(And of course, its vice versa, just because you (or someone with your views) got killed doesn’t mean you’re right, which admittedly is less common in history, but nonetheless something to be aware of to evaluate arguments critically.)

I’m on this episode and remember I had them on one of my conversations. So I’ve redownload them and post them just for you

Hot take but some arguments and opinions are so bad the person deserves to be attacked.
