This is the second most autistic conversation I’ve had today. Please allow me to rephrase the conversation till now.
" No one was arrested"
" One person was arrested"
“ONLY one person was arrested because they’re specifically NOT arresting anybody else. This is what we’re complaining about”
" So you agree one person was arrested?"
Like yes, we agree with you about the unimportant point that a nonzero amount of people were arrested, which specifically was NOT what OP meant, ya silly literalist.
I think it’s important to be truthful, and I also think it’s important that Epstein and Maxwell were both sent to jail.
And I think it’s even more important to push back against statements that are made not for their truth but just for their vibes, and the idea that calling out their lack of truth is somehow an opposition to the vibe. You can just say something true that expresses your feelings adequately, and it doesn’t contribute to an environment where truth doesn’t matter.
See, that’s where I disagree. I think we should take that time that we’re using to self-police people on our side and their language, and then spend that time beating the shit out of Nazis. Verbally, of course.
