Don’t kid yourself. You didn’t make an argument less a fortress of them.
Sailer is one of the best and most consistent people working. And if he doesn’t waste his time on you that’s just his better judgment. Maybe you should find a better hill to intellectually die on, so to speak.
I’m more tolerant than most public folk because I study the way people engage in antisocial behavior, and particularly how they fantasize, lie, and deny. So in that sense I’m studying the masses of the mentally unhealthy.
Most others won’t waste their time because they are just trying to inform, counter-bad information, or persuade.

In economic research we call what I do ‘slumming’ – what it takes to understand the slum occupates is living among them.

Steve won’t waste his time.
