anglophone replies on Dec 29, 2022:

@MizJ Agreed. I see Rethuglicans and corporations as being symbiotic in their combined objectives of widening the wealth gap, the health gap and the education gap. I do not see cleaning up the campaign financing or the lobbying as happening unless and until the Rethuglicans are thrown out of Congress and thereby prevented from subverting the Constitution for their own venal ends.

I have no time for @TheMiddleWay. He appears to have blocked me on both my main account and my silent account. He has less mental capacity than an inebriated paramecium (and he imagines that he is very clever - he suffers from a debilitating level of the Dunning-Kruger effect).

Unbelievable comment by that member! 😡

anglophone replies on Dec 28, 2022:

My experience of @TheMiddleWay is that he is both emotionally a disaster area and cognitively a disaster area. I am sorry to hear that you have been raped, and it says a lot about him, all of it bad, that he would rape you to drive home his non-existent point.

anglophone replies on Dec 28, 2022:

@Robecology Science never proves anything. Proof exists in mathematics, and even those proofs can be wrong. See for example Cauchy's Famous Wrong Proof, and Wiles' initial error in his proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. (On a frivolous note, proof also exists in liquor and numismatics, but I digress.) Newton's Laws of Motion were well supported by evidence, and perhaps considered by those who do not know any better, that such evidence "proved" his Laws. That was until Michelson and Morley came along and upset his apple cart. Einstein's ideas were initially considered as absurd, but they have turned out to be a better description of the natural world than Newton's description. The foregoing utilises the idea of "the weight of evidence". The weight of evidence idea also applies to the existence of phlogiston, to smoking and lung cancer, and to the behaviour of gasses and the associated anthropogenic global warming. Does this start to answer your question?
