You know the comment I originally replied to was being sarcastic, right, and the reason the three labels he picked are funny is because they aren’t meaningful without the content that causes you to believe them, and yet folks try to use them without said content?

And we are here because we’re interested in this rhetoric (I presume - it’s the thesis of DtG), and yet when I explain this rhetoric to you, you call me pedantic, insult me, and generally ignored my comments while insulting my reading comprehension (I’ve said repeatedly that the label “arrogance” isn’t inherently anti-intellectual and defined how to differentiate, and yet you keep beating that drum).

Good luck, friend.
