Just get salty, throw some generic as fuck "-ism" buzzwords as silencers, take the response as hyperbole. That's how you know you're better than them
Obviously too difficult to construct a valid point these days.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

It was some time ago (a year, maybe more), the missus and I were in Auckland on business and we ate One Tree Grill, having made reservations about a month before (yes, it's that kind of place). A youngish family was seated a few tables away and their little girl - 5 or 6, I think - kept up a serious discussion for about an hour as to why bunnies are better pets than dogs. She charmed everyone within earshot (I don't remember clearly, but I think her main point was that 'Hopping is funner than walking, so bunnies are best'). Even though she never shut up, I found her a complete delight.
So much for being 'anti-kid', then.

Hopping is indeed funnier than walking. The girl is completely correct.

Agreed - that was part of her charm. She made her arguments skillfully, forcefully, without rancor and with an almost unbearable amount of cuteness.
Think I'm going to hop off for a bit...
