Discourse is when there’s a meltdown, a
bad take being
rted, a good take being debated for no goddamned reason, a new trend or
template that has caught everyone

You know, it's harder to come up with these than you'd think. And I'm tired. So,
no definition for you. And I don't owe
you anything. You're actively participating in my
comeuppance. Pieces of shit. You're a bunch of fucking assholes. You know that right? I was right about all of you.
Example:
Hym "Sooo... The public
discourse being democratized if bad (because why should a
golden god have to acknowledge a peasant? He should be doing what everyone else is doing. And everyone else should be doing what I tell them. Then everything would be better for everyone.) but identity being democratized is good? That's how people end up getting
lobotomized or thrown in an oven. .."

The act of slapping two penises together. Learned people (that's "learNED" pronounced with two
syllables,
boyee) often use the word "discourse" because they
do not want to offend anyone by actually saying "slapping two penises together."
Example:
Eagleton is invoking an
ethical obligation on the part of the intellectual to speak for, but also to, those whose consciousness is lagging behind whatever
Hegelian discourse of utopian progress is being espoused.
I had a discourse with your mom last night.

reasoned discourse

Term for when
gun control advocates regularly
censor comments on their message boards or blogs. Usually when their arguments and claims are easily refuted.
Term comes from the last days of the old Brady Campaign blog where they ran a series called, of course 'Reasoned Discourse' where they
highlighted alleged violent or disgusting comments they had received. This was shortly before they blocked all comments and later deleted them.
Example:
I pointed out that murder was already illegal and that making it moreso with a special
gun murder statute was a bit silly.
Reasoned discourse broke out, and my comment vanished from the blog.
