Yeah dick pics are definitely all that was happening with the Hunter Biden / NY Post saga.

Would you like to buy this bridge I have for sale?

Do you have any evidence or is this like the widespread election fraud lies?

Do I have any evidence? What, are you a policeman? If you truly believe it was just about dick pics, let’s sort out a price for that bridge.

NFI why you’re on about election fraud, you’ll have to show me where I made any claims about that.

I’ve found anyone that uses the “bridge to sell you” line doesn’t have any actual evidence for what they believe except it “feels right”.

Good for you. I haven’t seen any evidence for the “it was only dick pics, definitely nothing else” theory, I assume you have some?

So you want evidence to prove something didn't happen? How are you on Hackernews?

If this is your level of understanding of logic, reason, and debate, how are you even able to tie your own shoelaces?

Normally you'd be right about how you can't prove something doesn't exist, but if you go up thread you'll see that xcrunner claimed that the laptop contained only dick-pics. It's fair for Alvah to ask for proof.

Had xcrunner simply asked for proof the burden would be on Alvah to provide it, but because xcrunner made a claim he took the burden of proof on himself.

Excuse me? No I didn’t.

I was never discussing the leaks. I was discussing what Twitter took down (aka what was reported to them).
