    I realize you’re a newlywed and all, I just think the kind of guys she was criticizing fall well within your empathic domain.

    Yeah I'm among the subset of people who can relate to a certain antipathy for the cooler than thou cliques in school. How about you, jon?

      It was a WTF reference. Wtg said she was so objective and fact-based that she was basically Spock, and I raised my eyebrow (see what I did there?) at that. So jon tried to flip it back on me because jon sticks up for his friends, even the profoundly sanctimonious and pretentious among them.

      WTG claims she's objective and fact based??????

      Yeah, sometimes the lack of self awareness burns. I find that it correlates with leftist viewpoints.

          I thought her comment was hilarious.

          I’ve worn masks with 15% lung function and I group these guys who claim they can’t breathe through them in the same category as the progressive snowflakes that claim to be harmed by disagreement.

          Only non-witches get due process.

            Well believe it or not that guy never crossed my mind in this. I am sure he's a douche, though I suspect not an incel and it never really occurred to me that her insult was anything but a clever cheap shot. Apparently you thought it hit on a truth about him, which is strange. Maybe you know more about him than that one tweet.

              The "I can't breathe properly through a mask" complaints often originate from the same dipshits who claim that masks are ineffective.

                Here's how I see the mask thing. I don't mind wearing a mask. If it makes everyone around me more comfortable, I'll wear a diving bell. But ASK me to wear the diving bell, don't tell me I have to do it, and especially don't tell me if I don't wear a diving bell you're goi g to harass me over it. Because if you do, I'm going to shove the diving bell up your ass.

                      Bump for jon. Since we've established a location encompassed by my empathic domain, I wonder if your idea of your own domain intersects at that point.

                        I can be very empathic, but sometimes it takes effort.

                            I can't tell. Is this an argument?

                            If you two are going to insult each other, at least bring it down to my level, so I (we) can follow along and keep track of who's winning.
                            Even your arguments are stuffy. Geesh, dumb it down a bit, OK? And use some fight'n words or something. Small words, two syllables max.

                            Ax, step in here would 'ya bud??

                              I can empathize with the holders of antipathy too.

                                I made what is for me a standard deconstruction of an insult from a woke white person, but since the woke white person was in this case a pretty young girl, jon jumped to the conclusion that I hated her because she reminded me of girls who wouldn't have sex with me.

                                  You didn’t deconstruct her insult, you just insulted her with a woke racial epithet. I was deconstructing your insult, which I actually found surprising.

                                    You didn't, and apparently don't, understand the irony of using an insult of a person's own invention against them. It doesn't have to be made in earnest, it only has to fit with the definitions they invented for it.

                                        What it most resembles is two one-legged men who, in a moment of madness, have decided to enter an ass-kicking contest.

                                          I earnestly think she is a different flavor of a Karen by the definitions in use currently, yes. That doesn't mean that I love the insult. I may love turning it around on the people who love using it.
