    I’ve never seen someone other than my middle school students resist critical thinking this hard.

    My first comment was asking you what you THOUGHT THEY meant. And you said I don’t know. You couldn’t even try to work it out? When it’s blatantly obvious. When they even explained it in their comment? They literally outlined what they wanted in their comment. Why did you ignore that part of it to focus on natural vs unnatural?

    You’re also already arguing about them - even after you said you don’t know. Its getting real fucking obvious you’re just looking for a fight. That’s why you had to push an argument onto me - that you then pretended you didn’t do.

      Yikes. Putting someone this rigid and unempathetic in a teaching position makes me worried for society. These kind of values are what makes people polarized and unable to understand one another. It’s the opposite of what we need right now.

      You’ve gone to doing exactly what I was trying not to do with OP, i.e. to put words in my mouth. Somehow you now think your assumptions about what I meant are more valid than what I say I meant. I don’t see a point in continuing this conversation since I’d just be a hostage to your interpretations. Bye.

        Get called out for being disingenuous and then run away. Nice.

        When did I put any words in your mouth? What did I say you said? What did I imply you said?
