Yes. Plus I asked an AI and they said this is just an absurd conspiracy theory (of such tenuous feasibility that the flat earthers all enthusiastically started supporting it), so I'm pretty sure thats conclusive.
Is this performance art? Am I being whooshed right now?
No seriously, you think its more likely they're giving him growth hormones to make him taller vs. he's got tall parents and he is himself tall? Or that they're lying about him having a growth disorder?
Attack them for the thousands of legit reasons we already have, you don't need to make stuff up to justify it.
I specifically said to ask AI if it's normal for a 15 year old to be 6'7", or a 18 year old to be 6'9". Go ahead.
Flat earthers are overwhelmingly MAGA types? They wouldnt like this idea, which is based in literal evidence you can see. Can't hide doping.
Yes, since it isn't the future and we dint know Barron's height at 25, since he isnt 25, I have to GUESS what height he will be, as done anyone. You're genuinely very dumb, huh?
Yes, if you understood what a standard deviation was, you'd understand that his height difference is significant even with tall parents. Again, so much so it is MEDICALLY RELEVANT and can INDICATE A BRAIN TUMOR (acromegaly). They know it's not a brain tumor because they've been dosing him.
Yes, I think Trump and Melania lie. Lol.
This is... fascinating. Its like art imitating life imitating art. You really are going all in on what is, even for the trump administration, absolute bunko. Moon-touched, foundation eroding goofery. Why-oh-why you believe this, I cannot know. But you've given one lowly professor of vapid truths boundless mirth in this dark time, and for that I am grateful. Ad hominem, no homonim, etcetera etcetera.
Okay you ARE genuinely very dumb. Good luck with that.
Ah, but in ignorance is bliss! So which of us, truly, can know the loser? Is not the knowing of others but the knowing of self? Is reflected in defeat, victory? In victory, the ignomy of defeat?
Perhaps an appeal to the authority on such questions:
Seriously tho, not even waxing iambic, do you see how much store you're setting by this? Look, you're never going to convince anyone by claiming AIs as a credible source for anything you claim. Laying it out that, even if you did get your evidence from one, just take a page from this administration's book and lie about it.
... But you're still not going to convince anyone even if you do, you yourself present multiple more feasible theories for his abnormal height than "they're giving him hormone therapy" (why? what possible reason could they have for doing that? Seriously, why??). And surely I don't have to rip off the bard again to explain the fundementally quixotic nature of trying to malign the intelligence of someone while citing your own Genuinely™ inexpert opinion as a credible source, one to which you turn to establish the credibility of your claim? It's just circular citations, a death loop to the meaningless realms of pure chaos! You'll destroy us all with your speculation!
