• Rebutting willful stupidity

    From jillery@21:1/5 to All on Tue Apr 18 00:31:56 2023
    T.O. alumnus Aron Ra recently teamed up with Gutsick Gibbon aka Erica
    to criticize a particularly odious YEC video called "Genesis Impact",
    produced by Genesis Apologetics, yet another Creationist group that
    some people claim aren't involved in indoctrinating children.

    <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfeS8sU-PWs>

    I have in the past posted several links to Youtube videos from Aron Ra
    and Erica. In this video, Erica is particularly energized, as she and
    Aron discuss some of the willfully stupid comments made in the
    Creationist video which she knows to be factually incorrect.

    The above is a link to part 3 of Aron Ra's series. The following is a
    link to his introduction:

    <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnSSMu7-ADQ>

    Some people might trivialize these videos as "someone is wrong on the Internet", but that would be willful blindness. Anti-evolution PRATTs
    are no different from flat-earth PRATTs are no different from
    Moon-landing hoax PRATTs are no different from alien-conspiracy PRATTs
    are no different from stolen election PRATTs. All of these are
    long-standing, continuing, and deliberate campaigns to replace facts
    with misinformation and mindless made-up crap.

    Wait. You're saying that Dubya Bush won Florida fair & square?

    HYPOCRISY IS NOT AN ARGUMENT!

    Instead of wetting your pants over WHAT people say, why not try to grasp
    WHY they say it? Ultimately, that is the key to convincing them that they're wrong.

    Here's something that I've only been recommending for like 20 years now:

    Go up to a random person and start talking about the 9/11 conspiracy. Wait
    for them to roll their eyes, if not denounce you as a "Conspiracy Theory Kook" and then ask them:

    "How did 19 men coordinate 4 hijackings, all on the same day, crashing three
    of the planes into buildings and one into a field, if they had not conspired to do so?"

    The fact is, very often the people running around denouncing the outliers
    are the idiots...

    Again: Try to figure out WHY someone holds a position, says something.

    DON'T merely decide that you know, that you somehow "Figured it out."
    Ask them. Test their answer. Look for consistency... of lack thereof.

    ELECTION DENIER! CONSPIRACY KOOK! HATER!

    There's no doubt in my mind that Florida was stolen. None. So
    instead of denouncing Trumpers for believing something that we
    all know know is always a very real possibility for ANY election,
    I look for their reasons.

    Of course they want it to be true. They want a world where everyone
    agree with them, just like leftists. But besides that...

    Personally I believe they were predisposed to believe the election
    was rigged because of the massive media bias against Trump.

    Ironically, it was the Republicans who gutted all of our "Fair Election"
    laws, "Equal Time." But regardless of fault, there was a massive media
    bias and that predisposed them to believe in a rigged system where
    "The Establishment" made the decisions and then told us what they
    were...

    Secondly, the way the election was held INVITED question. They had
    changed the rules -- "Because CoronaPanic" -- fairly last minutes, and
    there was no transparency at all. There were no checks and balances.
    No debate, no discussion, no airing of concerns and methods for
    addressing them. None.

    If the election had gone the other way, Trump was declared winner,
    given the circumstances there would have been a massive "Election
    Denying" campaign. Guaranteed.

    So, why do Creationists believe in Creationism? They've been telling us
    for years, generations. They've never not told us.

    That some people conspired to crash jets into building is NOT the
    conspiracy over which people roll their eyes. So the more relevant
    challenge here would be to find any reasoning in JTEM's fallacies.

    Given that almost invariably, over several years, he has
    acted like the south end of a north-bound horse, spreading
    personal insults with abandon and (also nearly always)
    taking comments out of context in order to do the former, I
    think I was rather generous. Of course, you may well be more
    generous toward such behavior, or you may simply lack the
    extended experience of him and his perpetual efforts to

    It's rather difficult to tell how solid his groundwork may
    be when he has refused many times to support his various
    assertions, instead insultingly berating his correspondents
    for not doing what he himself should do. ("Google it,
    moron!"). And when someone *does* "Google it" and finds no
    support for his assertions he insults them further, and
    *still* refuses to provide any reference supporting his
    contentions.

    All in all, I think "putz" is rather mild.

    Since "putz" and "crackpot" identify different sets of

    You're rationalizing. Worse: You're obfuscating. The point is that
    you're a dog trained to bark at the word "Conspiracy."

    And you're proving it.

    There isn't any, you fucking idiot. You're a dog, a well trained dog. You are trained to bark when you hear certain words, one of them being "Conspiracy."

    That is the point of the exercise. It exposes your training.

    You BELIEVE you're thinking and you're just responding as trained.

    The same dogs that bark when they hear people shouting about a 2020
    conspiracy to steal the election usually admit to the 2000 election theft.

    You're retarded. You can't formulate a position & articulate same, but this
    is not true for normal people. Listen to their reasons if you want any hope
    of convincing them of something else.

    Go up to a random person and start talking about the 9/11 conspiracy. Wait
    for them to roll their eyes, if not denounce you as a "Conspiracy Theory Kook"
    and then ask them:

    "How did 19 men coordinate 4 hijackings, all on the same day, crashing three

    Find the fallacy in JTEMs reasoning.

    Perhaps in morphing a conspiracy *among the hijackers* into
    a conspiracy with those *not* among the hijackers? IOW an
    amalgam of rapidly-moving goalposts and the straw on which
    they rest?

    We are all waiting for JTEM coming to realize the mistake he made in the >>>>>>logic department.

    I suspect that you're as sure as I am that he made no
    mistake; it was stated exactly as he intended, to have the
    result he intended. IOW, his fallacious "reasoning" was
    almost certainly intentional.


    Even if JTEM posted an intentional self-parody

    I wrote that I believe it was intentional, not that it was a
    self-parody (whatever that might mean in this context).


    I don't dispute what you wrote.

    I didn't say you did.


    OK, a stupid Glenn word game. My turn:

    I didn't say you didn't say I did.


    , current events have
    demonstrated there are too many people who are inclined to believe
    even the most blatantly obvious willful stupidity.

    Absolutely; I see it every day.

    Plus the fact
    there are a number of people who count non-response as affirmation,

    The irrational beliefs of such people are not only not my
    problem, they're impossible to refute other than with facts,
    which too many today rate below "feelings" as a way to come
    to decisions and conclusions.

    justifies affirmatively calling out willful stupidity. You don't have >>>>to do it. That doesn't make you better than those who do.

    I assume that since I never even implied such, that you're
    not referring to me, but to the general "you".


    Assume away.

    Given no contradiction I will; thanks.


    I am not responsible for your assumptions.

    [JTEM is a putz]

    All in all, I think "putz" is rather mild.

    "Never let your adversary drag you down to his level."

    Just an observation: "Crackpot" is about beliefs, while
    "putz" is about personality.

    Like GondwanaTalks Verhaegen aka "littoral homo" our friend JTEM is a
    Believer in the Aquatic Ape Fairytale. Which imho makes him a genuine
    crackpot. Where the undue aggression originates I don't know, Maybe he
    was abused as a child or something.

    Granted, he appears to be both, but I suspect he doesn't actually
    espouse most of his crackpottery;

    Actually his crackpottery has a softer side. Take a look at
    sci.anthropology.paleo and witness him sucking GondwanaTalk's dick
    and whispering sweet nothings into his ear.

    So I wouldn't rule out the possibility that JTEM is simply head over
    heels with "littoral homo" and prepared to do anything to protect and
    defend the reputation of his hero.

    Not ruling it out, but that's how trolls operate.

    it's primarily his chosen way to incite flamewars when his personality >>> >>doesn't suffice.

    I wouldn't call it a flamewar when it's just trite insults and abuse.

    IOW, his crackpottery is simply trolling, while his putzery (totally
    a word) is him. IMHO, and YMMV.

    As I see it, rather than trolling he is just venting his spleen, the
    poor bloke.

    You could be correct; years of experience with his posts in
    t.o says you're too generous.

    I'll second that. I can't see that he deserves any attention at all.


    Whatever you call it, it deserves to be noted because:

    1. Some people agree with it.
    2. Not noting it can be regarded as affirmation.

    While I'm sure we'll continue to disagree on this, as on
    other things, it's also worth noting that:

    1) Those who agree with him, and with his pal marc, will
    almost certainly continue to agree, since people generally
    cannot be argued out of a position or belief not arrived at
    rationally.
    2) In general, those who regard silence as affirmation
    belong to the group noted in 1).

    are excellent that he never will.

    Off his meds and feverishly picking his nose, Pancho Sanza drooled:

    JTEM my god of usenet I worshipped him as he wrote:

    See? I can do it as well!

    But you didn't. You parroted some words without ever grasping them.

    You switch handles, pretend you're different people. All my posts are
    under "JTEM," my initials.

    Not the same thing at all. Not the reason motives, not the same effect.

    You're a fraud.

    So, again, you are no better than a dog, trained to react to certain words.
    One of them being "Conspiracy."

    AND you still have to find out WHY people hold certain positions if you
    want a chance of changing their minds.

    Well. In your case it's mental illness, so you're helpless... a lost cause.

    You are a critter to be poked through the monkey bars, and that's
    exactly what I do.

    If what you say above was correct, then there would be no point to
    replying to anybody about anything. In fact, nobody can know with
    certainty which posts have what effects on anybody. Also, people can
    be totally rational but ignorant or misinformed. Finally, even
    stipulating no effects on anybody else, there can be benefits to the
    repliers themselves, a point you make yourself from time to time.

    So I wouldn't rule out the possibility that JTEM is simply head over
    heels with "littoral homo" and prepared to do anything to protect and
    defend the reputation of his hero.

    Not ruling it out, but that's how trolls operate.

    it's primarily his chosen way to incite flamewars when his personality >>>>> doesn't suffice.

    I wouldn't call it a flamewar when it's just trite insults and abuse.

    IOW, his crackpottery is simply trolling, while his putzery (totally >>>>> a word) is him. IMHO, and YMMV.

    As I see it, rather than trolling he is just venting his spleen, the
    poor bloke.

    You could be correct; years of experience with his posts in
    t.o says you're too generous.

    I'll second that. I can't see that he deserves any attention at all.

    Himself a Hero.

    [JTEM is a putz]

    All in all, I think "putz" is rather mild.

    "Never let your adversary drag you down to his level."

    Just an observation: "Crackpot" is about beliefs, while
    "putz" is about personality.

    Like GondwanaTalks Verhaegen aka "littoral homo" our friend JTEM is a >>> Believer in the Aquatic Ape Fairytale. Which imho makes him a genuine >>> crackpot. Where the undue aggression originates I don't know, Maybe he >>> was abused as a child or something.

    Granted, he appears to be both, but I suspect he doesn't actually
    espouse most of his crackpottery;

    Actually his crackpottery has a softer side. Take a look at
    sci.anthropology.paleo and witness him sucking GondwanaTalk's dick
    and whispering sweet nothings into his ear.

    So I wouldn't rule out the possibility that JTEM is simply head over
    heels with "littoral homo" and prepared to do anything to protect and >>> defend the reputation of his hero.

    Cite. Oh wait... you don't know how.... nevermind.

    You're literally "Arguing" that you have no idea what you've said, that you need me to "Prove" to you that you said these stupid things.

    It's called "Disassociation." You "Disassociate" from your own stupid trolling.

    You are MAJOR fucked up...

    And you scrolled up from that reply to you posting under this jillary sock puppet
    and saw that, yes, I was really replying to you posting under this jillary sock puppet?

    You're intentionally trolling in a pathetic attempt to masque your stupidity as pure trolling efforts.

    No, sweet cheeks, you genuinely are a goddamn idiot...
