Wow. Look at this mess of high-end self-delusion I found while debating a conservative furry.

This is a genuinely amazing feat of intellectual sleight-of-hand he's pulling, crusading against "isms" while quietly grandfathering in all the ones he personally finds meaningful.

I don't see the difference between this guy reverently rejecting classism and racism, and some Victorian don insisting no literature post-Shakespeare really matters. *shrug*

This all exemplifies one of my strongest beliefs and biggest pet peeves: most people who call themselves "rationalism" have, having discovered there is intimidation power in this term, simply written the word "rational" on a 3"x5" index card and glued it to their forehead.

Reason involves dialectic. It involves making a willing and conscious choice NOT to use tactics like these to dismiss Enemy Thoughts out of hand. And arguing by definition like that? That's flat out.

@zebratron2084 honestly all I see in this fucking article is several paragraphs of "WHY DON'T YOUNG PEOPLE WALK IN LOCKSTEP WITH THE CONSERVATIVE ESTABLISHMENT LIKE ME T_T"
