Well possibly not comprehension, in my defence I would say I was referencing the world as it is not as we might wish it to be. I know that is balked at but it is a useful exercise sometimes as it is the place we live. This is not the right platform for such back-and-forthing though as any alternative points of view are heavily downvoted in the name of free speech by people who smell slightly of boats.

    Downvotes don't impact your ability to explain the reasoning behind your questionable claim. Don't be a coward.

    They are disheartening though and it is not cowardly to avoid conversation, we do it all the time.

    Just to be clear, I did not downvote you, because you made your point intentionally vague, and even though I believe it to be the typical incel-bullshit it sounds like, I asked you to clarify on the off chance that I'm wrong.

    So please explain. You say you reference the 'world as it is' and in this hypothetical world, women have a superpower, right? Which superpower were you talking about, and how would AI take it away?

    You reference incels in the way some men reference women.

    Being a misogynist is a choice. Being a woman isn't.

    But keep pretending it's the same thing, just as an incel would.

    Edit: and please don't come back with the "being involuntarily celibate is not a choice," because we both (and everyone else besides) know very well that self-proclaimed incels are something else entirely.

    And if you would please answer the question I asked twice already: Which superpower were you talking about and how would AI take it away?

    I did not know it was acceptable to be prejudiced against a group if inclusion within that group was voluntary. So by your logic you condone prejudice against the Black Panther Party and Greenpeace.

    Still not answering my question, are you? I'm not playing this game. You keep derailing to avoid answering. It's cowardly. And very, very obvious. I prefer to spend my time on other things.

    Have a nice day, I guess.

    I said very early on that I would not argue that query on this platform and just imagined saying it once was sufficient and that repetition would be pointless, an opinion about repetition you clearly do not share. I find it interesting that you did not answer my point about your support of prejudice against the Black Panthers in the same message that you make the complaint of my not answering your point, which as I noted I had closed a few messages back.
