Imo this comment is lowering the quality of the discourse. Like, if I steelman and expand what you’re saying, it seems like you’re trying to say something like “this response is pinging a deceptiveness-heuristic that I can’t quite put my finger on”. That phrasing adds information, and would prompt other commenters to evaluate and either add evidence of deceptiveness, or tell you you’re false-positiving, or something like that. But your actual phrasing doesn’t do that, it’s basically name calling.
So, mod note: I strong-downvoted your comment and decided to leave it at that. Consider yourself frowned at.
No, I said what I meant. And not just what I meant, but what many other people reading but not commenting here are saying; rather than count I’ll simply say ‘at least a dozen’. This response, like all her other responses, are making her sound more and more like a grifter, not an honest dealer, with every statement made. The fact that when called to defend her actions she can’t manage anything that resembles honest argument more than it does dishonest persuasion is a serious flaw; if it doesn’t indicate that she has something to hide, it indicates that she is incapable of being a ‘good citizen’ even when she’s in the right.
My primary update from every comment Kat makes is that this is a situation that calls for Conflict Theory, not Mistake Theory.
