Would you mind elaborating on your take on that thread? What’s of most interest to me is what you think I meant, but I’m also interested in whether you’d say that Silas called Zack a liar.
I’m also interested in whether you’d say that Silas called Zack a liar.
Let’s go back a few steps. You said that in your “last few interactions” with me, I called you a liar. You later clarified that you were thinking of this discussion. But I didn’t deny calling Zack a liar in that discussion; I denied calling you a liar. So why are you suddenly acting like your original claim was about whether I called Zack a liar?
(In any case, it wasn’t just “Zack, you liar”. My remark was more like, “this is what you claimed, this is why it’s implausible, this is why your comments are hindering the discussion, please stop making this so difficult by coming up with ever-more-convoluted stories.”)
Are you and Zack the same person?
Considering that the earlier discussion was about whether you can arbitrarily redefine yourself as a different person, maybe Zack/Douglas are just taking the whole idea a little too seriously! :-P
(And in a show of further irony, that would be just the kind of subtle point that Zack and [?] Douglas, severely overestimating its obviousness, were defending in the thread!)
I apologize to third parties for the poor timing of my deletion of the above comment. It was really addressed to wedrifid and broadcasting it was petty, though not as petty as the excerpt looks.
That’s not calling you a liar. That’s criticizing the merit of your argument. There’s a difference.
The link provided by Douglas seems to suggest that Douglas’s accusation is false (as well as ineffective).

No.

Alright, well, good luck “getting the goods” on ol’ Silas! Just make sure not to get your claims mixed up again...
