The term ‘misinformation’ is meaningless when defined by a political party for the purpose of controlling speech.

Yes, that would be egregious. Luckily however, in cases where claims can actually be proven or disproven – such as the efficacy of a medicinal treatment – the term "misinformation" means something very different.

@Lash,
You referred only to Paul Pelosi's story so that's who I referred to.

I am not American and do not read all the zillion bits of news that's put out in your country; consequently, I don't know what the cops said, initially or later.

@Lash,

How is this censorship, exactly?

@InfraBlue,
For a day, no stories were listed under their Come back later ‘disclaimer.’
They leave their disclaimer up as though they are in possession of unbiased, completely subjective facts when they are driven by a lucrative relationship with Democrats.

At least they have allowed the stories to be found, though. So big improvement.

@hightor,
They were wrong—and their statements have caused a lot of deaths of preform babies and children 0-25.

A lot.

I have 2 words for that. Negligent homicide.

@Lash,
Not only does that not make sense but it's irrelevant to the point. You're grasping. Just go have a lie-down.

@Mame,
She's not having a good day, don't be mean to her.....she'll have a tantrum and start naming every Canadian she can think of and labeling them anti-American. I know it doesn't make any sense, but I told you..............."She's not having a good day".......makes her cranky.

Isn't that something. You write that comment referring to Lash and I've just now recognized that crank is the root term.

@Mame,
Your reading comprehension is severely compromised. You missed the meaning of my last two posts you responded to.

You take a lie down.

Well, maybe Trudeau’s Canada beats us.

Try again. I can help if you can’t do it.

How do statements by "they" (whoever "they" are) cause people to die? You mean like a voodoo curse or something? That ain't "negligent homicide".

Nope; it wasn't in the context of an argument, just an observation shared with someone else. Check out the book, Arguer's Position by Doug Walton to learn more about ad hominem and its use.

@hightor,
The reason why progressives engage in personal attacks is because they are incapable of addressing people's arguments.

You don't pose any actual "addressing people's arguments", you simply post your opinion and then get flustered when other people disagree. These are not personal attacks, as you call them, they just disagree with your opinion. You don't seem to understand that people get annoyed when they read the same response over and over and over and their patience disappears attempting to engage with you. In other words, it becomes painfully boring............attempting to talk to someone who simply can't understand the dialogue is asking too much of them especially since you don't have the ability to even try to understand.

One of us has studied Formal Logic. That would be me. One of us hasn't. That would be you.

If I say to you, "Nobody here trusts you to be truthful" or even if I were to say, "Dang, woman, you have improved upon any prior achievements by other high level dipshits in the competitive realm of advanced dipshittery", neither statement would be an ad hominem. The first would be a truth claim and one which is readily available for empirical verification. The second would simply be an insult.
