Venting: My cousin is a virulent progressive. He relies heavily on ad hominem attacks, floods the conversation with irrelevant points, shifts the goalposts, and resorts to emotional appeals and personal attacks. It gets exhausting.
Anyway, he messaged me wanting to debate, but only privately because publicly debating me could affect his business.
I’ll have the conversation with him privately, but I’ll admit it irritates me that he apparently doesn’t stand behind his political beliefs enough to express them publicly when doing so might have professional consequences.
