33. Understanding Her Point Enables Us To Respond Better
Instead of arguing something which you are wrong about, we could certainly serve ourselves, and Mr. Gore, better by having a sound comeback, instead of arguing the point of whether he himself won the award.

That's all I'm saying here. When you argue about something which you're factually wrong about, it diminishes your strength. If you want to argue about how vital Mr. Gore was to the film, or how it would not have been possible without him, that's fine.

But stating that the award belongs to Mr. Gore is not correct, and saying it is opens us up to the r/w argument, which enables them to look smart, and us to look like a bunch of cheerleaders.

I'm wasting my time here. I'm just going to let y'all claim victory and say whatever you want.
