Honestly, I don’t see why you’re expecting me to seriously respond to any of that when it has absolutely nothing to do with the content of my article.

Why should I take the time to reply thoughtfully, when you clearly haven’t bothered to read what I wrote? What is there even to respond to except the same intellectually bankrupt pablum I’ve heard a million times by various pseudointellectual libertarian twits?
