      So why does it always seem to be that anyone who is making “reactionary statements that aren’t rooted in material analysis” is basically just someone who doesn’t agree with your conclusions? Are you the only one who is right?

              So now you’re passive aggressively saying that none of my arguments are constructive? That I’m just trolling?

                  Yes, you have, and I thank you for those posts.

                  What I do not appreciate, is the posts where you aren’t doing that.

                  That is my point. You have your good posts, that I enjoy reading, and then there are posts that you make that I do not enjoy reading, because you are attacking someone passive aggressively and not really putting forth an argument. Calling someone reactionary, or a troll, just because they don’t agree with you is an example of this.

                    Nobody is perfect, but I try to engage constructively when I think people are making a genuine effort to have a meaningful discussion. What I consider to be a reactionary position is when people argue that this technology has no value in face of all evidence to the contrary. And it’s very clear that this position stems from people having personal distaste for it.
