also the "I probably am better placed to know this than you." is credentialism - you do have a PhD in this, but being well educated absolutely does not give you the right to *attack* anyone else, particularly amateurs (like me!), from engaging with the concepts in good faith (as in my initial post).
No, actually, I’m not going to do that. If you are going to make the claim that I have made an error in my understanding of Thomas Schilling’s concept of initiative, or that my argument that Dems should be more active not reactive in politics, then you need provide evidence for that claim.

I agree with her. She has the expertise and you don't. You should back off. Especially since you're a male and she's a woman with superior knowledge. You should respect her and defer to her.
oops! all mad
chat sends another one, apparently I'm dangerous because I read the book wrong
😂 come to life. More mad than anyone has ever been.
she tried to quote dunk on me for saying that her behavior was worse for academic communication than any random amateur being wrong motes and bleep-bleep beams
Yeah if I were her I would try not being a huge asshole
Wow
One of the worst aspects of academic culture is people thinking that believing themselves to be right gives them the right to be rude 😤
