That title looks correct, but I do not visit her blog anymore as a rule—I was asked to leave, and I won’t violate that—so I’m not 100% certain. It wasn’t my position in the argument; the worst apparently came after I had left, when she started attacking random commenters. AFAIK my main role in the debacle was getting her riled up. My information on what happened after I left is secondhand, however, so I can’t point you at specific comments.
This may come back to haunt me re: prisoner’s dilemma but- I don’t respect rules that have vanishingly small chance of negative consequence if violated.
Surely she’s not monitoring IP addresses to call you out in public that you visited her blog when you said you didn’t? And even if she were- proxies! Google cache!
I’m an egoist, specifically of Objectivist bent; my rules exist and are followed for my sake, not hers. And I don’t stay where I’m not wanted; I can go where I am wanted, and it will be both a more productive use of my time, and more emotionally healthy for me.
You mean this? Sorry—don’t agree with your position.
Potential downvoters—would you rather a long argument or a polite expression of disagreement that doesn’t spawn into a huge debate?
