Is there something stronger than an upvote that one can give, like a super-upvote?
The appreciation is appreciated. :-)
I'm actually vaguely unsatisfied with this. There's a stronger statement about this I feel like I could make, but I can't translate the strong version of this into words; the discussion so far has been an abstract cloud in my brain that isn't condensing properly into a properly pithy form (which is part of why I was long-winded there). It's where all of this ties back into my opening post - about how, historically, people have been utter rubbish at judging the relative merits of groups, and how a spectrum of beliefs about race is a stronger "group" identifier than skin color. But it's not condensing properly.
Have you considered taking this as a hint that your beliefs about the subject are incoherent.
No. I don't think in words, and the translation from the thing-I-think-in into words is frequently very lossy.
