      For instance, you are trying to use this technique on me right now and miserably failing, because we can all tell that you are very clumsily trying to imitate someone who shares my values without actually understanding what they are

      I'm not trying to persuade you, I'm trying to persuade others who are reading the thread. People most likely not participating in the conversation because they're on the fence

      Yeah, that's also the only reason I have these conversations, and the way to do that is to appeal to the values I actually share with them, by using someone like you as a negative example to hold in contempt and disgust

      So you persuasion techniques are explicitly and openly based on dehumanizing your interlocutor?

      And specifically the purpose of ridicule is to define the bounds of acceptable behavior to everyone else, not convince the person who you are ridiculing of something

      Well, I'm glad we've retreated from the explicit endorsement of holding disgust for others, at least 🤷‍♀️

      Sometimes ridiculous behavior is deserving of ridicule. Sometimes contemptible behavior is deserving of contempt.

      Replying to @Cybren @arthur_affect and

      Agreed. Trouble is that when you get humans together in a group, and start ridiculing some other group, sober assessments of when, exactly, ridicule is or is not justified aren't always made.

      Arthur admitted elsewhere in this thread that he was a conflict theorist "born in the womb". So you can't trust him to make this assessment for you. Or trust the bits of info he has cherry-picked about Scott's blog to be fair. I recommend you read Scott's blog for yourself.
