On Vandalism vs. Related Contribution Theory vol. I (1922)

CHAPTER II: ON OBJECTS

"The object in question which is not related to the subject at hand ... is useless as the relation between it and the subject is not at possible.

[...]

The force of which the object moves in the discussion is variable depending on the activity of the situation. Firs, let us assume we have a fool who is accusing others of vandalism; or father dismissing them as 'faggotry' even though they are in fact related to the subject-matter inasmuch as the forum for discussion is concerned. This man then creates an article in this situation in which the topic of broccoli is brought up even though the grand topic concerns a game. This would indeed be far more worthy of 'faggotry' than the original proposition set forth by him.[1]"
