Okay then, Iโll start the dialogue:
How can you support a convicted sex offender who shows no remorse?
I have a lot of immigrants in my family. Trump called them poison. How can you support that?
Why do you think a criminal & liar who tried to instigate a coup should be President?
"Some of you may die, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make"
Public records are for anyone, not just journalists. You simply have to request them.

Facepalm:
"The area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides. It is written as aยฒ+bยฒ=cยฒ.
"One of the interesting things about this bedrock mathematical equation is that for 2,000 years, no mathematician has been able to demonstrate the truth of it without simply using the equation itself as proof; what is called circular logic, and not accepted as true evidence of proof.
"Johnson and Jackson reference Elisha Loomisโs The Pythagorean Proposition, a book investigating this concept, which flatly states that โthere are no trigonometric proofs because all the fundamental formulae of trigonometry are themselves based upon the truth of the Pythagorean Theorem,'"
"Calcea Johnson and NeโKiya Jackson from St. Maryโs Academy in New Orleans said they had solved the Pythagorean Theorem using trigonometry"
...
"investigating this concept, which โflatly states that โthere are no trigonometric proofs because all the fundamental formulae of trigonometry are themselves based upon the truth of the Pythagorean Theorem,โโ"
That looks like circular reasoning to me, as well...
@cvwillegen The whole thing is a mess. Trying to work out what is actually claimed about deficiencies of previous proofs is hard, and probably non-productive.
One day I might have a closer look.
Not today.
