Really? You haven’t seen a rise in facts being deemed false? Or maybe news being deemed fake? Maybe there’s even been a new term created for it that is being thrown around a lot by one side in particular.
Doesn’t seem like a good idea to give them more examples they can point to when they want to discredit your facts
From an outside perspective on the other side of the world, I disagree. Any lie, once uncovered, makes it so much easier for even the the worst positions to be defended. ‘See, they have to make shit up about us, they have nothing’. Bam, now even all the other factual points are discredited in the eyes of many people who may have been on the fence.
Jd is a creepy weirdo, but the couch story was made up.
Not directed at you (unless you already knew it was fake, I guess) - I fucking hate it when people feel the need to make up stuff about someone who already has plenty of real red flags that need attention.
Here’s the first one I found. Maybe there’s more, who knows? https://www.abc.net.au/news/2008-04-29/emotional-buswell-admits-to-chair-sniffing-incident/2419558
So I’m assuming you misread it, but let’s pretend for a moment that it was a Democrat pouring water into a Republican’s bag - that would make you ok with it?
Try to not fall into that ‘us vs them’ at all costs mentality… You should hate it even more when ‘your team’ does something shitty like this, it lowers them and makes it far easier for the opposition to look better in comparison
He makes $210,000 per year…?? I’m not saying important and dangerous jobs like this shouldn’t be well compensated, I’m just very surprised that it IS this well compensated
A chunk of solid ice that big at terminal velocity? I’m betting yes, very much yes, very messily yes
It gets worse the more I read the article… This guy spent a few weeks in blackface, thinks that he ‘became a black man’. Then goes on to conclude that while it might be harder to thumb a ride as a person of colour, systemic racism is completely over?? We did it folks!
This fucking guy is only claiming that he’s an IDF soldier in an attempt to intimidate a woman who is calling him out for being aggressive towards another young woman too. Pathetic
Right?? Their very first point is such inflammatory bs, it’s insane that they would try to prove it with that source. The most basic reading comprehension will tell you that they are making stuff up.
Most Gazans agreeing that the actions of Hamas on Oct 7 were ‘correct’ does not equate to those same Gazans agreeing with every single Hamas stance. Such a dumb leap to go from that to “Most Gazans want to kill every Israeli”… Pathetic, evil, pro-genocide bullshit
No no no, I think you misunderstood me. I’m saying that your link was much much better at telling the full story, and it was the other articles I read (posted elsewhere) that failed to tell the whole story. It was those other articles that were disgusting reporting.
Edit to put the link back up, because I think it’s important: https://www.austinchronicle.com/news/2023-04-07/might-have-to-kill-a-few-people/
Thank you for this link. The first article I read on this only gave Perry’s side of the story, so my first impressions were that he was an uber driver who turned a corner not expecting to see a protest, the protestors were worried about the car, and that one of them aimed a rifle at him.
Nothing about his messages about wanting to kill some protestors, nothing about the witnesses all saying that the victim did NOT raise his weapon, nothing about the rifle being recovered with no round chambered and safety still on.
Disgusting act, disgusting reporting, disgusting pardon. Thank you for your comment and link, truly.
Ehh, I give it about a 3.6. Not great, not terrible
Holy shit guys, take a breath and figure out what you’re arguing about.
ME5SENGER_24’s comment was technically unclear (yes I think it reads the way they intended it to, but I can see how it could be read the other way), and (des)mosthenes thought that “Most useless bunch of assholes on planet earth’” referred to the protestors, therefore thought the comment seems like it is wishing that the cops had killed 50% of them.
ME5SENGER_24 didn’t realise that their comment could be misconstrued, so lashes out at (des)mosthenes and calls them “fucking stupid”
Now they’re both all worked up, mad at each other, and not realising they are on the same fucking side. Just… Take a moment, relax, try to see why someone might be confused, and talk it through. For fucks sake…
For sure, and you know this because you also know exactly how many times you couldn’t tell… Wait
Anyway, besides how ridiculous that logic is, more importantly it doesn’t matter in the slightest how ‘feminine’ or not you think someone looks.
Haha yeah blame those victims
