[1] Forgive me for when I saw what is actually "Shetterly" I'm reminded of the name "Satterly," which was the name of a friend I lost during my second deployment in Afghanistan. Sure you might not have known I'm a war veteran but your smug responses shouldn't exist regardless had you known or not.

Stop the smug response disposition unless you rather upkeep a smug personality and just wig the white privilege, just like cops, and never atone for stank behavior and repair.

One guy said "facts are the least important part of communication."

^I would think that if he were to expand on that, empathy, respect and reason are the things that you seriously lack. Go ahead and continue your laughter at a veteran who was reminded of military friend was killed in a freaking warzone.

[2] Statistics matter, but not in a void. The context of which I speak has NOTHING to do with statistics and more to do with your context and framing. For example, if I were to shout out statistics about lima beans, in the context of your assumption on why I was reminded of a friend's name seeing yours, it would be categorically IRRELEVANT, regardless of how accurate my lima beans statistics were.

There's written work on intellectual standards that covers this. Research "intellectual standards" by Dr. Linda Elder and Dr. Richard Paul. You can also find this in a book written by David T. Moore, called "Critical Thinking and Intelligence Analysis". Due to your intellectual dishonesty and exercised smugness, I highly doubt you ever came across any of the concepts concerning intellectual standards. Your intellectual standards (in your work) are too low. Too many people pointed to your framing, context, passive-aggressiveness to activists and/or movements, and agenda, and you do not care. If you had higher intellectual standards, you wouldn't to hide behind your "statistics" when the context of one's complaint has nothing to do with that part.

Anyway, I hope you actually taker note on a few things written by the critical thinking authors I named, but, for some reason I think you're just gonna ignore reason as how you have been doing and attempt to continue being a random smug bait-writer guy.
