EPTBut you didn’t actually “show” anything except that you’re committed to an absolutist framing as well as wording (evil) that I’ve rejected from the start and never used. When I listed positive Palestinian traits, that wasn’t me “admitting” anything - it was me answering in good faith from my framework, where cultures are judged on a spectrum of traits rather than flipped wholesale into “evil” or “not evil.”
The way you then dismissed those positives as irrelevant only proves my point: your argument only works by smuggling in the assumption that any evil trait cancels out all good ones. That’s the fallacy of composition I’ve been calling out from the start.
I believe cultures have multiple traits, some humane, some inhumane, and we evaluate them comparatively. That’s different from your absolutist approach - and that’s where our disagreement actually lies and where you try to set a trap.
Plus, it seems like it is actually you who doesn't think too highly of Palestinian culture yourself, the way you speak about it in these past posts. Who would've guessed, huh?
