So, why did you use that example? The line followed your sentence about how the evidence is sparse. So, answe the question - is that an example of Disney being anti-Semitic? Or do you run away anytime someone points out where you're wrong? |
Lol. You got me. I'm very scared of being wrong on the internet.
I already asked you not to respond to me before, so obviously that's not the case. But fine. Since arguing with people on the internet is so important to you...
Mickey being a hasidic Jew is indeed evidence. Evidence according to the following usage; "Information presented in testimony or in documents that is used to persuade the fact finder (judge or jury) to decide the case for one side or the other." (https://www.justice.gov/usao/justice-101/glossary) Mickey being a hasidic jew is indeed a document that is used by many to persuade the fact finders (in this case the general public since we're talking about the court of public opinion) to decide that Walt is anti-semitic. I mentioned it to show the arguments used to support and to deny Walt being anti-semitic. Because you show both sides when you are presenting a case for your opinion. Obviously, since my conclusion was "The evidence suggests that Disney was not anti-semitic", I did not find this piece of evidence to be particularly convincing.
Of course, the word evidence has multiple usages. If I was using the word evidence as a synonym for "proof" then I actually would have been implying that Mickey being a Hasidic Jew is a clear demonstration of anti-semitism. However, since I spent four paragraphs explaining that I do not believe Walt Disney to be anti-semitic, that's obviously not the usage I was using. Context is important. If you were actually interested in having an exchange of ideas, that should have been abundantly clear to you. But you didn't want to do that. You just wanted to prove me wrong, for whatever reason you find that gratifying. So you interpreted it in a way to make me wrong.
Which is the reason I have asked you, twice now, to simply not respond to my posts. Because you are not interested in an actual conversation. You just want to prove people wrong, and interpret things to fit that agenda. If you find that fun, more power to you. There's plenty of people who are willing to engage with you. I don't find it to be a worthwhile use of my time. So, can you please simply not respond to me?
