  • just because the words “what about…” are used, doesn’t make an argument a whataboutism.

    a whataboutism deflects from an argument or aims to derail an argument.

    what the previous user did was ask for further argumentation about a directly related topic; it’s a continuation, not a deflection.

    so it’s not fallacious, buta legitimate question:

    you’ve banned some propaganda channels (argument is closed at this point), will you now also ban other, similar channels (new, related argument)?

    since the previous argument has concluded, because yt has already enforced their views, wether right or wrong, the follow-up question is perfectly legitimate.


  • also in the books!

    the expanse is probably the most faithful reproduction of a book series ever.

    especially considering it’s like, what?, 5 books they made into the series?

    it’s almost a 1:1 translation into a different medium, which is hella impressive!

    they cut some stuff here and there (more and more as the series goes on, for obvious reasons) but seriously, damn near everything about the main story is there!

    there’s really good reasons for the fans demanding more of it after Netflix stopped production
