  • "Beyond any doubt" would mean abolishing it. It is an impossible standard

    Any case held to the standard of "beyond any doubt" would be trivially defended. It is theoretically possible we're all in the matrix and the whole case was just faked by our all-powerful machine overlords. Is the doubt reasonable? No. Is it a doubt? Yes

    I'm in favor of abolishing the death penalty. We shouldn't do it with roundabout semantics and sham trials though

  • Tax our wealth, super-rich tell politicians at Davos
  • Just because some people call it a wealth tax does not mean we should perpetuate the micsonception

    It's an income tax on high earners, and objectively not a wealth tax no matter how many people call it that

  • Tax our wealth, super-rich tell politicians at Davos
  • They aren't saying it because they really want to pay more taxes

    They're saying a system should be put in place where the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes

    It's a subtle but important distinction
