The funny thing is... He thinks he's some hotshot trying to discredit you... But the only actual people who even watch his videos are basically us, the forum people and subscribers who notice the video reply.

I just took a look at the League of Reason forums. Nobody even acknowledges his thread or presence there. Oh, by the way... why would anyone even want to join that place? It's barren as hell.

My first post there (since it was ostensibly set up to fight invalid DMCA claims) was a post about my experience fighting them and a link to the DMCA counter-claim, as well as a link to a PDF file made as a guide by and for documentarians about fair use.

I was flamed for it.

The only other thread I participated in was a health care thread, where I posted several links to statistical analyses and scientific papers, and I was flamed right and left for making stupid dogmatic claims with no evidence (no one even ACKNOWLEDGED the links I had posted), all the while claiming they had the evidence while refusing to post ANY.

The "League of Reason" is NOTHING of the kind.

As a person who tried to help Shane in the latter, I can definitely vouch for what he says here...

Don't you mean sum of the forces, or net force?

See?
It's not force, but rather, the sum of the forces.
As many problems with this law I've done, I should know. X_X

Okay, let's consider pressure:

The SI unit of pressure is the Pascal (Pa). Pascal is N/m^2. Since a Newton is a kg*(m/s^2), we can resolve the equation as:

1 Pa = 1 kg(m/s^2)/m^2

So, pressure is (mass * ACCELERATION) / area. The acceleration component IS there.

I never said the units weren't there.  Again, I'm an Engineering Student, I should know.

I'm saying you're wrong about Newton's Second Law; it uses the sum of the forces.

He claims Shane, "moved the goalposts" because Shane first used the word "you" (meaning either his viewers of Kawel), to that of aliens, when it was clear he was using it as an illustration to explain his first point that green != sign of life.
I also facepalmed when I saw that he strawmanned Shane about satillite orbits.  He was obviously talking about articial ones, not the natural ones.  This is blatant by the fact that he talks about the launches from the equator and the like.
For someone who claims to be very good at understanding English, he sure doesn't do a good job.
Either
1.  He's a liar
2.  He's a dumbass.
Either way, he's still wrong.
I can't even parse what the fuck he's talking about in the end.

What's more, he kept going on about how he'll, "debunk his politics", well, MGK if you're reading this, DO IT ALREADY!

Wow! That's quite a gauntlet he threw down!

Indeed. :)

Also, here's a comment I posted on Ladyattis''s video:
"It's been a month since he [MasterGhostKnight] first posted his original video attacking ShaneDK.
It's been four days since this [Ladyattis's] video, and still nothing else from him.
At the risk of jinxing it, it's safe to say that MGK is a little chicken-shit, with nothing else.
Until I see otherwise, I'm convinced he won't even be trying to debunk anyone's politics (negative claim with no burden of proof = win).
And even if MGK did, if history is any teacher, it would just be more of his wordsmith bitching.
To MasterGhostKnight, if you are reading this:  Fuck you."
