<<the beliefs that brees attributed to her.>>
He attributed to her repeated mentions of distaste (not cynicism, or a feeling of hopelessness, or contempt for certain self-styled representatives of these values, but DISTASTE) for truth. For justice. For human values. For principle.
There has been not a single post showing X as having a distaste for those noble nouns, only posts showing a certain bleakness of attitude, or a cynicism about claims made by humans about some of them; and there has, much more to the point, been not a single post, not one, in which what brees said X 'mentioned' about herself was shown.
Because X never mentioned anyplace a distaste for truth itself, did she?
Or justice itself, did she?
Or of living by principle itself, or even principle itself, or of the concept of human values itself. Did she ever mention a distaste on her part for those qualities or values?
The question is not whether you or brees can extrapolate from her posts a colorable argument that she is a person who must, you conclude, have a distaste for all things noble. The question is, did she describe herself in that way... did she say about herself what she was purported by brees to have said.
I mean mentioned.
She didn't. How strange it would have been if she had! |
