Shoutoutloud's Waterfall RSS

This personal waterfall shows you all of Shoutoutloud's arguments, looking across every debate.

But... I mean ... shouldn't that be a given on a debate site like this?

Im not bashing excon, I don't know this person - I just find it an odd reason to have respect for someone.

The other disturbing thing is, it LOOKS like Trump KNEW he was exposed and still had a fundraiser in Bedminster, NY.. That would make him guilty of manslaughter..

Only if actual people died. You can't charge a manslaughter without specific dead people.

Im aware of that, but unless Trump dies before the election, then pence takes over his next term as well.

He's not going to die within a month. Covid19 doesn't work that fast. People are sick for weeks and months.

On the other hand I don't really think being airlifted to a hospital gives you that much of an advantage. I could take a 10 minute cabride to the hospital right now myself.

they weren't doing that. They were trying to calculate trumps chances, specifically.

If by debating you mean preaching propaganda, then yes he might be on the list of top debaters of all time, right after Hitler and Mussolini.

I actually think 10-20% sounds very fair. That gives him extremely good odds, despite his age and weight.

Those are some calculations I saw on a danish newsite, it was developed by the university of copenhagen. I don't know if they factored in his access to health care, but it would definitely be an odd parameter to leave out.

It is estimated that there is about 10-20% chance that the president will die from this virus - the factors you considered included.

That means that there is 80-90% chance that he's going to survive.

However... let's say he does die from the virus. That would mean Pence would take over his presidency for the remainder part of his terms - including the term he wins (if he does win)

So I don't think Trump dying from the virus at all ensures Bidens presidency. Probably ensures Pence's presidency, if anything.

Which constitution ?

Why limit yourself to the american flag? You could do all kinds of things. The PETA logo, the covid logo/illustration thingy, Kanye West... You could even charge extra for custom mades with like your bosses face or something. Those four are for free, for more ideas you'll have to hire me.

I'd be embarrassed if that's how the political debates were done where Im from. No dignity or respect. It was cringeworthy. I think I'll start a petition to release the country from the post ''leader of the free world''. what a joke.

Im afraid he hasn't lost any voters, because if this were to be a factor to switch sides, then Im guessing the reason has to be patriotism, right? Loyalty to your country. Which means if anyone were to switch sides, it would be a patriot, and someone who sees the unwillingness to pay taxes as a lack of loyalty to ones country.

EXCEPT THIS IDEOLOGY DOESN'T EXIST ANYWHERE ON THE AMERICAN POLITICAL RIGHT WING. Patriotism (which usually is a right-wing ideology) in the united states is not so much about being loyal to ones country as it is alienating the body that governs it. So if anything, more american "patriots" will vote for Trump when they see how badly he disresepcts to his own government.

he is much more pro states rights

Except when he tried to control the entire countries covid19 strategy. That's the thing with Trump, he is neither this nor that, because he is simply not consistent. You cannot count on him, he's like impulse buyer at Target.

We are being exposed to UVA and UVB rays all year round, even by some light bulps :)

Are you sure? Maybe I just didn't see your reply. And why would you reply in a "different thread"? Why not in the same thread?

It was after you shared a link to an article. It was written .. I think yesterday probably.

Yeah, it's fine that you clarified. But you never answered my reply in a different thread. I asked if we found a new primate species, with human like hands, would that feature be enough for you to categorize it as homo?

You never answered that one, you've just been nitpicking :) Which tells me you're not really interested in the topic, WHICH IS FINE, LETS JUST STOP HERE. Have a great day, my friend <3

Lol. I came in here and answered your question so I'm not sure what more I can do.

This isn't a question with an answer? This is a debate :) Scientists are not in agreement about this, so why should we? If I wanted an answer to a question I would've asked google.

That isn't simply the wrong terminology -- It's the wrong SPECIES.

I am danish, in danish both the word ''monkey'' and ''ape'' translates to ''abe''. So that is the explanation to my confusion of the terminology. I do understand the difference.

I am clearly participating because I am challenging your statements.

Yes, you are participating, but you are not participating in the debate I was fishing for :) you are very focused on statements that aren't important to the topic. Like for example, when I said monkey, you challenge the fact that I used the wrong terminology. And then we spent a great deal debating what exactly I said or asked, or what this debate is about, and then we debated what a definition and what ''abstract'' is. And now we're debating whether or not you are participating in the debate ;)

So yeah that's the summary of this debate :D

Alright well pardon me for not using the right terminology :p

Why do you even suppose there is any single quality which makes us human?

Im not supposing, Im wondering. Im fishing for a philosophical debate that you are clearly not willing to partake in :D which is fine.

Alright then, have a great day

:)

It's right there in the description. Did you only read the headline? ;)

But that is what this debate is though? I was asking how humans are different from monkeys or other primates.

If Ill ask how is a bird different from a plane, it's not relevant to say; well planes have longer wings.

Because then you can just find a bird with even longer wings, and it would still be a bird and not a plane.

So the question of the debate is what human quality is the DEFINING quality that makes us human? So that when we study a fossil from a primate, we can determine if and why that fossil stems from a creature that either is or isn't of the homo species.

Like... when in the terms of evolutions history did we go from being monkey to being human? What quality did we evolve that determined we weren't monkeys any more?
