Good enough

Stupidity and credulity are spreading like a poison gas.

Because he says he is; that’s good enough.

So, saying something=that something is true. Always, because saying is good enough.

So nobody ever lies.

Quod erat demonstrandum.

Update seconds later: Apparently it’s a parody account. And yet, people do say that, if perhaps not quite so baldly.

    I guess that’s why “he says he is” rather than “she says she is”. Because surely no one who believes TWAW would ever misgender the poor chap…lady…whatever.

    Well, I’d say the misgendering is a pretty big clue. But it’s getting really hard to tell parody apart from the real thing these days.

    Whoops, iknklast beat me to it. (I got sidetracked while writing my two line response, and had not seen her comment.)

    And if they give him development approval to build a little house, and it somehow turns out to be what others call a 50-storey apartment tower, they will still rate him for what he says it is. There could be big $$$$ for someone in this terminology business.

    I wonder if it is not so much a parody account, as an account intended to appeal to the prejudices of Tory voters.

    @1: I thought of that, but there really are people out there, I think, who say: “I am a woman but my pronouns are he/him! Don’t you dare call me a man or use she/her pronouns for me!”

    But I think I haven’t ever encountered “My pronouns are he/her” — he in the nominative, her in the oblique. Yet.

    GW, I saw that in a theatre bio at a play we attended recently.

    @7: Which? “I’m a woman but a he/him?” Or: “I’m a he (nominative) / her (oblique)”?

    Woman, but he/she/them. Weird.
