    Very bold of you to complain about people jumping to bullshit conclusions, when you seem to immediately do that with anybody that disagrees with you. Also, watching and stalking somebody online for almost a year is not the flex you think it is. Block him, report him, move on.

    “But I then made a speech and it was a speech about the rocket and I devoted 25 percent of the speech probably to what happened or more to what happened with respect to George George Floyd and it was and then you listen to this he doesn’t talk about George Floyd the rocket went off I then I made a speech and I talked about George Floyd but they said he didn’t talk about George Floyd.” - Donald Trump

    And the other post with punctuation…

    “But we cannot let this … we’ve never allowed any crisis from a Civil War, straight through to a pandemic in ‘17, all the way around – in ’16 – we have never, never let our democracy take second fiddle, we can both have a democracy and elections and at the same time protect the public health.” - Joe Biden

    Yeah, removing all the punctuation certainly makes it much worse.

    If anything, this would be an appeal to authority. It’s not like the post is saying half of the American people believe it’s genocide and therefore it is. No, the claim is that several relevant organizations like the ICC, ICJ, and Human Rights Watch, etc., are saying that it is genocide. That’d be like claiming that the vast majority of climate scientists believing in global warming is supporting evidence that global warming is likely true. It is. It’s not enough evidence on its own, but it is evidence nonetheless.

    That’s the thing. Not all appeals to authority are fallacious. Supporting a claim with an expert’s opinion is a logically sound way to support an argument.

    In this exact scenario, I feel like the bottom track would slow the trolley down quicker, no? There is no room to stabilize, just pure flesh on wheel, 24/7. Not to mention the constant sharp turns, I think it would topple over long before the top one reaches its final kill count.
