Look, you keep saying I’m telling you what you think, but that’s just a way of dodging the actual argument. In any serious conversation, we have to interpret each other’s words. That’s how reasoning works. When I restate your point, I’m not claiming psychic powers; I’m engaging with what you said. If I get something wrong, point to the sentence and explain where. But saying “you have no idea what I think” shuts down discussion instead of clarifying it.

And about the example, you keep missing what it was doing. I wasn’t saying the night sky and bestiality are the same thing. Obviously not. The example illustrates how beauty is subjective. Humans find pigs ugly, pigs find pigs beautiful. That’s not crude, it’s biology. The point is that beauty depends entirely on the observer. That’s the entire argument. You can swap out pigs for anything else and it still holds. You got hung up on the imagery instead of seeing the reasoning behind it.

You also seem to think I’m being unhinged because I’m willing to follow an argument wherever it leads, even if it’s uncomfortable. But that’s the whole purpose of rational discussion, to question assumptions rather than hide behind emotional reactions. If your position can’t survive a provocative example, that’s not my problem.

You accuse me of making assumptions, but that’s what all reasoning is. We start with assumptions and test them. If you think mine are wrong, show why. Don’t just say “stop assuming things.” That’s not logic, that’s avoidance.

And about that opening line, you keep acting like it somehow undermines everything else I said, but that’s not how rational discussion works. I took it out because it added heat, not because it invalidated the argument. You can’t take one emotional sentence and use it to dismiss paragraphs of reasoning that followed. That’s not proportional, and it’s not logical. If my logic is wrong, show me where it’s wrong. But if all you can point to is tone, that’s just a way of dodging the argument. The content stands or falls on its reasoning, not on how politely it began or how it continues.

You talk about good faith, but good faith means addressing the argument, not the emotional impression it gave you. I laid out a clear thesis: beauty is observer dependent. It’s not intrinsic, not sacred, and certainly not a unique human experience. That doesn’t make it meaningless; it makes it relative. If you disagree, then tell me why you think beauty is intrinsic or what makes human perception special. But just calling the argument crazy and walking away doesn’t make your point stronger, it just makes it look like you don’t have one.
