I haven’t read the whole thread yet, but so far the choice line is:

I like how you just dropped the “Vance is interested in right authoritarianism” like it’s a known fact to base your entire point on. Vance is the clearest demonstration of a libertarian the republicans have in high office. It’s an absurd ad hominem that you try to mask in your wall of text.

    not much emphasis on boring normal “L” and “G”

    “Look I’m not really saying G-word and L-word are normal, but I might be willing to invite them to my BBQs if they never mention it, hate rainbows, and allow straight people to cut in line ahead of them as a civic duty.”

    Also wait is not even “B” ‘normal’ enough for this guy?

    one sort by controversial later and they are indeed a culture war person

    Instant regret.

    This is asked in all sincerity: Why is there a coherent “community” of lesbians, gays, and transgender people? What is the important linking commonality that makes those groups into a community?

    Gee I wonder. Also new rule whenever someone posts that they’re asking something in sincerity or just wanting to understand or “confused”, you’re allowed to laugh in their face before they can finish. Seriously does anyone even fall for this anymore? It’s so obvious.

      They are also concerned about t levels in athletes, and IQ comes up. Which he defends with “If you think none of these tests are actually measuring anything of value, you must need to explain why they correlate so well with life outcomes related to cognition.”

      I think a problem with ssc people is that they dont realize they are culture warriors.
