According to my notes and emails, Nate repeatedly said things like “I have not yet ruled out [uncharitable hypothesis about how TurnTrout is reasoning]” in order to—according to him—accomplish his conversational objectives / because his “polite” statements were apparently not getting his point across. I don’t remember what specific uncharitable things he said (the chat was on 7/19/22).

I might come back and add more context later.
Thank you.
