Do I have to throw in trendy Bay Area techbro jargon like "heuristic" and "pattern-matching" and "Overton window" and "metis" and so forth or can I just say "Lie down with dogs, get up with fleas"

It is astonishing how FUCKING STUPID a theoretically at least mildlly intelligent person comes off if they're just determined to refuse to believe in simple concepts like "racism"pic.twitter.com/N5jiwQe7CJ

By the way, this the same post in which SCOTT HIMSELF clearly explained he is not a feminist, and used the exact same argument I would use for why his dipshit fans keep arguing he must be a feministpic.twitter.com/TnJsi592FW

Logic bros want validity to be simple equations. But it’s not. It’s probabilities.https://sesquiotic.com/2021/01/30/authority-what-authority/ …

we can't skip over that intro where his "aha, i get fashion now" discovery is that rich people are copying poor people's "fashion" because there are $80 shirts that just say "GHETTO" in big block letters

The problem isn't logical fallacies, which really are a useful tool for determining truth as part of a system of critical thinking. The problem is knowing when to use a logical syllogism and when to use a truism. Truisms sometimes fail but they're good enough for survival.

That's an absolutely wild article. Like, the conclusion is either that he's adopting reactionary politics, even though they're blatantly wrong, due to exposure, or that he's doing so because of fashion or affect or some other nonsense.

And instead of being like, "Oh, I guess my whole political project is absolute nonsense grounded in nothing but what's nearby or what seems cool," he just says, "I'm an anti-leftist, I suppose," and moves on. What?
