And put it in a museum. You implied (probably because you believed the first ignorant dipshit that sold you a narrative you liked) that left wing groups wanted it destroyed.

Left wing groups do want it destroyed, its the city councils that wanted it in a museum.

The white supremacists were protesting against it being put in a museum. Even if what you say is true about some groups wanting it destroyed, that's not what was going to happen, and that's not what the racists were protesting against.

Interesting point being made that someone doing 60 retweets in an hour is unstable, even more interesting when it is a statement made by someone who lives on the internet talking ******** 24 hours a day.

Yo, FCBurnley. Remember when you said families aren't or weren't separated by your president?

What do you think about this?
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigr ... t-n1000746" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

3,000 families separated and out of that 3,000 they can only reconnect 60 of them. Are you OK with this? Are you happy that this is being done in your name?

Stormy Daniels stopped being his private life when he decided to pay her off to prevent her from hurting his election campaign. I don't care that he had sex with her, although if he decides to criticise someone else for infidelity i will happily remind people that Trump's not exactly got a clean history of monogamy.

And i don't think you know what waterboarding is.

So your obsession is just with me. You're not defending him because you agree with his politics, you're just attacking me personally because you don't like that i oppose him - because you don't like me.

That's interesting.

What is the purpose of publicly suggesting that someone "lives on the internet talking ******** 24 hours a day" if not to either bully them for it being true, or to try to make others think that it is true?

Think about it. You're mocking someone because you think they're doing something unhealthy. You mock them because you think they lead a life that i think we both agree would be one of a deep depression. There was a thread on here a while ago about depression. I wonder if you read that thread and are amused by the posters on there who are suffering depression the same way you like to imagine that I suffer from it.

And lets imagine for a moment you don't think i'm depressed in such a way that i don't really spend 24 hours a day on the internet talking ********, and that you just like to use such depression as a tool of mockery. How are actually depressed people on here supposed to feel when they read your posts and see that you're using something they're suffering with as a tool to mock someone else? How do you feel about yourself knowing now that that's what you're doing?

You probably haven't been doing this deliberately. I think if you had realised for yourself that what you were doing was mocking the suffering of people with depression then you'd have stopped on your own. You just hadn't thought enough about what it is you're actually doing. However it will be interesting to see, now that this has been pointed out to you, if you continue to try to use what use examples of what we surely both agree would be a life of depression as a stick to beat other forum users with. (n.b. I say "users" but i don't recall you trying to mock others in a similar way)

You're criticising me for something i almost never do anymore, and didn't do anywhere near as much as was claimed in the first place. go on. If i'm calling "all and sundry" names then find my last 3 examples.

So I've read today that Trump has invited Tiger Woods to the Whitehouse, to congratulate him on his Master's win.

Of course he's got black friends, but you were kicking up such a stink because he wouldn't congratulate the No1 draft because of his skin colour...

Actually, i was "kicking up a stink" (translation: mocked him lightly) because of how obvious it was. Trump is a racist whether or not he thanked the #1 NFL pick, there's overwhelming evidence of it. Why it was funny this time is just how obvious it was. Likewise when he defends Nazis and encourages violence. It used to be outrageous that a presidential candidate would do any of that, but now it's just become funny watching people defend it.

It's a worrying read but I'm not convinced by your assertion that we can't just dismiss her as a lefty with a sign. If you google someone and the only hits are them promoting themselves then it's not what I'd view as a reliable source.

Why do you think she is a reliable source? I assume there's more to it than that she's a life coach.

Oh for ***** sake. She's the CE ******* O of a company. Not just some randomer on the street with a sign. That's my ******* point. By all means do due diligence about what she says, compare what she says with what is reported in the press and gauge for yourself the credibility of what she's relaying, but my point is you can't just dismiss her as a literally a random person on a street.

Anyone can be the CEO of their own company, it doesn't make their word any more valid. I assume you wouldn't use the same argument when Alex Jones makes up whatever story, that it's a reliable source as he's the CEO of a company?

I'm aware that anyone can be a CEO of their own company. I'm also aware that being a CEO of your own company means you're much more likely to be a reliable person than literally a random person. Therefore it is harder to dismiss you. How the **** is this not clear already?

Yes, i would use the exact same information and make the exact same ******* point about Alex Jones if all I knew about him was that he was the CEO of a company. But i have more information about him than that, like a long ******* history of conspiracy bullshit that has been repeatedly debunked. What this woman is relaying hasn't been debunked and in fact is supported to some extent by wider media reports.

Are you under the impression that the only reason i find what this woman wrote credible is because she's a CEO? Is that what's happening here?
That's not something I do. I'm suggesting that idiots who automatically dismiss random protesters concerns (often while complaining that they're jobless, i might add) can't do that quite so easily. I'm saying that they're the ones who base options on such weak-as-**** thinking.

Why? I could understand your point if she was running a large company with credibility but she's the CEO of her own company, part of which is labelled Resistance Live and seems to be about trying to change US politics and getting rid of Trump.

Maybe I've dealt with a lot more CEOs in the US than you but they're no more or less truthful than the man in the street.

Maybe I've dealt with a lot more CEOs in the US than you but they're no more or less truthful than the man in the street.
oh my ******* god, you're still going.

I don't know how to make this more clear to you. IDIOTS WHO WILL DISMISS A RANDOM PROTESTER WILL FIND IT HARDER TO DISMISS A RANDOM BUSINESS WOMAN. Not me. Not you. Idiots and people who will use literally anything to dismiss others' concerns.

Well done though. You managed to drag the discussion away from the concentration camps and to my low opinion of the idiots who will automatically dismiss the words and warnings of anyone based on their prejudice against people like protesters.

You didn't mean it, or maybe you did, but well done anyway.

To be fair, so are you.

I see your point now, it's not quite what you were originally saying (where you viewed them as a more reliable person) and I'm not sure if it holds much water when they're the CEO of an obviously left-leaning company and are clearly anti-Trump but I see what you're getting at.

It wasn't my intention to drag the discussion away (I was just curious as to why you seemed to give her account such weight and whether there was something I was missing, it turns out not) but on the other hand she doesn't strike me as a particularly reliable source so I'd struggle to have a view either way before looking into it more.

It's fine. It doesn't matter. If it wasn't these posts between you and I then people who want to ignore concentration camps in America, and the move towards secrecy behind them by moving them to military bases, would just find another excuse to ignore it.

Not quite like what was said? More like nothing like. Goalposts moved as soon as it was clear you were right and couldn't be argued against. Result - change the angle of the argument in a weak attempt to save face.

Bit of a shocker for a racist to do that don't you think?
Or, as Damo might put it, he's virtue signalling.

For those who were unsure whether or not Trump was racist it's good that he's managed to unequivocally confirm it.

Strategically I guess he's better off having a huge furore over him being a racist that being a child rapist
