Legal is a second language, and most people don't know it. It may be relatively easy to learn (compared to say, a whole normal language from scratch) but it's sneaky because it can look exactly like non-legal english.

Vance is a competent political mover. Since the requirements of being a VP are basically having a pulse, I suppose in that sense he's qualified. I oppose him on almost every front, but he's not like, too stupid to count. He's just a vile person and liar.

Correct. No one deserves this. No people. Punishing a people for what a nation's leaders do is a crime against humanity. There aren't a lot of those but that is a widely recognized one. It's called collective punishment. It's immoral. If you disagree, then I hope you have no power.

If you're interested you can check out The Language Log, or specifically the linguist Mark Liberman.

I guess the final point I'd make is that there are ideas that can only clearly be conveyed in passive voice that cannot be conveyed with the same meaning in active -- and vice versa. Denying the entire use of the passive limits your ability to communicate well.

My position is the mainstream one for linguists and basically no one else.
Philip and Rollie TF, rememberer of Aggie (@ripperelse.bsky.social) reply parent
It's a grammatical form that is appropriate maybe 5% of the time. But I see no reason to bar that 5%. And in creative writing no reason whatever at any percentage. All I'm saying to you is that it is not an absolute rule; there are times where it is fine in the contexts you give.

"whereas "held by police" is passive voice, de-centering the actor" I disagree. "[...] actually DOES have all the critical information [...]" Who is killed is critical information which is not included.

This is the only point where you were rude. No need for the patronizing part. You already admitted that you can be precise while using passive voice, and misleading while using active voice. You are using a heuristic as a rule, instead of just using the rule (don't be misleading).
