they believe nothing.
Which is also . . . a belief.

Oh no, Jocko. You have triggered me.

Dare I worm-can open? I dare.

Lack of belief in something is NOT a belief. It is a nothing. For it to be a belief, one must fill the void of nothingness and believe in something in the void's place.

A small nit, I know. But an important one. Why is this important? Because it's bad thinking, and bad thinking leads to bad conclusions. And that's how you get democrats. Even the highly intelligent can be guilty of bad thinking. That's where I come in.

And remember. You will never beat me in argument if I have the truth of a thing, and rarely if I don't.

#GiveUpNow.

p.s. And for bonus credit, more debunkery.

Nobody believes in nothing. They may not believe in specific somethings, but nobody believes in NOTHING. You are hereby corrected. Again.
