He’s openly plotting to persecute his enemies, assume kinglike powers, and deport millions of people. But at least we’ll all have flying cars!

Many of Trump’s proposals for his second term are surprisingly extreme, draconian, and weird, even for him. Here’s a running list of his most unhinged plans.

    Your argument basically boils down to they are both fruits, therefore apples also have a lot of vitamin C.

    This is where you are wrong. My argument is and has always been “fruit a belongs in the category fruits, just like fruit b”.

    “Age discrimination consists of the following factors: [different treatment], [based on personal properties] - just like racism, which also consists of the following factors [different treatment], [based on personal properties]”. Go look it up up there.

    I don’t know where you’re pulling the assumption that I was ever saying anything different from, but that’s all happening on your end.

      I agree race and age are two bases for different treatment. If you have no point beyond that, then fair enough, your analogy is useless.

        Not quite, it did serve as another example of different treatment that is based on personal features. Mission 100% absolutely successful.

          OK, I agree, but how did that elucidate my understanding of the use of age as a factor in disparate treatment? Because, again, the myriad of differences between the two make the comparison inapplicable, IMO.

            It was meant to serve as an example for different treatment based on personal properties:

            • different treatment based on the personal feature “age” being called age discrimination and
            • different treatment based on the personal feature “race” being called racism.

            Nothing more, nothing less.

            I’m sorry, it didn’t satisfy whatever additional objectives you’re picking now, but then again it was never supposed to (and even if it did satisfy them, you’d just move that goalpost farther anyway).
