(A.K.A. Non-Original Rants)

–Co-opting good stuff from all over the ‘Net and maybe some original thoughts—ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒE

What if we just started making people define their terms?

 I know that was kind of nebulous, but bear with me.  

I posted a little while ago about a a guy who has based his entire career on racism.  But he couldn’t define it.

Now we have a group who, in their manifesto, says “There’s no excuse for misogyny” calling Kayleigh McEnany a ‘blow up sex doll’.  

Maybe they need to learn the definition of hypocrisy??  

Or maybe if someone is spouting stupid, emphasize the stupidity by making them actually think about it.

For example (from a conversation related by a friend):

“I don’t trust people who aren’t wearing masks.  They might be unvaccinated and are lying about it.”

“Are you vaccinated?”

“Of course.”

“Do you believe vaccines are effective?”

“Yes..”

“So you believe that you are protected from the virus?”

“Yes.”

“Then why does it matter if anyone is wearing mask?  You’re certain that you are protected and that you can’t carry it.”

“Well….  ah…”

Time to start calling bullshit as it is.
