@raphjd said in Liberals storm US Interior Department - liberals remain silent on act of domestic terrorism:

@bi4smooth

Of course, you forgot storming the Senate building, as well as trying to storm the SCOTUS building. Not to mention all the other acts of domestic terrorism I posted, from Wikipedia that even they called domestic terrorism in DC.

You liberals will never change.

I didn't forget anything - I looked at the exact "comparison" you proposed and "dug deeper" - some might call that "critical thinking" - in that I didn't just take what you said as "gospel", but rather looked at what you wrote, applied other knowledge, and determined to what extent your post was true...

In the BIG points, it was true: there were activists who stormed the Interior department.

I'm not really sure this rose to the level of "domestic terrorism" - it was a sit-in, not a bombing. There were also no weapons found on the protesters.

But even if I gave you that point: there is a difference between "domestic terrorism" - which is awful...

and insurrection - which is treason.

YES: Jan 6 started as a protest - but these protesters brought weapons & threatened the lives of public officials. Also, these protesters didn't want a change in government policy, they wanted a change in government!

That's treason!

So, I didn't totally disagree with your post about the protest at the Interior Department... I just disagreed with your use of that protest to create a completely false comparison to the Jan 6 insurrection in a blatant attempt to "minimize" and "normalize" the Jan 6 events.

Sorry Comrade - that page on the KGB handbook was leaked & the tactic won't work here.

You cannot compare a planned sit-in with a planned insurrection. Not gonna fly!

You may as well compare the Cuban Missile Crisis with the Edward Snowden impasse...

I'm shocked! I thought the people from Somalia were so peaceful.. although they are in a perpetual state of war, refuse to eat pork but will eat humans, execute people for being homosexuals, and when women are raped, they execute the woman for being a promiscuous whore.
Where else can you go if you need a head these days? Somalia is the place to go! They often have specials on heads. Two of theirs for one of yours! (That was a classic joke in Disney's "Jungle Cruise" ride until they removed that joke this year). How dare they refer to head hunters as being head hunters! We must respect their culture!

While I generally decry "political correctness", the Jungle Cruise rides at all of Disney parks were recently re-done - not JUST to update them, but also (and primarily) to add tie-ins to the new movie. (See Dwayne Johnson / Emily Blunt 2021 film).

So, while one who was so inclined might assume the worst, the fact is it's more a movie marketing thing than any attempt at political correctness....

@raphjd said in Norway "bow and arrow" terror attack:

@serenity

Thanks for the update/correction.

It's weird that the UK news was saying the stuff I posted.

In my experience, it's not uncommon for media (MSM as well as right- and left-wing media) to get significant facts wrong when initially reporting on major events. They're in such a hurry to be first they bypass their own standards of fact-checking and verification.

Not finger-pointing at any one source or side here: it's universal!

The real crime is that they bury the corrections where no one will see them.

Ours is a FUCKED UP world these days... and Social Media and the 24-hour News Cycle is a big part of what's wrong with it!

IMHO, news outlets - whether professional or private (meaning even individuals posting "newsy" stories in social media) should have to pay a fine - commensurate with their level of profiteering - for getting facts wrong. The more facts you get wrong, higher the fines.

Want to write an opinion piece? Say it is that at the beginning. Writing a piece about breaking news? Say that your information is unverified.

Of course, this would be a "sticky mess" - after all, who decides whose "facts" are right these days? Not to mention it runs counter to the 1st Amendment...

A "perfect world" wouldn't include as many freedoms - because one of our most basic freedoms is the right to be wrong!

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/reminiscent-of-jan-6-violent-protesters-arrested-after-storming-interior-department-injuring-officers

Absolutely more proof that liberals are massive hypocrites.

Reminiscent of Jan 6 because they attempted to "sit in"?

Let's see:

Goal of the protest:

• Jan 6: Overthrow the US Gov't to install defeated candidate as President
• Oct 14: Get Biden to change his policies

Total arrested on-scene:

• Jan 6: 1
• Oct 14: at least 55 confirms - some reports say more than 100

Individual persons identified as "targets" by protesters - threatening bodily harm and death:

• Jan 6: dozens, including the VP, Speaker, and multiple MOC
• Oct 14: none

Weapons brandished by protesters:

• Jan 6: Guns, clubs, maces, flags (used as clubs)
• Oct 14: none were armed

Last time there was a protest at each location where people illegally entered (breached) the building:

• Jan 6: August, 1814
• Oct 14: July, 2021

So you're right! There is so much in common!

For one, the Capitol Police and Federal Protective Services DID NOT just sit back and let this happen: they actually ARRESTED people and took them to jail - ON THE SPOT, not days/weeks/months later. LESSON FROM JAN 6 learned!

The attempts to make comparisons between these 2 events is nothing more than an attempt - by insurrection supporters (who are anti-American, if you ask me!) look less treasonous.

We burned down a forest and killed 5 people, injuring hundreds of others, and causing millions in damages...
Yeah, but that other guy burned down a tree and hurt some people too! Shouldn't we be treated the same?

Should these protesters have been arrested? Yes - and they were...

Should they be compared to Jan 6 insurrectionists?

No, and attempting to do so is downright shameful.

@raphjd said in Part of the Covid lie:

All over the "western" world, governments have been lying to us about the number of people dying from Covid.

Originally, in the UK, if you ever tested positive for Covid and you later died, no matter the actual cause, you were listed as a Covid Death. After about 9 or 10 months, they reduced the time down to 6 months and later reduced that down to 1 month/4 weeks. They didn't remove anyone from the covid death list when they shortened the time frame.

So, you get a positive covid test and on the 28th day you commit suicide by hanging, you are now a covid statistic. It doesn't matter that you had battled depression your entire life and covid had nothing to do with your suicide.

Oddly, what they refuse to count as a covid death is all the people that died because they could not get the medical treatments they needed, because of covid restrictions.

Think about it, if you can't get life-saving treatments because of some government restrictions due to covid, you actually died due to covid. This is not the same with someone who tests positive for covid and 4 weeks later slips and falls off a roof.

Also, why did CNN remove the covid death counter from their website and tv screen overlay at 12 noon on 20 Jan 2021? I mean that had it up for over a year, but suddenly took it down for no reason. Hhhhmmmm.

You are SUCH a tool!

So, if it's all been a LIE, will those people the Gov't chose to hide away and FAKE as COVID-19 "victims" come back? Or, were they MURDERED by by the Governments as part of a cover-up!

If it's all been a LIE (or a HOAX!) then how did they get LITERALLY EVERY COUNTRY in the world to go along? Russia & the US, China & Taiwan, N & S Korea, Iran & Israel... They ALL agreed to cooperate for this HOAX!

So, Mr. "I can do critical thinking": If your morgues and funeral homes are renting refrigerator trucks to store all the dead bodies... if your hospitals have no room... if you don't have the capacity to test everyone, even all of the sick, with full-blown, 100% sure-its-COVID-19-and-determine-which-variant-it-is tests... then, riddle me this, BAT-FUCKER-MAN:

How do YOU propose they decide which deaths are due to COVID-19?

... without taking away from care of the still living?

When a herd of lemmings runs off a cliff (yes, if you are a denier, you ARE a lemming!), you don't REALLY need to test EACH ONE to know that EACH ONE died from the fall... it REALLY IS sufficient to just count the bodies and ASSUME that most died from the fall...

But if we TRULY want to get MORBIDLY TRUTHFUL here: the new deaths (in the west, anyway) from this pandemic you call a hoax, are coming almost entirely (over 90%) from your fellow "COVID Deniers"... So truly, what the rest of us SHOULD do, rather than try to convince you that it's real, is just let y'all die off! Problem solved!

Is CNN not reporting something TRULY your threshold for validity??

@fearz said in Connected under wrong user...:

So, I signed in as user MaleMan, but am connected to the forum under the profile fearz... I think you might have a problem between the torrents and the forum.

It says MaleMan (my profile) was last online in January of this year and I've just noticed that when I come here, I am connected as fearz. Nope, that's not me. Can a mod see what's going on?

As far as I know, the main site and the Forum have separate user accounts, but logging into one is supposed to log you into the other - IF you have an account on the other.

That would mean the "links" between your 2 accounts must be broken.

@raphjd said in YouTube is at it AGAIN:

@bi4smooth

But it's you that demands we do exactly what Fauci says.

And you are a piece of shit.

Clearly, you needed to go there because you lost and that is all you had left.

That wasn't the question - which was: who keeps fixating on Fauci?

That's you, Comrade Karen!

And again, I'm not the "straw man" you're looking for!

I've never said Fauci was to be followed religiously! I said he represents the NIH and the CDC... Those scientists have recommendations, and we're fools if we don't CONSIDER them.

I've also said that the vaccines are safe and effective - 400-million doses is enough for me....

I've also said masks do work (studies say they do), they're harmless (Doctors and Nurses have been wearing them around hospitals for DECADES with no ill effects) and are a MINOR inconvenience given the public health benefits! That said, there ARE SOME who cannot and/or should not wear masks....

The fact that some of that aligns with Fauci is because we're RIGHT, not because we're in some secret society or that I'm secretly in love with him!

You, on the other hand, cannot get past his AZT past and if he recommended staying away from ARSENIC, you'd go buy as much as you could find just to spite him!

@raphjd said in Where are the Biden supporters?!:

You liar.

You DO NOT support legal and human rights OR freedoms for people, or have you forgotten your own stances?

What do I think about guns and gun control and the 2nd Amendment?

What do I think about Abortion rights?

What do I think about Government Spending?

What do I think about minority set-asides in government contracting?

What do I think about the US fighting in Afghanistan for 20 years, and then pulling out like a teenager whose condom broke? (I might've tipped my hand there a little!)

Yeah - you only know the "straw man" you wish I was!

@cinemacapman said in QTM (Quick Torrent Maker) no longer works?:

I tried twice today to create and post a torrent (The Guy Site Halloween Special) using Quick Torrent Maker...and had to delete it twice because I got an error message when trying to load the .torrent into uTorrent. It said something about an "invalid torrent file" or something. I then successfully uploaded my torrent doing it directly on the site...and had no problems with it that way.

It's my considered thought that because of that certificate update on the site a week ago, QTM will no longer work, and needs to be revised/updated somehow to correctly work with the new certificate on the site. I've never had any issues using QTM in the past, and I think this certificate change is the reason I had the problem today.

Mods and Admins please take note, and has anyone else had an issue with QTM since the certificate change?

Please use the help desk to report site issues. Moderators seldom read through the forums looking for problems to solve...

You and I have repeatedly had and are currently having the discussion.

You are against actual people having rights, but you scream like a crack whore in church when one of your own passes some stupid law.

No - you are discussing FREEDOMS: the freedom you have to post shit on YouTube and to have them pay you for it, and the loss of that freedom because YouTube determined that managing so many small producers was too expensive and stopped.

You are discussing the FREEDOM people have to post pics on Instagram, and the loss of that freedom when the owner of Instagram doesn't like your content. (Did the parable about the wall not help you at all?)

You haven't described ANYONE'S rights being trampled... only Social Media companies exercising their freedom in ways you do not like!

More word games to justify your bullshit stance.

Get one of your kids to explain it to you since you are too thick to do it on your own.

Are you suggesting I use too many big words for you?

English is a foreign language to you - I get that. Either that or your Primary School teacher would be very upset with you.

Either way, Google is your friend... all those big words have special meanings... English as a language has a different word for many very similar things (thus, the need for a Thesaurus!). Then again, English also uses the same word for multiple meanings.... hence: read

• Is that "reed" or "red"?

I don't envy adults who have to learn English! Kids do it easily because their brains have so many connections... by the time you hit 25, the number of available connections are WAY DOWN! Which is why "it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks"

Well, you don't think actual humans have legal or human rights, so fuck off.

You haven't raised any questions about human rights! You've only talked about freedoms!

If you want to talk about human rights, tell me why you believe that basic healthcare should be reserved for the rich?

If being born (and not aborted) is a basic human right, why isn't eating? Or getting medical care?

If society insists we bring these people INTO the world, then society needs to step up and provide them with basic human rights!

Newsome is a douchebag, but he did get Cal Grant right. He was a typical liberal with several other things he signed into law at the same time.

I'm talking about the latest rulings and you are talking about previous rulings that got overturned by later rulings. It's impossible to have a conversation like this.

You are so fucking tiresome.

I watch actual lawyers, talking about case laws. I haven't watched a cop show in years unless you are claiming that the Squid Game is a cop show because there are cops in it. Nice try though, you combative twat.

You shit-for-brains... I'm talking about the NEW court - the one STACKED with ORIGINALISTS who are VERY LIKELY to rule that there is no Constitutional protection of privacy - and thus, ALL of those rulings (and dozens more) will be reversed!

I know, you will never, ever be able to understand such a simple concept.

You silly twit - you really will believe anything they feed you, won't you.

There is nothing illegal about the CRT materials, and they are being sold to schools, not forced upon them.

Schools: Colleges and Universities, not middle schools for chrissake!

Garland is not hawking them, nor promoting the materials sold by his son-in-law.

Whether the classification of protesters against the CRT materials are "domestic terrorists" would depend on how they protested! And that would be the purview of the government to decide... if I could only think of the name of the department... not the Army, not Space Force, not the VA, not the Interior Department, not the Parks Department, not the Capitol Visitor's Bureau....
