Note that the argument on my video isn’t the video itself—it’s whether the video is appropriate or not.
It’s generally considered acceptable here to comment on style and presentation, and posters generally appreciate the feedback. It’s… weird, to put it lightly, that you are responding to neutral-toned feedback with hostility.
This place likes to pretend that it’s counter-norm, but it parrots the university line at the drop of a hat.
I’m not sure what you mean by “counter-norm”, or why this place would like to pretend it is that.
Perfect soviet doublespeak.
I’m confused. I thought I knew what “doublespeak” was—a rhetorical technique described in 1984 wherein one simultaneously asserts a proposition and its opposite—and I don’t see how the above would qualify.

It reminds me of years ago on Wikipedia, back when we thought neutrality meant odious people should at least be of use in defending their viewpoints, and tried to actually interact with the politer variety of neo-Nazi to see if they could actually add anything worth knowing to the articles about them. Always, about two or three responses in, they’d reliably go non-linear, in ways very like we’re seeing here. This substantiates the view that “race realists” under whatever label aren’t the best at working an epistemology.

Alluding to an academic conspiracy was typical too.
Protect your ego! Insult the outsider! Even if he’s been here longer than you...
Clearly he is a fascist.
Listen: are you a man with integrity or not? Address the video I posted. I rewrote the intro and others on here have a transcript. You have no excuses to continue the personal attack. Either address my argument… or make fun of me, and get rep points.
The prior will make you smarter; the latter will get you closer to getting laid.
I have no interest in addressing your video. That is not my purpose here. I saw you making what looked like a mistake, and felt the need to point it out. I also pointed out confusing parts of your comment in hope that you could resolve the confusion.
I have no interest in insulting you or making fun of you, nor have I done so. I also have no interest in “getting laid”, and I’d prefer you keep your opinions regarding my private life to yourself.
I’m taking a 24 hour break, thom. I was over worked up, and I let it spill into this comment thread, overreacting to what people said.
I’ve probably acted like a jerk. not completely devoid of purpose, but a jerk nonetheless. I’d like to apologize for all of that. I had no call to be so rude to all of youl
Not to worry, I’ve gone off the deep end too, memorably when engaging with SilasBarta when I had first started taking Adderall regularly. There’s a reason we use the phrase “mind-killer” for these topics.

Thank you for this phrase.

And nobody’s been here longer than me.
Delete: hopefully nobody saw that.

Gah. I suppose I should repost this to the top.

Perhaps in a few days Aurini will confess that his post was a mind-killing experiment.
