Yea, we wouldn’t want anyone doing anything illegal with crypto… 🙄
What % of the public do you need in order to qualify usage of the statement “general public?”
Is it 51%? That would mean 49% do not agree.
Correct.
If you want to say “there’s a percentage of the general population that likes chocolate,” that would be a true statement; but by the same account, it also means “there is a percentage of the general population that does not like chocolate.” The former implies the latter, and when it breaks down like that, you’re really not saying fuck-all.
Provide some percentages.
100% of me is a % of the general public. Thus, the general public does not agree that all AR-15 owners are conservative dickbags.
You’re almost there…
Now when you say “a pear” you’re not taking about portions of the pear, you’re talking about the whole thing.
So when you say “general population…” without qualifying the specific portion you’re referring to… go ahead, I’ll let you say it…
I’ll go with the guy that wasn’t explicitly referenced as the one “who rambles on until the media cuts him off and fart himself awake during trial daily.” Shit, the fact that people are considering someone who’s in trial daily is incredibly disappointing.
You’re clearly still misunderstanding and misusing the term. “General population” is 100% of itself.
“General population” is typically in reference to prison populations; but the term can be used when referencing a full sample size, E.G. 70% of the general population associates red caps with MAGA.
You provided several links (many of which were not relevant) that support the idea that a portion of the population (not the whole of a population) believes something. I am having a hard time figuring out why you are unable to differentiate a % of something from the whole of something.
Am I making an assumption when I think the general public associates red baseball caps with MAGA Trumpers? No, because that’s one of their symbols.
Again, you are doing the same thing, so I guess you're consistent. I associate "MAGA" hats with Trumpers, sure... but my initial inclination when I see a red hat from afar is that it's a baseball cap (maybe Angles, Cards, Reds...). Once again, I am a portion of the "general public" that you're completely ignoring; and in doing such, you make a logical fallacy.
