@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias Everything he says is premised on his conservative shit and there is no way to engage with it without first admitting those premises. That's why it's begging the question
Making a vague is statement at some point does not remove any of that. It just means he's fooling you
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias The is statement about opening debate is not the real argument and not his meaning. That's the pretend play
The "arrangements" he's open to will invariably include him and he will only talk about and engage with people that engage with his stupidity
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias I didn't. You're taking an overly literal reading of both me and wanye to give wanye far too much credit. It's not reasonable
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias My inability to express that while answering your vague responses that give his words undue deference is not just a me problem
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias No, I meant what I said
Everything wanye says is manipulation that attempts to present his priors as the only reasonable position. It is never about the argument he claims to be making because without his dumb priors nothing he says makes the slightest sense

It's just a rephrasing of this, which is the same thing I've been saying this whole time. It's impossible to say everything in these short tweets while I'm working
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias Everything he discusses is assuming weird conservative priors in order to make it seem that things like reopening discussion of universal suffrage is reasonable
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias I think you've read what I said too literally/directly
Wanye would react with violence if anyone tried to take his vote away. The idea of a suffrage debate starts with the idea others have to justify themselves to him. The is starts with his ought, which is what I always said
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias https://t.co/xcL6TJ6yxl
How does your agreement wanye is talking about women's suffrage being reopened for debate square with this, then?
@Lilonion7@mattyglesias I truly don't understand your point. Can you explain? Are you saying that the argument - that universal suffrage may be reopened as a live debate in the future - necessarily assumes the belief that women have to justify their vote? That seems obviously false to me. Is ought gap.
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias The tweet is about gender and politics. He's clearly talking about women voting
Obviously he can't beg the question, in your mind, because there's no context to these things. They're individual unconnected statements without any real meaning
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias Because that's what he does every time anyone dares impact him with these assumptions
I would bet any money you want there are no arrangements for suffrage where he loses his rights. He's only open to taking others
@jamespthomas92@mattyglesias Do you think the debate will be about men losing their votes?
You seem to just be letting him get away with vague posting because I guarantee you if he thought the debate was about an arrangement where he would lose his vote he'd be talking violence
