This is a good point!

I typically view a productive, high-quality conversation as one focused primarily on the topic at hand, with frequent reference to evidence to keep the discussion grounded in reality.

If you view other things as productive, such as repeatedly and at length ascribing to me motivations that I do not have and which are condemnable in character, then perhaps future conversations will not, in my view, have higher quality.

Incidentally, you keep charging me with unilaterally this and hegemonically that. But I'm actually content to follow any method that leads reliably to better understanding. The details are irrelevant; the goal is what's important. Feel free to unilaterally decide something else, as long as it's effective, and I'll do what I can to go along.
