Again, you're literally flipping the standard halfway through your chain of "reasoning" ๐Ÿคฃ You don't get to apply your absurdly generous standard to them and my reasonable standard to me, that's not how logic works. You have to either be reasonable in both cases or be absurdly generous in both cases.

It doesn't really matter how much reason or evidence I present to you, can't argue with blind faith. It seems you're not only unwilling to reason and think critically, but unable to.

I weep for our education system. I suppose it's achieved it's objective of producing an unquestioningly loyal subject incapable of thinking for yourself or reasoning independently, following whatever your told. You must be an American, because only my countrymen are this confidently stupid.

Now you're lying about what I'm saying? Your standard for "lying" is that someone says something untrue and it's hard to prove that they knew in advance it was untrue. So, clearly you're a liar.

Let me dumb this down to your level.

"Double" is a word for when you have two of something.

You use one standard when looking at whether the media is lying.

You use another standard when looking at whether I'm lying.

1+1=2

So, you're using a double standard.

That means that your logic is complete bullshit. End of story.

A child could understand this. If you can't, you're either brain damaged or trolling.
