::::Regarding adjectives like "weird", the gist of [[Tardis:No personal attacks]], as emphasised [[Thread:260549#72|in big bold letters]] by an admin a few points ago, is ''Argue the point, not th eperson''. Giving an opinion (albeit more or less extreme) about specific opinions and arguments you are making is not against Wiki policy so far as I or anyone is aware. Trying to discredit one's intellectual's opponent's views while forwarding what one believes to be true is kind of the whole idea of a "debate". --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 14:18, July 28, 2020 (UTC) | ::::Regarding adjectives like "weird", the gist of [[Tardis:No personal attacks]], as emphasised [[Thread:260549#72|in big bold letters]] by an admin a few points ago, is ''Argue the point, not th eperson''.

:::::If your actions being called cute makes you feel “uncomfortable” but then you can justify questioning someone’s sanity, don’t bother.

Re:Weird I note that [[Thread:278505#10]] explicitly affirms that me calling arguments poor or bad is not a violation of [[T:NPA]]. Obviously there's some daylight between that and calling them weird or absurd. But it's certainly my understanding of the rule that this is kosher, albeit as a new user, and that's what I've been operating under. (Hence why I've commented on people's ''positions'' or ''arguments'' and tried not to guess at their motives or suchlike.)
