Emma Watson's dig at JKR

[IamSarah]

It appears she said at the BAFTAs 'I am here for all of the witches... bar one'

Disappointing but not unexpected.

🤣

That really isn't the Gotcha! argument you seem to think it is.

'I suggest you do some research into that.

As a society we are constantly changing and evolving and that's a good thing. Some of the ways our society behaved in the past and even behaves now are awful and the hope is that people learn and do better. Any group that claims to be something supportive and then rejects and attacks people who don't meet its ideology or don't look the right way or think the right way is never a good thing'

Yes society constantly evolves. However if you were to dig up the human bones of those from the 1700's, the 1900's etc etc and many many years into the future, you will still only find the skeletal remains of human males and human females.

I hope the irony of your last sentence isn't lost on you.

Indeed. Only one "side" doing the attacking though. Funny that.

Not funny sad.

@SpinningTheSeedsOfLove

I'm going to come clean.

I have no idea what she said or why she said it, or why Rebel Wilson said what she said, and what it all means, if anything.

Same

That really isn't the evidence I requested from you.

Please provide your evidence and I will gladly agree with you.

You asked for a picture?!?!?

And no. As it is you who is arguing that black is white you need to do your won research. Should you be able to pin down what it is you are actually asking for.

@samphirethestickerist do you think that poster is asking for an actual photo of the cover of the DSM - 5? Bit odd.

On their part, not yours I hasten to add!

What are you actually asking for @BlindGirlMcSqueaky?

I have no idea what they are asking for? I only offered that as a possible solution. It would be interesting to know what picture that poster actually did mean.

This is a long winded way of saying that you can't provide any evidence.

I don't need to research your conclusion. You should have done that already and be able to provide evidence to support it. If you can't or won't, then I'm afraid you have failed to convince me.

Oh, it's a possible solution now. So you don't actually know why it happens? 😬

I'm quite an adept lip reader. Without the sound on, which doesn't usually help anyway, I see that as "bar one". She usually has clear diction, and her mouth doesn't make enough movement for "by the way". Anyway, cheap shot, unnecessary, and won't age well.

Agreed

Convince you of what?

You seem to be asking for proof that we humans have not exhausted all possible avenues of knowledge.

At the same time as suggesting that as long as there may be more than one iota of knowledge as yet unknown all extant knowledge is incorrect, incomplete.

It's like, is the sky really blue? The experienced answer is yes. The real answer is no.

Which version do you want?

Do you expect to float away into the sky when you step forward? Or do you accept that we understand gravity, mostly, as a species if not as individuals?

You are arguing like a 5 year old. That's a great intuitive step at that age. As an adult? Maybe not

The book and pages asked for.

The only way the words "by the way" are coming out of that mouth shaping, is if EM is operated by a ventriloquist. Which is not a possibility I am ruling out at this stage.

No book or pages have been asked for.

I suggested a possible publication in answer to the request for 'a picture'

Sorry that one is blurred

@gigglewater

More pages

Oh! I see. Couldn't see any pictures in your first post. And at least that saves me popping into the library and doing the same 😊

Nice as your pictures are maybe I should 'be kind'

But I suppose that as this will be updated again and again it isn't actually proof of anything. So we are all doomed to knowing nothing. Not even whether the sun will rise in the morning (hint, the sun has never risen).

Hmm, does the book have pictures 🧐

All together. Hopefully not as blurry as some thinking.

Sorry Ronnie. Tis a dry time in all its iterations.

Oh! Do graphs count? Maybe a diagram?

I'm afraid it's not just one side doing the attacking.
