A well-researched, superbly edited, humorous video explaining why every American, especially a senior, needs an #AR15 #gun. In all seriousness.
Or how to build the perfect straw man with a bit of a circular #logic thing goin’.

His logic: US civilians need the same #firearms as their #military, because their military has been using firearms developed by the private sector for private use…
All the while, avoiding to discuss the failure of #Americans to organize and fund a government that would provide a quality of life not requiring a grandmother to live with an AR-15 gun (as if she’s in some Afghanistan?) 🤷🏻♂️
Oh, and… yes, speaking of other countries. The author does say that all the non-armed grandmothers of the world have been in grave danger. Like, you know, Japan? Taiwan? People outliving most Americans?
Reminds me of gastric bypass surgery to “solve” morbid obesity.🤦🏻♂️
Why is logical consistency so rare these days?
• logical consistency no longer considered a #virtue?
• #logic, in a broader sense, no longer considered a virtue?
• priority of self-centered #emotionalHealth / #boundaries over rational, albeit cold truth?
Something else? 🤔
The 2nd most amazing property of #logic to me is the moment when a growing #human either learns to understand and use it… or fails and will never ever understand nor use it later on.
The chasm between logic-enabled and logic-disabled.
A learnable set. Non-#DNA (unlike taste).
Is there a #method for #teaching #logic and #rhetoric to #illogical and confused adults? Or is it too late? Any research on this?
I’m having great fun digging into fuzzy #logic: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzzy_lo…
