Again, I would recommend that others go and look first hand at the comment section themselves rather than through second hand opinion.

Again, I can perceive, think about and act in the world on my own.

My words do have an impact on the world. Leave it to me to decide what to do with my body, my mind, my tongue. You do what you would like, as you did in writing your article, which again is mainly about attacking character rather than the actual data. (There is little of that).

I certainly do not consider you to be my friend. Friendship is generally a two way street and cannot just be claimed by one party for it to exist. In fact I would be very wary of anyone claiming to be acting in my best interest who does not know me, and does not respect my ability to think for myself or my agency to act in the world as I see fit. The idea that you would be acting in my self interest is a means of manipulation. You literally only encountered me through a YT channel, from your comments don’t seem to actually know my view on the topic, and have no reason to dialogue with me other than to quiet your own emotional reaction to the topic, through attempting to quiet my voice. That is for your own self interest.

The point of my responses is to suggest that others watch my videos and decide for themselves.

Best,

Desi-Rae
