This makes no sense as a reply to anything written on this entire page.
... seriously? Well, OK.
I was jokingly restating my justification; since, while I agree that "argumentum ad thermitium" (as you put it) is an excellent response to blackmailers, it's worth having a strategy for dealing with blackmailer reasoning beyond that - for dealing with all the situations you will actually encounter such reasoning, those involving humans.
I guess it wasn't very funny even before I killed it so thoroughly.
Anyway, this subthread has now become entirely devoted to discussing our misreadings of each other. Tapping out.
