No. If that worked, necrophilia would be credible in the eyes of the public. It's banned so completely it isn't even mentioned except as an extreme fetish for people who are, presumably, mentally ill in the eyes of the mainstream. Banning necrophilia does nothing for it: It only finds purchase among a tiny few, the ones predisposed to go for it. Idiocies like the imaginary laptop are similar: Only those predisposed to fall for such fallacies are swayed, as proven by Republicans losing elections of late.

Besides, the people who support the DON'T SAY GAY bill certainly think banning discussion of a thing makes it go away entirely. Reality refutes them.

<< No. If that worked, necrophilia would be credible in the eyes of the public.

It is a non-sequitur. It simply does not follow. If it was intended as an analogy, it fails at several levels.

Still, in the spirit of continuing this conversation, and extending this metaphor I will play along.

Has necrophilia been reported in NY post touting its discovery or its relationship to current WH occupant? Have other publications later confirmed that necrophilia was indeed present[1] and was not limited to just necrophilia[2,3 - note those havens of conservative thought like NYT ] despite initially recoiling from such revelations with horror?

Look, I get that you think you can wave me away by a distraction like a slogan 'don't say gay' and turn it into a political sparring match, but you can't. Gays exist. Laptop exists. Pictures exist. It would appear a crack addict exists. Facts are facts.

Personally, I would strap on man. It is going to be one crazy show. If you want my advice, just enjoy the ride.

<<as proven by Republicans losing elections of late.

Yep. Them crazy republicans losing all them seats in the house and senate barely held by democracts. Such a resounding loss it was. I am sorry but I have to chuckle a little at this statement coming from someone on the internet claiming to describe reality. It is just a little surreal.

Not yet, but there's a long way to go until 2024.

Yes, I get that you believe in Hunter Biden's magic laptop. I think it's nonsense and that you've been duped, and you need to respect my beliefs, because trying to ban them will only make them more credible. Really, you're the one being unreasonable here.

<<you need to respect my beliefs

No. I only need to tolerate them. And I do. The moment tables turn and your beliefs are on the chopping block, I will be the lone soul advocating for you on the same basis. I actually believe in right your to express those beliefs. I would not even consider banning you. Aren't I a chump?

However, in my admittedly simple world, there is no automatic respect. And as such, I have little respect for people, who do not look at what is front of them, or worse, pretend it is not there. It is a recipe for a disaster.

<< I think it's nonsense and that you've been duped

It is possible. I was wrong before. We will find out during the exciting finale of US 2024 election! Don't miss it!

<< there's a long way to go until 2024.

We are in agreement here. It is a long time in politics, but you have to admit that the pieces are in place now. I know that key power centers have stuff ready for release on known candidates ( and furiously research any challengers for any flaws that can be exploited ).
