If he used a fallacy on purpose or not idk

But he did say that was his goal

The fact that you can think about it like that is good. To conceptualize it. Yeah it sucks that it has to be a "battle". That is totally feeding his ego right there, has nothing to do with learning or debating.

Well it’s whatever now, plus a lot of it was me being trash at debate

And I didn’t fully read into all of the topics we went over

Hey man, debate is totally about practice and learning/knowing the topics.

But he would just throw insults at me and I personally am not good with debating like that

Oh yeah, naw if he insults you that is a red flag.

That is actually the most common logical fallacy. Its called "Ad Hominem", an attack of the person. He attacked you and didn't attack your argument.

This was a while ago so I can’t remember the details

Well yeah he called me Dave Rubin

Which is just saying I don’t stand for anything

I was a wishy washy centrist etc

Then a reactionary

Actually I went ahead and looked up what bro reactionaries believe because of this

Neo reactionaries*

And it’s basically the opposite side of intersectional feminism. They like capitalism, nationalism and the “patriarchy” (church)

But obviously their terms are different and don’t match completely

GG @Deleted User, you just advanced to level 2!

Nothing wrong with a centrist. Centrist can mean you are open to anything. You don't need to make a decision until you know what you are deciding on.

Reactionary I think is extreme left. The furthest left. Radical left winger.

You must have said something really crazy to go from centrist to radical left in a few sentences haha.

I don’t know if I’m on board with that

Oh it was some retarded shit about dog whistles

Like memes are infecting the youth

Turning the kids alt right with Pepe

Stupid things like that

But no the reactionaries definitely call themselves right wing

Though right wing and left wing is a little vague I think I can call them right

They believe Christianity is absolutely needed in society, a lot of ethno nationalist but civic nationalist too

Pro capitalist

It’s a weird balance of things

They put society’s classes into categories

Like I’ve seen them agree with the marixist definition of the capitalist

By that I mean

You can’t be a capitalist unless you own the means of production or transfer wealth

But when I say agree, it’s not like they recognized that they did

But they used the same set of categories

Say what?

Idk if I make any sense

No it doesnt
