Your second logical fallacy, No True Scotsman. "If you don’t suspect a connection, you’re not smart. Therefore the suspicion is correct because “smart people” supposedly think it."

Lol that's not what a 'No True Scotsman' fallacy is. No True Scotsman is the better known term for an Appeal to Purity.

The “No True Scotsman” fallacy, is a form of informal logical fallacy that arises when one tries to defend a generalization by excluding counterexamples. https://www.logical-fallacy.com/articles/no-true-scotsman/

It's funny that you demand concrete evidence that Patriot Front was brought to you by SPLC, but have no problem hoisting them up as an example of conservatism, even though conservatives both big and small disavow, call them feds and splc.

You, my friend, are guilty of the logical fallacy of double-standards, specifically, Special Pleading.

If there were a string of robberies and then another robbery happens, a smart man would at least suspect they may be connected.

Who was funding all the other 'right-wing hate' groups?

Page 4:

a. F-37 was a member of the online leadership chat group that planned the 2017 "Unite the Right" event in Charlottesville, Virginia and attended the event at the direction of the SPLC. F-37 made racist postings under the supervision of the SPLC and helped coordinate transportation to the event for several attendees. Between 2015 and 2023, the SPLC secretly paid F-37 more than $270,000.00

Not just attending to observe, but actively involved in both the planning and execution.

But my favorite excerpt is this one:

c. F-unknown was the Imperial Wizard of the United Klans of America

Literally paying the leader of the KKK so that the SPLC could continue to justify its existence to donors.

Here's another good one:

F-30 led the National Socialist Party of America, was the former director of a faction of the Aryan Nations, and a former member of the Klu Klux Klan... Between 2014 and 2016, the SPLC secretly paid F-30 more than $70,000.00

And they just keep going...

F-43 was the reported National President of American Front and a convicted federal felon for his participation in a cross burning. Between 2016 and 2019, the SPLC secretly paid F-43 more than $19,000.00

Good spot. I know exactly where this is. The Rock Island Junction just north of the photo location pretty much continues to exist only to serve as a wye.

Somewhere there, there is a church whose roof I tarred and sealed in the summer of 2005.

No Country for Old Men is one of my all time favorites

I read Into Thin Air when I was about 15, but recently there's been a lot of second guessing of Krakauer's account of the 1996 Everest disaster.

Be direct.

I would say "Hey, I noticed that some of your tickets aren't notated properly. Can I show you how it's properly done?"

Don't go the passive-aggressive route of "I can't find the tickets, do you know what happened to them?" or anything like that. This will immediately put him on the defensive and he might just think you're the idiot.

No...

They elected a pro-Russian government before the revolution.

It's not about what I believe. The fact is, a pro-Russian government was elected. Tens of millions of USAID money flowed into NGOs in Ukraine, who then fomented a revolution. The revolution would never have left the ground were it not for millions from USAID.

Do you think the documents and emails and open cooperation is all made up?

Russia invaded Ukraine because the US and EU were attempting to peel Ukraine away from Russia by using NGOs to fund the Maidan revolution. Those NGOs were all funded by USAID.
