The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

It's not my fault the SPLC decided to commit wire fraud and perpetuate yet more hoaxes that liberals swallow with their prune juice every morning.

This is a great example of how we think differently.

Despite the fact that Trump and his administration have lied approximately 50,000 times (give or take 42), you believe everything they say. I’ve seen you twist yourself into a shape defending these lies that would make a pretzel look straight.

Now, in America, you have the right to believe lies. There’s no law against believing lies. So you believe the SPLC committed wire fraud despite the fact that the Trump administration is blatantly dishonest.

I, on the other hand, don’t believe the SPLC committed wire fraud. Why? Because the Trump administration has lied to me approximately 50,000 times (give or take 42).

Now here’s the crux of the biscuit (ok, I listened to too much Frank in my youth): Neither of us knows the correct answer to “has the SPLC committed wire fraud?” At least not yet.

You, will continue to believe that the SPLC committed wire fraud even if the case is dismissed or if they are found not guilty (there must be a conspiracy!!)

I, on the other hand (how many damn hands do I have?) will believe the SPLC committed wire fraud if they are convicted of the crime by a jury of their peers.

You will continue to believe the lies while I will follow the facts to the truth.
