The ruling paves the way for Robert Zeidman to begin collection efforts after winning the MyPillow founder’s challenge to debunk his stolen-election claims.
I’m just not seeing the justification for your last statement, though I continue to agree with your comment regarding legality. No one’s opinions about me are going to turn me into a maga, and I can’t see how they would.
A boy, whose brain and reasoning/dialectical thinking faculties are still maturing but is showing right-wing indoctrinated tendencies, gets called a racist (when he killed people of his own “race”), vile bigot, SS officer-in-training, murdering psychopath, who doesn’t deserve a trial, a boot-licker, <insert_not_completely_fair_pejorative_here> will cause them to double-down with more fervor to the aforementioned belief systems.
So you don’t think he’s deserving of any of those labels or any pejorative at all regarding his behavior before, during, and since? And that the presence of those absolves him of any responsibility for how he conducts himself going forward? If that’s your position I both understand your prior comment, and acknowledge that we’re not going to agree. Regardless, I appreciate that you took the time to clarify.

No, not all of them, but that’s my opinion as someone who only knows him from the case.

If you’re talking about the presence of pejoratives, then, no, as I stated before, I believe they’re the primary reason he went further in that trend. That doesn’t absolve him of that “guilt”, but asserts why.

The reason I choose to “die on the hill” with previous commenters is that English requires nuance and precision in its usage for ideas, and even then, people will still leap to hyperbolic flights of triggered rage while reading too much into lazy, vague language. Chances for clarification before the ridicule and hate should be given more often.
So sometimes, I see a comment, and I ask myself “what exactly is being discussed?”, and I find myself taking a contrarian stance. I think that’s what any person who values free thought, inquiry, speech, and the quest for truth should do, even at the risk of being pedantic.

Fair enough, thanks for the exchange! 🙂
