When someone points to your guru having eugenics based views you belittle
them by comparing them to Ron Dean and when presented with actual evidence
quoted directly from the source you avoid actually deep diving in and
instead tap dance with irrelevancies like the practice of FGM. So much for
understanding those various views that might go against your own
confirmation bias. But go on and lecture Ron Dean on your virtues.
