i think this thread needs a lot MORE gatekeeping, that the criteria should include the truths hit like a BOMB, not just conventional wisdom or back-patting

that german paradox is tying my head in a knot
is that a way of saying "that's true, but only when it's true"
― the late great, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 05:12 (twelve years ago) link
is that how german people say begging the question??
― the late great, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 05:13 (twelve years ago) link
From what i can tell, it's a way of establishing the correspondence of truth across languages:
«Schnee ist weiß» is true, if and only if snow is white.«Snow is white» ist wahr, dann und nur dann, wenn Schnee weiß ist.

yeah but that's not what it says in german
it says
