Have another ‘debate’ coming up. But I’m extremely …. cautious of them. Why? Because (I had this conversation with an interviewer recently) it often takes three or four logical steps to get from where advocates today are standing, to understand anything I’m saying. And (as two trolls have succeeded in infuriating me lately), I have reached a point in my life where I am no longer willing to invest in exposing a disingenuous debate partner. And I am not able, in an hour conversation, to move someone across so great a frame. If we still have people that don’t understand the many things that should be obvious (evolution, relativity, justificationism vs science) then why should they be able to understand propertarianism when it rewrites so many pseudoscientific frames of reference?
