I never thought about that before, but I guess that's one good thing about having already been an adult by the time the Internet existed.

Where do you live that there isn't?

Nothing to see here folks, just more of the China hoax on climate change.

Believe what I tell you, not what you see.

I won't name any specific organizations, but the upshot is that you need to consume a variety of news sources from different countries and in different formats. It also pays to get into very specifically focused news organizations.

Right, no doubt, but still totally irrelevant to the fact that if you're of a certain age, Hulk Hogan is way more famous than the Tiger King guy and Dog The Bounty Hunter.

I'm not here to defend his historical significance; that's something you brought in and has nothing to do with my position.

I'm not arguing that he was more significant, just that he was pretty fucking famous. What part about this do you not understand?

So you admit that the original comparison was crap

Good. My point remains.

Where did I "[spend] paragraphs telling [you] an argument is bad"?

Go ahead, I'll wait.

Maybe you've mistaken me for someone else.

I used a few short and simple sentences to explain why your position is crap. That's it.

Right. There's nothing difficult about your idea and I definitely get it.

My point is only that it has no basis whatsoever in the reality of US jurisprudence.

It's nice that you have these ideas, just know that they are completely irrelevant in a legal context.

This doesn't seem like a bad faith question at all.
