But you do have a dog in this debate. We all do. Anything that impacts vaccines impacts public health which impacts all of us. As to "un-personing TNG", I brought up French literature. In particular, I brought up French literature widely recognized as a part of the Theater of the Absurd and how it related to American "theater of the absurd", mainly the classic Invasion of the Body Snatchers. To extend that to "unpersoning" someone requires the dismissal of metaphor as a rhetorical device, a particularly hypocritical choice when your only contributions on this forum for the past several years have been of the "how many angels on the head of a pin" variety. TNG's statement was that "he didn't find any fault" in RFK's statement. My argument is that he is choosing not to. It's disingenuous of you to argue that (1) this is an ad-hominem attack when it is wholly dedicated to exploring that choice (2) I am somehow "unpersoning" someone when the entire argument is about choice, something we have long held to be the providence of sentience. I am willing to continue this discussion with you if you can do so in good faith. If you instead choose to snark your way through further abortive demonstrations of your moral and intellectual superiority I'm not sure there would be any point.
