    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.

          You deferred to me as your source of authority thus I can only logical be a higher authority. Exercise your authority, order me to admit I’m wrong. Logic boss use some.

            You immediately proved yourself wrong when you handed me that authority without force, and you’ve failed to take it back through force or rhetoric - you’ve only cemented my position further.

            Unless you’ve got a new point to make, we’re done here - I’ve got king shit to do.

              I cannot hand you authority, it is by definition taken out surmounted. Notably I cannot hand you something I am not entitled to give from a position of authority.

              You presume yourself King, but that was proclaimed by God.

                When I asked for a new line of argumentation, I didn’t mean for you to stack pseudo-religious babble on top of the self-contradiction. That isn’t the path to intellectual authority any more than force is.

                Meanwhile…

                Grug beat Einstein with stick, Grug intellectual authority on speshul regabibity now.

                Hitler genocided the Jews. Thanks to that exercise of extreme force, Hitler is the moral authority on genocide, and all his actions were A-OK.

                So dumb.

                  Just use that intellectual authority to realize it’s a metaphor. You lost, stop crying.

                  You’re literally referring to me to attempt to assert your authority. Use that heavy thing above your shoulders, if I gave you authority clearly I have higher authority to do so.

                  The rest is you my crying, try harder.

                    Your argument is defending Hitler as a moral authority and Grug as the intellectual authority on special relativity over Einstein.

                    You’re not any old peasant - you’re the village idiot.
