It would be a bad faith argument if it was a seriously expressed one, rather than simply a below-the-line howl of pedantic rage. Personally, I’d...
Toxic filth is going a bit far. He’s right to dislike the name ME on accuracy and pedantry grounds, and it’s fair enough to call it a syndrome....

Which is why Tom is likely right to suspect there is a press release somewhere.
The problem is that the people in groups 2) and even in 3) who skim-read the article won’t be checking Garner’s position for logical fallacies, or...
