Venkatesh Rao@vgr·Jul 7, 2014Replying to @pmarca@pmarca hehe "tone deaf" is an interesting metaphor. Suggests "sing same tune", "play to choir" and "join the chorus" as counter-metaphors33
James King@M_Gauche·Jul 7, 2014Replying to @vgr@vgr @pmarca That happens when you insist that your critic view the world from your POV. A legit argument is supportable from ANY position.1
Venkatesh Rao@vgrReplying to @M_Gauche.@M_Gauche @pmarca in my exp, happens when critics insist that there *is* only one pov: theirs on behalf of whom presume to speak for.4:36 PM · Jul 7, 2014
James King@M_Gauche·Jul 7, 2014Replying to @vgr@vgr @pmarca So your excuse for limiting the playing field on your behalf is to claim that your opposition does it? Pretty convenient.2
Venkatesh Rao@vgr·Jul 7, 2014Replying to @M_Gauche@M_Gauche @pmarca I'm saying don't attempt to think for others. Let a million pov's flourish. No thought police OR criminals. Only thinkers.1
James King@M_Gauche·Jul 7, 2014Replying to @vgr@vgr I think you guys need to not let @pmarca turn you from "thought criminals" into "thought police."
