Many of Trump’s proposals for his second term are surprisingly extreme, draconian, and weird, even for him. Here’s a running list of his most unhinged plans.

    I don’t see how that analogy is lacking in any way

    That’s your problem. I can explain it to you, but I can’t make you understand it. The closer the analogy tracks to the original statement the better the analogy. The fact that race and age are two criterion that a decision can be based is extremely weak. To point this out I named a dozen or more things that you could base a decision on.

    I’ve never stated that those aren’t two things you can base a decision on, but you continue to explain that point over and over again anyway. Race doesn’t track closely enough to age, an example of that is that age can often be a permissible reason to differentiate, but race never is. Ergo, bad analogy.

      Well, then how about you read the other points that supplement that one factor sufficiently and explain that

      example of that is that age can often be a permissible reason to differentiate, but race never is.

      you are wrong in this regard.
