Some time ago I responded rather systematically and definitively to a fairly conventional Democrat (who think’s she’s voting for peace and justice, of course) who was attacking me repeatedly on Twitter. After I responded she sputtered a bit, answered none of my arguments, and went away.
Now she’s back, in the comments of this post. She says she hasn’t heard from me in a while. I’d say it’s the other way around: after I dismantled all her arguments, I haven’t heard from her.
She’s wondering how the election turned out for me, she says. So after all this, she is still caught in the Democrat/Republican charade and thinks I was supporting Romney.
I don’t waste my time with someone who so defiantly refuses to entertain an unconventional thought for once in her life. I responded to her because I thought my responses might be useful to other people who encounter similar arguments.
Here are my replies to her. I hope you enjoy them. And then the video version.
