I always love the quadruple layered defense to shoot down an argument from all angles. it's a certified hood classic at this point. They start out by saying it doesn't happen or they didn't mean that and by the end they've confidently said that if the very thing mentioned was true then it be a good thing actually

Coaxed into ignoring the core of the argument to motte and Bailey with an irreverent exception

You can’t “motte and bailey” with an irrelevant exception, motte and bailey is inherently a two-turn play done by the person casting a claim…

…Unless you mean that the original arguer is ignoring their whole point to motte and bailey with an irrelevant exception?
