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

The actual truth is earth-shattering (Let's put it this way; The shape of the Realm [FLAT] is a minor lie in comparison.)

And lest you think deep research, assessment & knowledge is quite uncommon, you'd be surprised at how mistaken you'd be.

I don't doubt that you and your colleagues research deeply, and I'm sure you use some of the same heuristics and sorts of reasoning as professionals, but it often starts from incorrect premises and you don't check each other's work critically.

If you mistake the base-rate of evidence loss then you're going to make a logical step to an unsound conclusion to suspect conspiracy instead of other explanations. If there's not enough diversity within the intellectual community, you won't strongly consider alternatives. Other conspiracists will not call you on this. You will end up with a bad explanation and feel justified in it.

My theory is that Hamlin died on the field the night of the incident.

And you explain the multiple photographs of Hamlin since then, how?

You find it plausible that the NFL, his family, the on-field medical staff, related stadium personnel, UoC Medical Center personnel, Hamilton County coroner and law enforcement, Buffalo hospital medical personnel, Bills' front office and staff, the entire Bills' roster/training support staff, and any related media entities that have covered his hospital stay or visits with the team are all just lying so that the NFL can say he did not die? Some of those people would have to have committed felonies in order to pull off what you are suggesting.

What the hell would be the point of that? Players have died on the field in the NFL and other major sports leagues before. What is the goal here?

Its where the bricks came from for Ft. Jefferson. Or at least that is where the masonry firm who did the brickwork was located.

Obviously (well, obvious to anyone less cognitively-impaired than Liberator) the bricks were either formed in Maine and shipped down on barges/coastal supply ships OR the clay/material was shipped raw on bulk carriers and the masonry done on-site.

Yeah, yeah. I know what you mainstream sheep think.

Now I want the truth of why the aliens faked this all from Maine.

Could be possible. It was either really bad or the players were dramatic. Hard to tell knowing professional athletes.

If demar didn’t hide his face none of this would be discussed. He absolutely has his right to privacy, but this goes away with him being a public figure and him going out in public to the game.

I’m discussing the topic. God you must be upset about my hodge twins comment.

It does make you wonder why he's hiding his face in almost every public picture.

It's fricking January in upstate NY. Put two and two together if you can. If you can't, I'll help you. It is fricking cold. Stop being a moron.

It's ambiguous evidence. You could also interpret that as that it's more plausible that the real Damar wears his hood that way and thus it's more likely the figure in the stadium was him, right?

Yeah. I think climate change debate is a good example of that. You probably see the majority creating the consensus as untrustworthy and I tend to see industry using selective-sharing, industrial selection, and to a lesser extent biased production using their power to tip the playing field. I think people often tend to focus more scrutiny on the side they already trust less, though, and you miss some of the untrustworthiness on the side of a question you already trust more.
