Lol, I don't cause you to argue in bad faith (with entire comments full of fallacies), that's you who does so of your own "brainpower."

You've not once made a valid counterargument or even provided evidence. What evidence? The only content I've seen is your ableism and ad hominems. Can you actually form an independent, good faith argument backed with valid evidence? I haven't seen evidence of THAT being able to happen yet.

Again, you seem to think Lemmy mods are in charge of who is and isnt a Nazi, that's so strange lol. But I dont usually report to mods, I'm an adult who can handle an argument (are you?). I also am an adult who can read what people write and form opinions about them, without needing another adult to intervene or tell me how to think. Maybe that's your issue? No mod or big friend to tell you how to argue in good faith here?

Okay you ARE genuinely very dumb. Good luck with that.

Normally I would just mock you by pointing out that liberals stay in the tweets while leftists get out on the streets, but you’re obviously suffering from mental illness

Here's an ad hominem and ableism. Your refusal to debate the argument here is a fallacy and bad faith.

and I don’t think it’s very nice to make fun of people who are clearly having a mental breakdown, judging by your totally normal reaction.

2nd instance of ad hom and ableism in this comment alone.

As for BRICS,

Thanks for reminding me you failed to answer any questions and lost this debate completely.

Also, hey @[email protected], turns out it’s uh checks notes BRICS that’s censoring Wikipedia to convince you not to drink your own pee.

Strawman, that was never said. I also have a longform comment to that user already explaining why the science of the pee drinking stuff is bogus, so somehow you did a double strawman.

Yup, bunch of totally normal people in these comments.

3rd instance of ad hom and ableism

Now for this comment.

you’re very clearly dedicated to whatever this wonderful and deep narrative is that you’ve crafted

That's literally just having integrity and debating a position. You can't argue because you don't know how to argue this topic in good faith and apparently too childish to admit it.

and also, argonians have stinky fish breath

This is an ad hom, it is being used in an argument to strengthen your side, and further, you are basing the entirety of your refusal to discuss in good faith on ad homs in the previous comment.

you’re wrong, because your arguments suck

This is also a fallacy and bad faith argument, it would be dismissed. Circular reasoning.

An ad hominem is an attempt to refute an argument by using a personal attack

That's what you did. Literally. Don't gaslight. I quoted it so you can see. You then changed the exucse to not argue in good faith in this most recent comment to lack the ableism, which is why it looks hilarious, like you're upset I'm able to argue and think.

Oh, and if you’re going to call someone a nazi, at least make it someone the average person would believe is a nazi

You are one or you support them which makes you one.

If I was anything of the sort, I personally know three admins of my instance who would not hesitate to ban me in an instant, and one or two of them could probably dox me if they wanted to.

Really bad application of appeal to authority - fallacy. Lemmy mods dont determine who is a Nazi lol

Intolerance is only an issue when it is equated with violence. There's no real issue or paradox of intolerance if you equate intolerance with asserting boundaries nonviolently - this is the literal basis of unconditional love.

I specifically said to ask AI if it's normal for a 15 year old to be 6'7", or a 18 year old to be 6'9". Go ahead.

Flat earthers are overwhelmingly MAGA types? They wouldnt like this idea, which is based in literal evidence you can see. Can't hide doping.

Yes, since it isn't the future and we dint know Barron's height at 25, since he isnt 25, I have to GUESS what height he will be, as done anyone. You're genuinely very dumb, huh?

Yes, if you understood what a standard deviation was, you'd understand that his height difference is significant even with tall parents. Again, so much so it is MEDICALLY RELEVANT and can INDICATE A BRAIN TUMOR (acromegaly). They know it's not a brain tumor because they've been dosing him.

Yes, I think Trump and Melania lie. Lol.

That would probably be Ray Peat. Ray Peat was friends with Linus Pauling, and he had a special diet he recommended (and lived to be 86, died in 2022). It focused on fat soluble vitamins A, E, K, and D, and promoted low low PUFA (fatty acids, eg seed oils), and high vitamin C. He did have a little PUFAs later in life in his diet though as he became elderly. He wasn't a quack, but it is likely his extreme diet was missing some obvious important components like omega 3s and 9s.

He is also the person who talks about proportions of fats to each other, eg taking vitamin E to combat negative affects of vitamin A, which is still used to treat vitamin A toxicity in ERs to this day.

Strawman, literally no one said that.

Came across the above link (view in Desktop mode) claiming to be an article from 1990 saying that Robert Maxwell not only intervened with these children, they put them on his plane. I was trying to find more information and stumbled on this link after reading the below article which said that Maxwell "may also have helped Jews get out of Romania in the 1980s."

It struck me at the time, with how many similarities Robert Maxwell had to Epstein ...including a love of Ghilsaine, huge financial fraud concerns, and a death that many think could have been murder. And how many people who fight trafficking end up as human traffickers themselves because it allowed them access to victims. It's just so strange that THAT man would have access to these victim networks, and that it would be so difficult to find since he allegedly was doing a good thing, right? It's not even in his obituary in the Time from 1991. But that's some Nobel Peace prize stuff, right? So why is it so hard to find except in passing mentions in articles?

https://www.timesofisrael.com/did-father-robert-maxwells-early-abuse-taint-ghislaine-long-before-she-met-epstein/

It would be interesting if he really was human trafficking those kids, and it would mean that Ghilsaine wasn't likely recruited by Epstein after her father died, but rather she recruited him to continue her work.

https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/crime/ghislaine-maxwell-robert-jeffrey-epstein-b2472888.html

Maxwell told the 2016 deposition that after Epstein was jailed she continued to occasionally work at his properties and kept her ties with him.

“I’m a very loyal person and Jeffrey was very good to me when my father passed away,” she said in the 2016 deposition.

“I felt that it was a very thoughtful, nice thing for me to do to help in a very limited fashion.”

Maybe she was loyal to him because he was her employee.

[Giuffre] claimed that Maxwell had directed her on three occasions to have sex with Prince Andrew.

https://www.grunge.com/656382/this-is-how-ghislaine-mawell-and-jeffrey-epstein-really-met/

https://www.forbes.com/sites/lisettevoytko/2020/09/30/ghislaine-maxwell-reportedly-met-jeffrey-epstein-through-her-disgraced-father/?sh=17e34bc370f4

According to Forbes, Maxwell and Epstein met through her father, convicted fraudster and tabloid king, Robert Maxwell. The pair was introduced as early as 1988, with Robert Maxwell reportedly providing funds for Epstein.

The claim that Robert Maxwell introduced his beloved daughter to Epstein comes from a convicted Ponzi schemer who had dealings with the men, according to Distractify. Other sources have Ghislaine Maxwell meeting Epstein through mutual friends around 1991, the year when Robert Maxwell died after suffering a heart attack and drowning.

Finding out how those two met is likewise quite difficult, which is crazy since both of them went through several trials detailing their crimes. The Forbes article even notes that its likely they knew each other before Robert's death because of a photo of them together around 19 days after he died.

WINDOW ROCK, Ariz. — The President of the Navajo Nation announced earlier today that he was sending police to stop the transport of uranium across tribal lands. In his statement, President Buu Nygren said that the shipment was being done illegally. He also stated the lack of notice from the mining company posed a danger to his people.

"The lack of notification to the Navajo Nation is a blatant disregard for our tribal sovereignty and exposes our Diné people to toxic uranium,” Nygren said. “A substance that has devastated our community for decades.”

During the development of the first nuclear bomb and the subsequent nuclear arms race, Navajo lands were home to a large number of uranium mines. Sites across the Colorado Plateau, many of them on the Navajo reservation, were used to extract millions of tons of high-grade uranium ore.

Energy Fuels Inc., the largest uranium provider in the United States, agreed to give the tribe notice before hauling uranium across exempted highways. According to Nygren, the tribe only found out about the shipment after trucks had departed.

[Nygren dispatched tribal police to turn away the shipment. But, according to the Associated Press, the trucks left tribal lands before police could intercept them.

"As president, I do not approve of this transport and will continue to fight to ensure our people are protected from the actions of Energy Fuels,” Nygren said.

While Tuesday’s shipment quickly left tribal lands, no guarantee exists that Energy Fuels will honor their agreement in the future. President Nygren has vowed to use roadblocks to prevent further shipments of uranium while the tribe develops regulations.

 

This has been a doozy of a year. And it's the best year so far blah blah. So how are you all coping? Does it hit anyone else like a bolt of lightning that probably I - we - won't die of old age?
