Even if you yourself have a better understanding than what you are willing to share, you are perpetuating ignorance.

    There are entire volumes written about the evolution of ethics and morality. This is not controversial, or fringe. It is beyond biology 101 and the scope of a wikipedia article, so I'm not surprised that this is news to you.
    There are entire volumes written about the Earth being flat as well. That doesn't make it true.

    You're wrong, but I'm not interested in "debating" people on the Internet who don't understand enough of what they're talking about to realize when they're wrong.

    Nah. You're interested in trolling.

    Otherwise, saying spurious things which bear no relation to the sources you cite to back them up, then getting all petulant, insulting and condescending when anyone tries to actually understand anything you're saying - that would be the opposite of your asserted persona.

    Either you are truly a man's man, enlightening and empowering men to not feel guilty for being awesome... or you're a whining little pissant whom can't actually stand behind his own BS.

    You're right. I have no idea what I'm talking about at all. I don't know why you even respond to me.

    I'm pretty sure that the volumes written about the evolution of ethics and morality do contain studies and facts, whereas the volumes written about the Earth being flat only contain fiction and mostly bullshit

    I'm also pretty sure you understand you cannot compare the two, nor assume these are somehow equal

    Sorry, I don't discuss ethics or morality with people in shithole countries.

    I just imagine Trump drinking diet cokes with his buddies in a writing room spitballing new ideas. One of them says he knows how they could get the people to call themselves shitholers on national tv.

    I had a similar thought when I heard the 'shithole' story on the ride in to work this morning. Toucher & Rich kept playing clips of cable news folks saying the word "shithole" on TV.

    And virtually all of them were in agreement that the countries in question were shitholes. Their problem isn't with calling the shithole a shithole. Their problem seems to be that Trump is only calling out the shitholes where brown people live.

    This is the travel-ban all over again. Trump picked on about 8% of the Muslim world, so he must be anti-muslim. Now he's picking on some tiny sliver of the world's non-white population so that means he's some kind of white supremacist.

    It's even funnier in that the evidence shows that Trump probably didn't even say it. The reporting came from people briefing reporters on what happened in the closed room. Washington Compost didn't actually hear him say it. And it's not like those tasked with briefing the reporters (Trump is their boss) would include something like "he said shithole countries" without a purpose.

    It's not that you don't. You can't. And of course you can't; get called out on your indefensible 'shithole' views, now you go on "LOL, I TROLS U" mode

    When you made an appeal to authority the other day - right after a reductio ad hitlerum - I thought you were certainly trolling. An appeal to the authority of Lenin... I genuinely chuckled. I thought it was a joke.
    I guess it wasn't. I honestly thought nobody could fit that many logical fallacy's into so few words without doing it on purpose.

    I don't expect you to reply since you've already ignored my link to the most prominent examples, but ask yourself this question: Why do animals use alarm signals when the act of alarming others makes it more likely for the individual to fall prey? Hint: this is a numbers game and has nothing to do with any touchy-feely stuff.
