Shelley Luther: My New Hero...

Maybe. But if someone tells me that they don't follow my logic I'm happy to spell it out with a syllogism as I did for you with Joe Walsh. You aren't willing to do the same which says that you either don't value being understood or realize that your argument wouldn't hold up under scrutiny.

Why do you keep responding? I thought you were too good to discuss anything with a caveman like me? Go on, shoo.

I never called you a caveman, I just said your argument makes no sense and the fact that you have no interest in drilling into it proves that you recognize that fact.

I know it sucks that you can't match my wits but that's no reason to beat yourself up.

After this and the moronic "syllogism" regarding Joe Walsh, I am pretty sure you are suffering from Dunning-Kruger syndrome. It's pretty sad. Everyone else seems to understand the analogy just fine. That you don't and want to run away, just shows that the problem is at your end, not ours.

Then, by all means, humiliate me by explaining exactly how you get from point A to point B.

Well you start at "A," then the next letter in the alphabet is "B" - do I really need to explain the alphabet to you? Are you really that stupid?

Regarding this thread, maybe you should just go here to this stupid post and start over...

75K dead even when massively undercounting. More dead than Vietnam. 7th most deadly event in US history, soon to be 6th most deadly.

But sure, *I'm* the one with the lack of compassion .

The numbers may increase to 150-200k because of the economic downturn and unemployment caused by the political measures to protect us.

So you won't explain your argument and now you want to act like an obvious joke was meant seriously to change the subject. As I said, the argument can't be defended. Cars kill, cars bad!

What makes you so sure there is "massive undercounting"?

I have no idea, I'll leave that to the adults in charge (which Trump hasn't fired yet :|).

If you think I'm happy that, one way or the other, my taxes will go up to cover Trump's catastrophic mishandling of this issue then... well now you know I'm not happy about that :).

Here's just one data point of many.

Kindly attack the data and not the source :).

A question isn't always a harbinger of an attack.

Really??

Yeah, they were judged safe to open.

Surely with hairdressing you inevitably have two people breathing the same air and in physical contact?

As long as practical measures were taken it was judged to be fine. The numbers speak for themselves, we saw no significant rise in infection.

[Leonhard]

Do you guys have to be so dadburn PRACTICAL!

Aw shucks you make me all proud of my country.

Of course, I wasn't directing that at you. I'll be more clear next time.
