Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

But Object is making assumptions based on what he has seen of me without really knowing a whole lot and bringing the personal into a theoretical argument, which is reductive.

I believe this is usually referred to as "pointless ad hominem"..

I'm a slow learner, but one thing I'm pretty sure of at this relatively late stage in my life is that when you make assumptions about people, their values, their morals, their motivations, you almost always get it badly wrong. When you then speculate on how someone would behave in certain circumstances, hypothetically, based on these flawed assumptuions, you will be spectacularly wide of the mark. Add a touch of judgementalism to the mix and the result is hilarious.....
