Thank you for expanding on your point! I understand what you meant a lot better now. If you had any resources that expand on your views, I'd be happy to read them.

Interesting. Thanks for taking the time to respond. Something for me to think about, seriously. Seeing the argument sketched out like this is illuminating as to its extent, I appreciate it.

It's interesting to see how you interpret my words. Thanks for the discussion.

Thanks for the response. I appreciate you taking time to clarify your position.

I don't think my position is as clearly articulated in my first comment as it might be, but I doubt you or others have much interest in it so I'll drop the conversation here.

This, I think, is your argument. It's helped me to see where you're coming from and - I don't disagree. This is a good point. Thanks for helping me see things differently!

This is a great rebuttal, and gestures towards what I was getting at. Thanks.

The last paragraph is what I'm trying to advance in discussions here. You put it much better though.

I want to thank you for writing this. I think this helps me understand your position (and the position of people with similar positions) a lot, and I appreciate your answering my question.

I'm sorry that your comment has been downvoted more than upvoted, when you were answering a question that I asked.

While I don't really agree with the conclusions, I do think this very much helped clear up your point of view, and also what you mean by those terms, and I thank you for it (and also upvoted you).

thanks

Thanks for explaining. I appreciate the reply and respect your position, though I still don’t quite agree.

noobermin | karma 14622 | avg karma 3.06 · | 2018-07-15 19:46:53+00:00

I feel like you're making a very interesting point but it seems a bit broad and abstract for me to justify in my head. Could you clarify what you mean?

onedev | karma 2225 | avg karma 3.24 · | 2013-12-16 04:54:56+00:00

Thank you for posting a well thought out response. Even if I may not agree with everything you said, it was a fantastic read that got me thinking about a lot of different issues.

HFguy | karma 365 | avg karma 2.87 · | 2022-04-26 11:04:25

Can you lay out more how you are thinking about this? I don't see it that way, but would appreciate another view point.

smolder | karma 4435 | avg karma 2.13 · | 2021-01-17 19:01:59

Thanks for your replies! I think you helped clarify your position. It's food for thought.

Sapere_Aude | karma -9 | avg karma -0.41 · | 2021-10-28 17:41:17

Please lead me to some examples for your claims, if you have them, so I can make up my mind and re-evaluate my stance, if you're correct. I'd appreciate it.

steveklabnik | karma 91260 | avg karma 5.08 · | 2016-10-11 18:31:28+00:00

Thanks for elaborating. I think we fundamentally disagree, but I understand your perspective a lot better now.

skrebbel | karma 32746 | avg karma 5.58 · | 2022-09-30 03:54:11

Thanks for writing this comment. I mostly disagree with it (although I struggle to formulate my objections), but you summarized this change in attitude very well and helped me understand it. Even if I disagree on points, your argument makes a lot of sense to me.

akanet | karma 2516 | avg karma 5.92 · | 2017-03-23 00:01:49+00:00

While your criticisms about what the author's explanation lacks or does not consider are appreciated, I think this is a wonderful opportunity for you to put forth your own understanding! I know very little about the topic and thus found the article interesting. I would happily learn more.

the_other | karma 2119 | avg karma 2.62 · | 2022-09-22 06:08:41

I like how you've laid this argument out. Really useful perspective. Copied for further thought. Thanks.

tovej | karma 426 | avg karma 1.91 · | 2021-06-11 10:41:30

It's great that you're engaging in the discussion. You didn't really respond to my questions though. If you could, it would ground your argument, and we could actually talk about something concrete.

Also, if you have some sources for your claims, I would appreciate it if you at least mentioned them. At the moment you seem to be arguing from emotion.

I have tried to answer to your last paragraph in 2 or 3 different ways but it's such a complex argument I don't think I'm smart enough to express simply and eloquently in a forum comment.

But I very much appreciate the food for thought and input you've given me.
