@PhilosophyExp If I understand the genetic fallacy correctly, it's that the reasons for X aren't identical to the reasons for X at origin.
-
@PhilosophyExp@JakCharlton Granted there, but I'm less convinced with hashtags: Harder to trace origins, less affiliative, and open to all.
@SIN_Notung @JakCharlton Hmmm. Can't say I've been too keen on the way Suey Park has had her profile raised.

-
@PhilosophyExp@JakCharlton Me neither, but it wasn't a situation (AFAIK) where rational voices unwittingly agreed with her. -
@PhilosophyExp@JakCharlton What I mean is - all those who actually wanted to "cancel Colbert" were nutters, not just Park. -
@SIN_Notung@JakCharlton Right, but origins were clear, and outcome in terms of Park's profile were predictable, therefore... -
@PhilosophyExp@JakCharlton ...so it could happen I guess. Ok - well we should judge each case on its merits then! :p -
@SIN_Notung@JakCharlton Exactly! :)
