idiots that are not capable of understanding you -- let
alone disagreeing with you -- then you must permit your
theory to withstand challenge and debate. You have
instead chosen to insulate it from attack or to run
from challenges. Your theory therefore cannot stand up
as intellectual (either due to its low quality, or your
inadequacy as its defender). Therefore, your theory is
not intellectual, and , according to your pretzel-
logic, you are a conservative. (attempt at humor)
DMB:
And if you respond by simply denying that you are an
oily duck, I just might pull all my hair out.
PACO:
Yes, I am an oily duck. Does this make you feel better?
