And?

The end of May 2020. It’s when they burned down that famous church and defaced multiple monuments as they attacked the Whitehouse. The president had t...

The facts remain. Yes, rioters died. I said they didn’t kill anyone. The riot I was speaking about in particular was the assault on the whitehouse, an...

I’m just passing the time. Does dissent from The Narrative frighten you? Because I haven’t seen try to impugn anyone else’s motives.

The conscious thing is that which we observe when it comes to consciousness. The phenomena we call consciousness is exactly identical, in fact one-and...

The thing or things we ascribe properties to can be observed. To observe the property “boiling point”, for example, we have to observe something boil....

I get it but properties are too abstract. They emerge only from thinking and discourse and various other analysis. What matters in the case of conscio...

Well said. The problem with emergentism is that nothing—and certainly no thing—can be shown to emerge. Nothing of any sort “appears” or “arises”, espe...

Couldn’t get him for what he did do, so they try to get him for what he didn’t do.

Jan 6th was the regime’s Reichstag fire. Bought and sold was the idea that we witnessed an insurrection, an attack, as if by a military force on Janua...

That’s not up to me, or the courts. That’s up to Congress, as only they have the power to enforce the provisions of the article. But given that the 14...

His fitness for president has already been proven. That lie was refuted every day he was in office. No, not a single person was hurt because of “Trump...

In the area cleared for the protest.

You’ve found me another reason why law in general and the legal profession in particular are stupid. Another reason why you should refrain from appeal...

Refusing to believe something isn’t a principle of any crime I’ve ever heard of.
January 05, 2024 at 18:55
Why should I care who told him what? You tell me I’m wrong all the time, and I still don’t believe what you think I ought to.
January 05, 2024 at 18:36
But that’s what he said in the preceding sentences to the one you quoted. And yes, he wanted Congress to makes a stink about certification just as the...
January 05, 2024 at 18:27
It’s clear from his speech what he was advocating his supporters to do and what the actions of Congress he wanted them to cheer on. It’s all in there.
January 05, 2024 at 18:24
We can’t certify a fraudulent election. Do you think this is the advocacy of a crime?
January 05, 2024 at 18:14
For the last time, he never advocated anything of the sort. It’s why you won’t quote him advocating anything. What you can quote him advocating is peo...
January 05, 2024 at 17:48
It’s not true that he advocated any crime, whether they are the ones you mentioned or insurrection. It’s why you won’t quote any advocacy of any crime...
January 05, 2024 at 17:30
That’s just not true. What he advocated was to march to the capital and cheer on the senators and congressmen.
January 05, 2024 at 17:22
And which illegal activity did he advocate?
January 05, 2024 at 17:03
All you need to do to see if the speech is considered incitement is to apply the so-called “Brandenburg Test”. Is he advocating the use of lawless act...
January 05, 2024 at 16:10
A reasonable person could go to a transcript of his speech, pick out one of the twenty-odd times he uses the word “fight”, and show how he is being li...
January 05, 2024 at 14:56
It’s possible, sure, but entirely missing in this case. Not only does it not make sense to presume someone is guilty for a crime for which he has not ...
January 04, 2024 at 17:03
You would run away? Jesus. What a good citizen. No, given the proof the presumption of guilt is warranted. What you wouldn’t do, I hope, is presume so...

The “fight like hell” canard is stupid because each time he uses the word in that speech he does so metaphorically. For some reason they take this one...

I said he lied about having no knowledge of his son’s business dealings.
January 04, 2024 at 15:17
I identified a blizzard of lies. You just didn’t want to hear it.
January 04, 2024 at 15:07
Yes I did.
January 04, 2024 at 14:56
You thought that by “human rights” I meant “the ability to run for president”. Silly.
January 04, 2024 at 14:53
Then you heard him tell rally goers to peacefully and patriotically make their voices heard, something that was not cited in the Colorado decision as ...
January 04, 2024 at 14:51
I wonder where they learned that? The whole year previously there were riots everywhere, resulting in numerous deaths and billions in dollars in damag...
January 04, 2024 at 14:45
How does one know someone is guilty of a crime if he hasn’t been proven guilty, in your world? Did you see him do it? Is it a gut thing? Is it because...
January 04, 2024 at 14:35
But he hasn’t even been charged for insurrection, let alone convicted. You’re saying he’s guilty of a crime he hasn’t been charged with or proven guil...

It involves the evidence of offered by physics, surely, but also some other sciences as well. Given its relation to philosophy of mind, it’s also abou...
January 04, 2024 at 00:08
That’s a weird and messy way to understand it, in my opinion. Much of physics is theoretical and abstract. Not even physicists believe they’re true. T...

By punished I mean disqualified from the ballot. Do you think someone should be disqualified from the ballot for a crime he has not been proven to com...
January 03, 2024 at 23:54
But due process, right to a fair trial, and free speech are. And justice demands that one ought not be punished for something he didn’t do.
January 03, 2024 at 22:55
Sorry for the confusion but a Supreme Court interprets the constitution and law. I made the moral case that it is wrong disqualify Trump, as is obviou...
January 03, 2024 at 21:52
The decision was wrong. Their evaluation is wrong. He was both acquitted of the charge in the impeachment process and was never charged, nor convicted...
January 03, 2024 at 19:49
So you think that both that both the party convicted and the party acquitted are liable?
January 03, 2024 at 19:41
I was trying to say he wasn’t liable for the same charges in the impeachment because he wasn’t convicted. The constitution explicitly said “ the Party...
January 03, 2024 at 19:30
I cannot follow. That someone has the right to do something does not entail that she is right to do it. It is immoral and unjust to punish someone for...
January 03, 2024 at 19:19
He was impeached twice, and acquitted twice. But never mind.
