I'm a mathematician; I too am aware of game theory and the principles of logic. Furthermore, you've made several mistakes.
Bullshit. This is a common tankie word game.
This is wrong
Partially because this is wrong. Logic can operate with incomplete information. Heuristics and the standard of "cogency" exist for this very purpose.
Furthermore, this criticism entirely ignores the context of:
Which is a blatantly immoral thing to do, regardless of how much information is available because they have decided not to regardless of available information.
Furthermore, this is an internet argument; I'm not threatening violence, and so it's absolutely asinine of you to act like I'm "violating [somone else's] rights". I'm making a argument online about the morality of someone else's choices. Your entire argument is sophistry.
