Yep, it's a good one. "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts." One certainty is that all trolls who visit here have an overabundance of certainty. Some of the below are about troll certainty, others not about trolls, but all have relevance to that certainty quote. See:

conix, Experts and studies are divided on the justification for the covid lockdowns,
yet you have certainty where expert studies fail.

I still don't understand why you appear to totally ignore the factual info i gave you re the courts during a shutdown
[...]Also, should add, holding certainty where certainty does not exist is not always the wisest position to take. Just saying, pardner, we will never know for certain. It is too bad we will never know in absolute certainty which would have been the best path to take. You guys could be right, then again maybe not. There should be no certainty there on either side.

hap0206, Onward, Christian Soldiers—To War!
"And Posobiec's CPAC, "We are here to shut down democracy..." , likely one of the heaviest and
truest statements he has ever made should have been brought to the notice of every voter in the US.
"
[...]Darkness at the gates
What made the conference so unnerving was how close to power it was. A host of Republican senators turned up to pay homage and buff their own conservative credentials. There was Josh Hawley one night, and Jim DeMint, Mike Lee, Ron Johnson, and Rick Scott all shooting the breeze on a daytime panel about keeping government spending in check, interspersed with obligatory condemnations of the government’s persecution of Steve Bannon, Peter Navarro, John Eastman, and Mark Meadows?—?the Mount Rushmore of Trump-era ?“political prisoners.” There was Kansas Sen. Roger Marshall espousing family values and fundamentalism like an evangelical Of Mice and Men character. Marshall prayed for the ability to ?“do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly,” and chuckled that the folks in D.C. were no good at walking humbly.
“That’s why we need God at the Capitol,” he said. The fact that the certainty required to want to impose your religious faith on others is not very humble was not discussed.

Att: brooklyn13, 'It's a Killing Field': IDF Soldiers Ordered to Shoot Deliberately
at Unarmed Gazans Waiting for Humanitarian Aid
[...]"I was at a similar event. From what we heard, more than ten people were killed there," said another senior reserve officer commanding forces in the area. "When we asked why they opened fire, we were told it was an order from above and that the civilians had posed a threat to the troops. I can say with certainty that the people were not close to the forces and did not endanger them. It was pointless – they were just killed, for nothing. This thing called killing innocent people – it's been normalized. We were constantly told there are no noncombatants in Gaza, and apparently that message sank in among the troops."

B402, This is direct evidence your "Populism is a result of inequity" is not supported by research.
[...]They state clearly their research says populism is not at all driven by cut and dry inequality as you say it is.
Yet you state your umm results with such certainty.

Egocentric victimhood is linked to support for Trump, study finds
[...]The findings indicate that “political elites can rhetorically weaponize victimhood, and actually instill these feelings in individuals,” the researchers said.
As with all research, however, the new study includes some limitations.
“One major caveat is that we cannot state with certainty how the dynamics of victimhood will continue to play out. Victimhood is both bottom-up, like many personality traits, and also top-down, in that elite rhetoric can amplify, perhaps even induce, feelings of victimhood,” Armaly and Enders explained.

LOL, when Trump is president he's one who believes, to his bootstraps, what your ex-wife's grandfather said:
""Son, in America, even if the President is wrong, he is always right""
[...]Last week, Trump confirmed, yet again, his talent for self-preservation without a speck of regret
for the trauma and uncertainty he has caused.

There are so... many more, but that's likely to much already. ;-)
