nice timalkin...dodge the question.
i expected nothing more or less.
the problem, really, is that your question is meaningless. it is meaningless because you refuse to take actual contexts into account. it is pretty obvious why this follows--your question would not exist as it does were you to take context into account. there was a period not so long ago which was so organized that conservative superficiality had to be taken seriously. that period is over, and now this superficiality sinks back into being what it was before it enjoyed a brief and catastrophic period of being ascendant.
so since there's no reason to take such nonsense seriously any more, not even as a positioning move in a debate, the problem remains--your ability to defend your position hinges on your ability to control which information is framed in or out. the thread has surpassed those limits, and you cannot call it back.
so you either answer the question or the game ends.
