    You already crowned me king of the hill when you declared me the intellectual authority.

    If you want to walk that back because you don’t like it, feel free, but you’ll do nothing more than make yourself look silly and inconsistent - not correct.

    I’m not one for monarchs, but it’s good to be the king.

      Sure did, now use your authority to hold that position.

      It’s clearly an example you dolt.

      King stupid is still king I suppose.

        No need for me to reestablish what you’ve already conceded.

        Are you sure you’re OK after all that violence I inflicted on you?

          So you’re not the intellectual authority because I say you’re wrong and I am in fact the authority. Prove me wrong and moreover order me to do legit any fucking thing.

            Walking back your own statements because you don’t like the outcome does nothing to hurt my intellectual authority, while it torpedoes your own.

            My advice - if you want to be seen as the intellectual authority, make a better case for it. Violence won’t work, and your current line of argumentation is proving my point.

              Farming to prove yourself the intellectual authority is enough evidence that you are in fact not the intellectual authority. It’s that perceived power vs actual power issue again.

              Your advice as what? Certainly not the intellectual authority.

                As the established intellectual authority here, who was handed this status without the need for violence, there’s nothing for me to add. You proved me right.

                So long, intellectual peasant.

                  Hah thank you for proving my point.

                  I made you the intellectual authority thus I have the actual power and you have presumed power.

                  Do betterer

                    Are we still talking about the authority was granted to me without force (proving you wrong), and retained in a similar fashion (proving you wrong again) as you’ve tossed away any credibility or claim to the mantle with self-contradiction (rendering your claim to intellectual authority laughable).

                    Keep at it, peasant - You’ve done nothing but prove me right so far. If the use of actual force to kill me wouldn’t make your self-contradiction any more correct or your claim to the mantle any more valid, brute-force insistence certainly won’t - it only continues to strengthen my claim.
