        Any top-tier book recommendations on that subject? Academic works are fine; however, I don't have access to periodicals or journals. Thanks!

        Awesome, thanks! Looking it up in the library catalog, I'm intrigued already and have put it on my list.

        That's not a refutation. It's an appeal to "authority" .

        You’re an anime character who starts dropping logical fallacies when the reply to “you are misunderstanding conceptX” is “here is a book on what I mean by my understanding of conceptX”, take the sock off your dick and go to a library

        that's still not a refutation. But hey, it's fine, you look white according to your picture, no wonder you have no idea what violence is.

        I don't owe you a debate, I don't even owe you reading recommendations; I gave you the latter because you'd benefit from it. If you don't want to take it, why on earth would I waste my life spending time with you?

        When I told an immigration officer that I studied "literature and culture," he wondered what I meant by studying "culture," how do you do that. Next thing I know I'm 2-minutes into an impromptu lecture: "See, there was this British guy called Raymond Williams..."

        As scary as this sounds I think it's also pretty keen! That agent learned something fanatic, and maybe kept the interest or told someone that didn't know about the topic✨

        Honestly I don’t care what immigration agents learn unless it’s “being a weapon of the state is bad, I should quit and volunteer for a food bank”

        This sounds dismissive of me, my apologies. I do agree with your response and I'd hate to come across as if I do not.

        Not dismissive, not aimed at you - poking at the state.

        I work with immigration agents and can confirm that this is one of their two archetypes.

        The other one totally lacks interest and motivation and waves everyone through?
