History will label the early 21st century The Age of Derping Tribes. "They built out the 'Net and used it to restate priors ad infinitum"

Being able to identify derping seems quite useful. I notice it the most in "outgroup bad" style rhetoric. Any ideas on how to fight the tendency? I think it drives demon seeds and contextual scissor statements and those scare me. One trigger?:https://twitter.com/alexeyguzey/status/1028946124785246208 …

probably a useful skill to cultivate, and that seems to be a good heuristic, but I find it easier to simply disengage when I notice myself or the other person derping... if the state of play is going to change in a way that moves my counter, I'm content to wait for it passively
