    The worst thing to come out of social media discourse is ad hominem attacks (attacking a person) being perceived as attacking the argument itself. What an annoying take, no one is a god or angel. We have to do the work to find truth and justice.

      Wasn’t an ad hominem either, and that certainly wasn’t invented by social media.

      What are you doing, fam? Is this satire itself? Please stop co-opting debate club culture, I paid for my right to use these words.
