"Reported facts" is an apparent contradiction in terms, and is an oxymoron.

You seem to be doing your damnedest to prove Robert's barb about your IQ correct.

That's how it sounded to me at the time of writing, on a par with
"alleged facts". But that's just connotation, and subjective, and it's
good to have feedback on what another person thinks. I'll keep it in
mind, and may use "purported next time. Thanks.

I remember the Ashtroll saying the same thing about me earlier this

you've posted been posting at least one false statement about me every
month this year, I'm going to have to ask you to PPOSTFU again.

It's actually not that easy to understand what's going on in someone's
unless they actually spell it out.

I was dreaming that this morning that I wanted to go back to Israel to live on my Kibbutz, and do an intensive ulpan to really learn Hebrew, and then romantic wishes of returning to S'de Eliyahu, and finding the girl with whom I bonded so tightly while visiting there, even though I no longer recall who she was. I was even really considering when I was there that I would want to live there, as in ideal permanent home and lifestyle for me, it was almost so perfect and fitting, except for being set apart as an American, and being so far behind insofar as Hebrew language/communication and Biblical learning....I liked and related to/felt comfortable with all their customs and traditions.

Would love to go back to Israel, would surely enjoy and appreciate it a great deal more than I did at age 13... Jordy was there in '19, he also was in Argentina and Hungary... So glad he had a chance to do so before the pandemic!

"Reported facts" is in no way a contradiction in terms, and does not
become one just because two people say it.

If it were a contradiction in terms, it would be an oxymoron, but it isn't.

You seem determined to want to prove it correct. But name calling is not
the way to do it.

The rule in logic is the same as in poetry: show, don't tell.

If you really think the terms are contradictory (and are not just doing
back-up flaming for Bobby), then show the contradiction.

LOL! Some (Ash, eg), are just as nasty about Fox. It may be true that
there are some media that don't report facts, but only wrong information
or 'misinformation,' and probably true that all of them report some
misinformation sometimes.

But they're also reporting facts -- true information -- and even the
most skeptical reader has to use them as the source of beliefs -- of his
"reality," as you've called it. It's undeniable that most of our facts
about the world are based on purely reported information.

But certainly not a true one. There are facts that we get from news
media reports; and we all rely on the media for such facts.

Jim believes 19 people were shot dead in Uvalde, Texas. So do I, and
I'll bet so does everyone else reading. That's a non-controversial
'fact'. But our only reason for our believing it's a fact is that it was
reported. It's a "reported fact" (as opposed to a sensory fact, eg.)

It should be obvious to everyone who reads it.

Maybe, but thinking about shows it's just as obviously wrong.

Some things reported in the media are facts; "reported" and "fact" are
not contradictory terms.

Are you seriously using the death of 19 children to try to butter your own bread?
Also it was 21, jackass. Two teachers were shot dead in front of their students as well.

THIS ONE IS A HOOT! Will George also blame sex toys for the school shooting and say Ted Cruz was right?

Ted Cruz has enforced more rules on dildos than assault rifles
Ellie Abraham
May 27, 2022
https://www.indy100.com/news/texas-six-dildos-handgun-carry

The Washington Post: last year Texas actually loosened its gun laws last year by passing “permitless carry”...
The rule allows anyone over the age of 21 to carry a handgun without the need for a background check or acquiring a license – this usually involves being fingerprinted, doing four to six hours of training, completing an exam and doing a proficiency test, says Texas Tribune.

You cannot drink alcohol at 18 in Texas but you can buy assault rifles...

In Texas It is illegal to own more than 6 sex toys (it becomes a felony), but you can own as many guns as you want.
Section 43.23 of the Texas penal code regulates the possession of what it calls “obscene devices”.

In 2007, Texas senator Ted Cruz, who at the time was solicitor general of the state, took part in a federal case to federal court case to maintain Texas’s ban on the sale of sex toys.

One part of the brief filed read: “There is no substantive-due-process right to stimulate one’s genitals for non-medical purposes unrelated to procreation or outside of an interpersonal relationship.”

The statute was overturned in 2008 allowing the sale of sex toys in the state, but there still remains more regulation on dildos than there is on handguns.
