To apply Occams razor for Leftists:

1. Determine how many assumptions and conditions are necessary for each explanation to be correct.

2. Blame RAYCISM, Climate Change, Trump, or COVID* or any combination.

3. Discard all other explanations.

*COVID is simply a place holder for the current crisis event of the day being used to justify autocratic behaviour. Originally Posted by texassapper

There is something about your item #1 that does ring mostly true, but is somehow a little off. I realize that is what has flummoxed me about so many folks over the past couple years - their ability or willingness or needfulness to make so many leaps of illogic to shore up a crumbling belief, aka narrative.

It's like they are trapped in a parallel universe. One wonders if they can see reality across the void but just can't touch it or is there a high voltage fence, in their mind (sic), between the two universes that they can't muster the courage to cross it. When the reality is, it is a low voltage fence and they just think reality will harm them.

Maybe it's just indoctrinated confusion, creating free floating anxiety, which results in them believing that Up is Down, Wrong is Right or Men are Women. Likely they are entirely unaware of it even. So one wonders what voltage level event might be sufficient to shock them back to actual reality.

Assumptions are not a metric used in Occams Razor.

From the questionable folk at Wikipedia:
Occam's razor, Ockham's razor, or Ocham's razor ( Latin: novacula Occami) in philosophy is the problem-solving principle that recommends searching for explanations constructed with the smallest possible set of elements. It is also known as the principle of parsimony or the law of parsimony ( Latin: lex parsimoniae ).
... Quite So! ...

You didn't quote where "assumptions" are used.

They are eliminated.

Hence the kettle does not care about the lack of colour in the assumption.
