Reply to comment by Ill_Department_2055 in On Whether “Personhood” is a Normative or Descriptive Concept by ADefiniteDescription

It is difficult to take the moralization of -isms seriously from someone who doesn't place any importance on being human to begin with.

Huh?

Seeking to elevate the status of non-humans means I don't like humans and can't dislike racists?

What the what now?

You are not elevating the non-human, you are denigrating the Human. Feigning outrage is cliché and banal. You asked a question and I answered. You are upset because I did not answer in the way you liked. Accusations of -Ism's (and the assignment of any kind of moral weight to such accusations) is the last refuge for the incompetent.

How in the world do you get that from anything I said?

So now you just don't think racism exists?

I should have simply posted this in response to every single one of your replies to me. You do not ask questions in good faith. Okay, that is fine. You don't have to ask questions in good faith. If this is the case we don't have to speak to each other.

Oh, look at that, you've argued yourself into a corner for all the world to see, but you can't deal, so you accuse me of bad faith.

C'est la vie. Better luck next time!
