@dibblego @puffnfresh What do you take me to be advocating?

@d_christiansen @puffnfresh That "respect" contributes to the goal more so than "having a beard" does (or any other arbitrary thing).

@dibblego @puffnfresh If you can't see that treating people well makes them more inclined to listen to you.....

@d_christiansen @puffnfresh This is called, "the argument from incredulity." It is a very unconvincing logical fallacy.

@dibblego @puffnfresh Again, do you know actual research demonstrating this? Otherwise success with vinegar can be due to lack of honey...

@d_christiansen @puffnfresh I don't need research to spot an obvious logical fallacy.

@dibblego @puffnfresh You've done precisely the same by citing "wall of experience". You've made the same positive claim.

@dibblego @puffnfresh Claim A: Respect > Brutality. Claim B: Brutality > Respect.
