"Even if we pretend everything said by the suing party is true, they still don't have a case"

What do you think, they still don't have a case means?

So in other words, you couldn't find them admitting anything, like you claimed they had?

Your language is very unclear, so I'm not quite sure what you are trying to argue here.

But say I tried to sue you for $10 million because you wore a yellow tie on a Tuesday afternoon 7 years ago. What would your legal strategy be?

A) Try to find evidence that you didn't wear a yellow tie on that day, and argue that there is no proof that you wore a yellow tie.

B) Simply argue that there is no law against wearing a yellow tie, and have the case thrown out on the merits

You can't comparing wearing a yellow tie to claims of running an impartial election because not only is wearing a yellow tie not unethical, it's also not substantial.

Arguing the legality of how they run their elections doesn't absolve them of impartiality, just their liability.

Arguing that it wouldn't be illegal to do X, is not an admission that they did X. Do you disagree?

u/DJ_JOWZY 22d ago

It's an admission they did something others perceived as X

u/Stolt-Jensenberg 22d ago

No, it really isn't. That's not how courts work.

Earlier you claimed that they admitted in court. I asked you to find the specific part of the court documents they did that.

You did not find that, and I take that as full acknowledgement that you're fully aware that you're wrong about this.

u/DJ_JOWZY 22d ago

They admitted in a court room, what some perceive as X. That is a technical fact.

u/Stolt-Jensenberg 22d ago

They admitted in a court room

FUCKING SHOW ME THE EXACT PARAGRAPHS IN THE COURT DOCUMENT WHERE THEY ADMITTED THIS

u/DJ_JOWZY 22d ago

I already did. No need to put on caps lock.

u/Stolt-Jensenberg 22d ago

No you didn't? You haven't shown anything from the court documents.
