    It isn't

    You are doing a bad homage to the argument sketch.

    Fluid Dynamics is an offshoot of Classical Mechanics. Fluid Dynamics is not classical mechanics.

    When I say Marxism is an offshoot of Hegel, and you respond "Marxism is not Hegelianism", you, are in my mind, addressing a different question, you're addressing a question of subsets (Marxism is a type of Hegelianism, which is not what I am saying), while I'm talking about a question of relations (Marxism is related to Hegelianism in a particular way). You could of course inquire into what I mean by "related in a particular way", but you insisting that Marxism is not a type of Hegelianism has nothing to do with that in my view, so you are not addressing my original claim as I intended it.

    I could be wrong, and that Marxism is not related to Hegelianism in the particular way I had in mind, but you haven't said anything about that except not-uh.

      You keep arguing with me even though I told you to stop pestering me.

      I already said that calling Marxism a Hegelian off-shoot or whatever is reductive.

      Good day.

        Yes, but you did not, as you say "explain yourself" for this. In what way is it reductive? Is that bad thing in this case?

        I'm happy to disengage if you'd like to invoke the disengagement rule, but you don't get to recapitulate your position as correct and then invoke the rule in the same post.

          If you're asking why reductiveness is ever a bad thing, then you're being disingenuous, I feel.

          You've been harassing me over and over again even when I told you to stop.

          Good day.
