From this comment... it's just so much: "I hope you and the other commenter both someday achieve the maturity to look back on this conversation and be embarrassed. I further hope you'll move beyond embarrassment and realize that it's part of growing up to make mistakes like that."

Condescending dipshit liberals cosplaying socialists.

They banned me from half the midwest instance for some of the mildest critique ever so now I just tell them to go fuck themselves and be done with it whenever they do that smug shit acting like the only adult in the room and trying to have "nuuuuaaaannnceee" when it comes to fucking genocide and police brutality in response to protesting against said genocide.

I have no idea what "gish gallops" means which makes the parent comment also very funny

[-] TC_209@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago

It's a modern term (named after creationist Duane Gish) for an old-as-dirt oral debate tactic: spew as much bullshit, lies, half-truths and occasional facts as you can in order to bamboozle your audience, as well as put your debate opponent into a position of needing to debunk your nonsense rather than argue their own points.

A more modern name for the tactic could be a Shapiro Stampede kubrick-stare

A gish gallop is lying so fast that by the time whoever you're arguing with manages to refute all your lies the conversation has already been over for a while
