What's a clever way of asking if someone online is a dude or a dudette, without actually asking? I'm thinking of a poll where it would be relevant, but feel like directly asking would be annoying. The reason for the question is because different psychologies would tend produce different results. This is probably always the case, so having a stock question would be convenient. Ideas?

Depends on the person practicing it. I do think some people who are in the profession of therapy are themselves psychopaths. But there are also people who just want to have a clearer picture of the world and recognize that the primary factor in our experience of the world is the unconscious. Psychology is probably the most important thing anyone can know, especially in fields like economics, education, architecture, and policy making.

Manipulation has become such a part of debating and arguing these days that one could be forgiven for doing so when they have nothing but good intentions. We live in a world of lies and disinformation. I have been following and chatting with Comte enough to give him the benefit of the doubt. And so I just point out what I believe to be a dangerous act. There’s no accusations of ill intent in my meaning.
