      I'm always amazed at how many people miss the point. When I joked that my phone was against relativism because it autocorrected "knowledges" to "knowledge," a load of people told me how to add words to my phone's dictionary.

      Now I'm being informed that rather than complain about how people are responding to a point I made, I could just stop making points. It's the epitome of a problem-solving mentality coming up against social/psychological/emotional commentary. I don't mean to be sexist but:pic.twitter.com/RVdtv5IyNK

      OK, I do mean to be sexist. Stereotypes have a high degree of accuracy, you know...

          Sounds like expert advice was given. What's so sexist about that? Oh, the relationship issues? Immaterial when you send advice questions to a car doctor.

          I'm triggered by your micro-aggressive post-modernist matriarchal trope and will now be retiring to my safe space. Or in other words, you're pissing me off now love...I'm off down the pub.

          Indeed they do. The caveat is that we should be willing to set them aside as information warrants, lest we commit the ecological fallacy.

          That's funny. I think it might also explain some forms of mansplaining.

          It kind of does as a stereotype.

          The mansplaining thing? Oh, yeah. The word is just another way posmodern believers make something general to all of humanity about gender.

          True, but stupid has no gender. It's impossible to underestimate reading comprehension on twitter.
