    because they don’t let people talk shit about them

    The manner in which you engage in dialogue is important.

    Pretending to not understand another person’s viewpoint, and annoying them into compliance, is arguing in bad faith. Arguments in bad faith are malicious deception.

    Nobody wants to speak with sea lions because even if you explain in good faith, it won’t amount to anything except your own frustration. A summary of the heart of the sea lion: Arguing with me is pointless. “And now that you’re mad, you’ll know better than to talk shit about sea lions.”

    Don’t be a sea lion. You can protest opinions without being manipulative or rude about it.

      …do you actually think the sea lion understands why people hate sea lions?

      None of this is in the comic.
