This is indeed a trivial argument...What I argued was pretty simple. You claimed terrorists are really evil (lol @ slave morality). I said they're relatively trite if that metric of evil were applied in a more universal less racist way. You still can't grasp this trivial argument, electing instead to name-drop people that have nothing to do with this.
Notice that the repertoire of this guy is not very elastic... He is still trying to characterize anyone who does not approve the killing of civilians, including women and children, as a racist.
I have demonstrated yet how stupid this is a few posts ago and there's no need to repeat myself. However, he insists in the same point. Why?
It's easy to figure out why. He is fulfilling his agenda. He is trying to morally immobilize anyone who could possibly reject terrorist acts by calling them "racists".
Notice the need to characterize me as "one among his peers". LOL... That's because he knows there's something very different here...I've mentioned multiple times that you & peers
Now he is trying to seem subtle, but to no avail. ISIS types are simpletons, he says; this common sense statement almost seems to be a moral condemnation; but he immediately says that those simpletons "at least have more legitimate grievances than their first world counterparts".are the same lowest common denominator of their respective societies as the ISIS types. Ie. simpletons only capable of seeing the world in terms of good/evil,and therefore easy manipulated by what they're prompted to feel (mostly simple anger). The main difference is the ISIS types at least have more legitimate grievances than their first world counterparts.
In a nutshell, he is always trying to make us believe that terrorists have the moral right to put civilians to pieces; but we do not have the moral right to stand against them.
Also in a nutshell: Why this guy is always intellectually dishonest? Because he always (systematically) practice double standards.
For instance, he says that I'm not academically prepared; but from the moment I quote an author... he says (and repeats ad nauseam) that I'm doing "name dropping".
He says that if we dare to condemn terrorist acts, we are racists; but when the terrorists are practicing genocide (for instance, the Yazidis), well, that's because they have "legitimate grievances".
He says that "good and evil" is a simpleton way of see things (and this is a very sensitive argument for anyone who have studied Nietzsche), but at the same time he divides the world in "good and evil" all the same: for him, "white racists" are evil, and poor terrorists so full of "legitimate grievances" are good.
Can you finally see why I said that this guy is an intellectual fraud and a moral abomination?
