re: Was Demar Hamlin really at the Bills v Bengals game?

The counter-argument to this is that knowledge has been built over-time by social structures that test it for falseness, reject the worst and provisionally accept the better ideas and periodically reject old concepts when certain thresholds are met.
People who say that they distrust authorities either over-estimate the authority of themselves (arrogant) and/or end up trusting unworthy counter-authorities, favoring "stigmatized knowledge" for its having been rejected by the authorities they distrust. It won't do.

I do have to say that you did it with much more panache.

You think a player dying from the jab would eliminate the NFL? That’s even more far-fetched than saying Hamlin is dead.

Can anyone prove Damar Hamlin wasn't actually eaten by an 8 story tall crustacean from the Paleozoic era on his way to the hospital?

Right. I was just trying to help other readers understand why you prefer a grander theory, which seems less plausible and thus less preferable to others. If one is already massively NWO-pilled on a near-omnipotent scale then you're gonna see the NWO as responsible for doing all sorts of things. If an omnipotent-NWO can do things like convincing the vast majority of the human population through history (except the most enlightened few) that conventional human knowledge is legitimate then what really CAN'T they do and why shouldn't anyone feel justified in attributing all sorts of fantastic things to them?

No, that it's not worth believing because there are many better potential theories worth believing.
Some recommended reading.

Okay and I simply ask why he hid himself. Simple question to ask.

So much this. The need to “fit in” and be part of a group that makes fun of others for thinking outside the box… while it might be natural it’s something people should be striving to grow out of instead of continuing to do.
It would be like me spending all my free time seeking out and shouting down flat-earthers. Are they wrong? Yeah. But are they wrong for questioning something? No.

Yep. Especially when dumb shite like this happens then comes out later. I saw a infant on the sideline less bundled than this demar dude.
Posted on 1/24/23 at 12:27 pm to bayoucracka
They're fine questioning it, but people are pilling each other with nonsense so it's fine to rebut the nonsense.
Posted on 1/24/23 at 12:28 pm to TigerDoc
Nah they are calling others loons and all kinds of names when they can’t even back up their own arguments.

Nobody is saying it’s impossible. We are saying it’s highly improbable. Of course, you can’t even define what “it” is. Then put the burden on us to disprove any possibility of the “it” you won’t define.
This isn’t a new tactic or process. There are dozens, maybe hundreds of scientific studies done on exactly what you are doing. You don’t have any special information.
And arguing these extreme conspiracies are not just possible or likely, but definite, lessens the impact of actual misdeeds that are wrongly labeled “conspiracies”. They get roped into the same category as this insane type of stuff.

It's fine to ask why he hid himself.
But that's not how the discourse actually works. The discourse works rhetorically to argue for a conspiracy as the best explanation.
That's the inference the reader is supposed to take from the way the posts are actually written until we start having to pull out applied epistemology concepts to reel people in, right?

Which group do you think this is, on this forum?
If someone is ridiculed for something like this here, it's entirely deserved.

Bingo. Ask for details, you get nothing. You get asked why is it wrong to just ask questions.
