14. Just count up the number of negatives. An odd number of falses is a true. So they say.

Easier said than done. For example...

"She announced she will resign after the Senate would not confirm her reappointment following her refusal to vote against repealing a motion to reject the authority of a committee formed to disband the study group that recommended against disqualifying the opt-out by protesters from suing to prevent being mandated to abstain from complying with an anti-racism resolution."

Is an abstention a true or a false? How about a "would not confirm"?

I get baffled.

It's like a couple toddlers, who, instead of going, "Is not!" "Is so!" "Is not!" "Is so!", instead go "Is not!" "Is not NOT!" "Uh-uh is not NOT!" "NO WAY uh-uh is not NOT!"
