    If your water stops working in your bathroom, but you still have water pressure in other parts of the house. Without looking in the pipes, is it wrong to say that there is a clog?

    Even though you never looked?

    I never claimed to know what’s in Hale’s manifesto if there actually is one, and I don’t need to because I know what leads to a metaphorical clog, and CRT ain’t it.

      The only way to know if water stopped working in your bathroom is to observe it you have to look. Further bathrooms have shutoffs, it’s far more likely the shutoff was enabled. Water pipes getting clogged in a specific area is very uncommon so it would be wrong to think your pipes are clogged. It looks like you know as much about plumbing as the manifesto.

        It’s a metaphor. If you can’t even try to understand what I’m saying then I don’t know what to tell you.

          It’s a terrible metaphor. Claiming knowledge about something without ever seeing it is impossible.

            Humans can’t see X rays. Yet we claim immense knowledge of them.

              You need to work on your metaphors. We can observe xrays.

                No we can’t. X rays are beyond the range of human vision.

                    So we can know something with indirect observation? Congratulations for getting up to speed, now please apply what you’ve learned to my original metaphor.
