@hbdchick The fact that 'correct' usage doesn't even offer a way to talk about the phenomenon is a sign that it's not even trying. -
@Outsideness nonsense. dropping the usage of "pathological" doesn't mean you can't talk about the problem. i discuss it all the time! -
@hbdchick The controversy as I understand it: "We have to split from these sick maniacs." v. "If you call them 'sick' they'll be upset." -
@Outsideness not at all. what we're debating is: 1) should we try to understand the problem so we can fix it or should we just label it... -
@Outsideness ...with a term we happen to like. and 2) should we try communicating with the other side? i say 1) understand and 2) try. -
@hbdchick 1) We disagree, because I don't think 'pathological' impedes understanding. 2) Ditto, that's over. -
@Outsideness i think it does impede understanding. almost no one i talk to about this gets that this is an hbd problem. they think... -
@Outsideness ...there's something "wrong" or "sick" about the other side. calling it pathological is contributing to that confusion.
