Transgenderism as a principle subject is going to be an orthodox thing, my view is that when you discuss the principle you remove people involved. Otherwise emotions and anecdotal evidence plays in.

2018-12-29 11:40:39 UTC  

Apparently narcissism implies that I can't have unique opinions.

2018-12-29 11:40:58 UTC  

y do u think ur opinion is unique?

2018-12-29 11:42:06 UTC  

are all your opinions unique?

2018-12-29 11:43:00 UTC  

Because I being one of a kind as each human being is unique, "generated" my own opinion based on empyrical and amecdotal evidence presented by many communities which forced me to dwell on. Obviously with 7 billion people on earth someones bound to generate a similar thought to me, but I expressed it the way I see it.

2018-12-29 11:43:50 UTC  

That's the weakest definition of unique I've ever heard, so you have at least one unique opinion

2018-12-29 11:43:55 UTC  

One thing I tend to see people do is not argue the actual subject and jump around by talking semantics in wordplay.

2018-12-29 11:44:27 UTC  

as a programmer i can honestly say,

even NPC's are unique, cuz having overlapping object ID's messes with the program

2018-12-29 11:44:30 UTC  

I can go into Youtube comments and find 500 instances of the "transgenderism is a mental illness" response

2018-12-29 11:44:39 UTC  

You can

2018-12-29 11:44:44 UTC  

But its not mine

2018-12-29 11:44:56 UTC  

but it being yours somehow change the uniqueness?

2018-12-29 11:45:03 UTC  

Still doesnt argue my opinion

2018-12-29 11:45:05 UTC  

transgenderism is a mix of mental illness, trolls who want people to get upset, and people wanting attention

2018-12-29 11:45:06 UTC  

Yes, but the opinion is the same as yours. Identical. Completely interchangeable. So your opinion isn't unique.

2018-12-29 11:45:08 UTC  

narcissism *cough*...

2018-12-29 11:45:21 UTC  

See my point

2018-12-29 11:45:24 UTC  

Wordplay

2018-12-29 11:45:27 UTC  

At its best

2018-12-29 11:45:46 UTC  

The word "unique" has a meaning. Pointing that out isn't wordplay

2018-12-29 11:45:49 UTC  

fucking lmao

2018-12-29 11:45:56 UTC  

Holdup

2018-12-29 11:46:04 UTC  

Pointing that out isnt wordplay

2018-12-29 11:46:10 UTC  

How so?

2018-12-29 11:46:43 UTC  

You mean my use of the word isnt as fine print as the dictionary and could be supplemented by another word?

2018-12-29 11:46:57 UTC  

You're using the adjective "unique" to describe something that is not unique in the common usage of the word. So you're using the wrong word.

2018-12-29 11:47:08 UTC  

That's not wordplay, that's you using the wrong friggin word

2018-12-29 11:47:20 UTC  

No its not

2018-12-29 11:47:26 UTC  

Its wordplay

2018-12-29 11:47:33 UTC  

I used a word

2018-12-29 11:47:41 UTC  

You understood the context

2018-12-29 11:47:43 UTC  

Yet

2018-12-29 11:47:52 UTC  

You questioned the word itself

2018-12-29 11:48:06 UTC  

i'm not questioning the word, I am questioning if you are a narcissist.

2018-12-29 11:48:11 UTC  

Generating a discussion outside of the actual discussion

2018-12-29 11:48:20 UTC  

I don't question the word, I question what you're using the word to describe, namely your opinion and how special/mundane it is

2018-12-29 11:48:22 UTC  

because if the opinion isn't unique, yet you find it unique because it's yours....

2018-12-29 11:48:40 UTC  

wordplay
/ˈwəːdpleɪ/
noun
the witty exploitation of the meanings and ambiguities of words, especially in puns.

🤔

2018-12-29 11:49:32 UTC  

Or the exploitation of the word in discussion or debate to play a game where you argue the legitimacy of the word usage.

2018-12-29 11:49:36 UTC  

How ambiguous the word "unique"? Is it ambiguous enough that you could pass off something completely mundane as unique? Can a word be synonymous with its antonym?
