To support us on Patreon (thank you):   / rationalityrules   Steve breaks down the debate where Emily Wilson called an ICE shooting "justified," then spent ten minutes building her entire case around one principle. It sounded airtight. Then Dean Withers asked her to apply it just one more time, and the whole thing came apart. The collapse is something else. The moment Emily realises she's trapped is genuinely uncomfortable to watch. Steve walks through exactly how Dean got there: where the burden of proof actually lands, the moment the goalposts start sprinting, and the single question that left her with nowhere to go. If you've ever watched someone confidently argue themselves into a corner this badly, you know the feeling. This is one of the cleanest examples you'll see of a principle holding up right until it gets tested, and what happens when it finally does.
