Y He Just Cut Off Alex's Feet?

Alex, i think this is a really good tactic you can use when you're talking to hyper evasive people who are also full of shit. If there's something that's a standard rhetorical refuge that they tend to take, staking out your own claim in that space makes it so h t they're less comfortable retreating to it. Because if alex tries to employ that dodge, the response he can clearly expect isn't a distracting argument, but something like, we're in agreement that the media isn't great, but that's not relevant to the discussion we're having. Y he just cut off alex's feet. Oa, oo, meet my friend bus aller
