Yous till haven't explained why it's relevant that flight 93 did not hit a building.

Based on his truth tree it doesn't seem to be relevant except that it motivated the tree. I think you could draw a similar truth tree without that proposition which makes the same overall assertion. (if I understood it correctly in my last post)

My chart is supurior because yours is just a bunch of literals. I only use one literal, 2 disjunctives, and three conditionals, with the assumption that we have more conditionals (more official story) that we have to swallow.

None of your assertions follow from the fact that no buildings were hit by Flight 93. Please explain.

So if I'm understanding, starting from the given that no plane hit the building, then if you believe the official story you have a lot of things to explain (represented by the huge list of propositions above 'Truther') that you don't have to explain if you express skepticism of the official story?

Are you saying anything else beyond that?

He's explicitly constructed a scenario in which all the variables which require proving are on the "official story" side, so he can say "but if I just don't accept those things have been proven then trutherism is correct". The exact same tree could be constructed except with the burden of proof on the truther side (eg instead of "Terrorists Decided To Attack The WTC" the variable is "The Government Decided To Attack The WTC") and come to the opposite conclusion.

All the negations above the truther are just a result of there being other variables. We don't really need to go down the road of deciding which terroist group is was if we don't think it was terrorists and we know it was planned by government officials in coordination with the planners, which is essentially the G in that tree. I hesitate again to call it government, when I really mean something closer to the former.

Doesn't that make it disingenuous to say that you've proven there's a flaw in the reasoning, though, when you've shifted the burden of proof in a way that most people wouldn't agree is reasonable?

Doesn't that just leave you in a position where you have to explain why the burden of proof is really on your opponent, so you still have much more to prove?

I appreciate your actually thinking about this. I think it does place the burdon of proof more squarely on the evidence, and it comes down to who you think you can trust if you are not getting the evidence first-hand. Why, though, would you just believe everything the government tells you? It's just a natural reaction that people don't want to believe they are being lied to, and have been lied to, and they bought it, so people will believe that story, but come on, it's not true.

There's video evidence that both tower 1 and tower 2 were hit by planes.

IT's pretty garbage handwritting, I admit. I just have bad handwriting, but it's far from meaningless. In fact it shows exactly the flaw in the logic of people who believe the official story.

AddMEonFacebook posted:

That's the logic truth tree people have been clamoring for, too. Stop trolling me please Popular Thug Drink.

AddMEonFacebook posted:

Haha, that was just a coincidence! I used Q R S just as variables. The other letters are statements like it starts out with the literal that there was no plane, then so either there was a bomb or it collapsed.

AddMEonFacebook posted:

They are great for when you have a consufing set of premises to test whether they are consistent. I essentially wrote that one out on purpose so it wouldn't be inconsistent. It's also far from complete.

AddMEonFacebook posted:

I already explained. It starts with the literal that no plane hit the building. Then, if you believe the official story, you really have to buy a lot of un-evidenced premises. I think the logic demonstrates this pretty clearly. I think a five-year old can understand it. Your unwillingness to learn is what's holding you beack, not your ability, for most of you. This is easy stuff.

AddMEonFacebook posted:

I made two other posts explaining the variables.

All in all, you've stated the definition of a single variable: "~P" means "not plane", and then from your other posts we can infer that C and B must mean "collapse" and "bomb". Where's the rest? What's L, R, T, Q, O, B, and S?

What do you mean by C, specifically? That the building collapsed on its own, or that it could have been hit by falling debris from another building and then collapsed?

The later variables relate to the offical story or some other possibility Q, R, S

L being some like Al-Queda did it or what you said that it was debris from the other towers, which was caused by al-Quada, and that already gets us to the end of the chart, but it could be extended with another premise like there were high-jackers ordered by bin-laden, B.

:psyduck: if you can just randomly reassign the values of variables, then it's not very logical, is it?

Look, understanding that debris hit Tower 7 (we have video evidence of this) does not take a stretch in logic or require any leaps in logic. We know for a fact that debris hit Tower 7. That immediately eliminates the other branches of your tree, which by your own logic means that truthers are incorrect.
