He can't control how she feels. For all the arguments that women are preconditioned by society to already be placating by default, to turn around and assume that the particular guy in question is the reason she feels the need to be placating is kinda disconnected from the broader feminist narrative.
Unless you cherry-pick every situation based on what suits your preconceived notions the best, in which case what actually sets you apart from a maga? That's literally the same thing they do, and it's not made less disingenuous by the fact that there's a kernel of truth to it (i.e., Tiger is a shitty person, but the particular argument you're making is still disingenuous)
Bro you are too emotionally invested in this argument. You want to claim im doing ad-hominem while calling me MAGA for not reading into these texts the same way you have. Trust me it is not that serious. Velma can be abrasive but she usually has a real point to make.
Women have been generally conditioned into being placative because it keeps them from getting hurt.
I'm not emotionally invested at all, that sounds like something you're imagining.
All I pointed out was that it's an ad hominem to attack an innocuous action just because the person is a jerk. That's literally what an ad hominem is. I wasn't "claiming" anything, just stating the simple truth.
I didn't "call" you maga, I said you're using the same disingenuous and irrational style of argumentation that they use.
If it's not that serious then why are you and Velma making a big deal out of the fact that he took an hour to respond? I'd agree that it's not that serious, but you're the one trying to make a mountain out of that molehill, so don't DARVO me about taking it too seriously.
Yeah, isn't that what I just said? That kinda contradicts your previous point that it's somehow his fault that she feels the need to be placating.
At least maintain consistency in your arguments instead of contradicting yourself whenever it seems convenient for you.
That you?
You gotta put the uno reverse card actually
So in other words, you have nothing intelligent to say? Is that why you're uglycrying?
