Fair enough, but answer me this - the "forced to share shower" article, why did you not bother to read it

Quite honestly, it's not something I have considerable interest in. It's one of the last things I care about when it comes to Biden and his policies, and shared it for the sake of others who may be interested.

As I said before, people post far more inaccurate sensationalist articles by left-wing media, and no one ever bothers debunking most of them. Debunking fake left-wing news in US political threads was a full time job before I ignored all the TDS trolls.

Update: As it turns out, the headline appears to be accurate. The policy change does in fact mean that female soldiers will be required to shower with transgender people who were born with biological male chromosomes. The sensitive topic of biological gender chromosomes vs chosen gender is not one that I have any interest in discussing, especially in this forum, so we will leave it at that.

You state you despise dishonesty, yet you post articles which are outright lies, with headings worded to sensationalise, and probably in the hope that many target readers will simply clutch their pearls and scream "look, we told you so".

Now, if you actually read the Biden order, and then go on to the military handbook and read the relevant portion, you will soon realise this story is utter schit

The false Lancet article you posted, I put down to simple error.
I've seen two others, admittedly I don't recall which they were, but now a 4th one.

It would appear the "simple mistake" is part of a pattern forming.
There are only two conclusions I can come to:
Either you are embodying the dishonesty you claim to detest,
Or, you are simply posting deceitful articles in order to underpin your narrative - truth be damned.
Either way, you are actively poisoning the well from which you drink.

Those 2 aren't mutually exclusive. :)

Wishful thinking. If you're going to troll, put more effort into it.

If you believe anything I say is a copy/paste, go ahead and find a copy of it anywhere on the internet. :popcorn:

'Lawyer up, and get out': FBI first spurned Hunter Biden laptop, says Delaware tech repairman​


FBI "didn't show an interest in any of the money" after seizing Hunter Biden's laptop, according to John Paul Mac Isaac, the computer shop owner who reported it to authorities.

John Paul Mac Isaac, the Delaware computer shop owner who unwittingly came into possession of Hunter Biden's laptop, says an FBI agent initially gave a stern warning to his family when first offered a copy of the explosive evidence about Joe Biden's son: "You better lawyer up and get out of my office."

In a wide-ranging interview Monday with Just the News, Isaac described what concerned him most about the contents on the laptop, his extensive efforts to get authorities in law enforcement and Congress to pay attention to it and his anger at the news media, Democrats and even security officials who initially accused him of carrying out a Russian disinformation campaign or trying to make money off the discovery.

Quick to judge a bit - Think this is my first post on this topic... so not sure how you can decide I've been fooled by far too many of anything?

Hey rich, welcome to the jungle, and let me introduce you to Dave real quick...

Twenty-Five Rules of Disinformation.

/snip
Invoke authority. Claim for yourself or associate yourself with authority and present your argument with enough ‘jargon’ and ‘minutia’ to illustrate you are ‘one who knows’, and simply say it isn’t so without discussing issues or demonstrating concretely why or citing sources.

/snip
Associate opponent charges with old news. A derivative of the straw man — usually, in any large-scale matter of high visibility, someone will make charges early on which can be or were already easily dealt with – a kind of investment for the future should the matter not be so easily contained.) Where it can be foreseen, have your own side raise a straw man issue and have it dealt with early on as part of the initial contingency plans. Subsequent charges, regardless of validity or new ground uncovered, can usually then be associated with the original charge and dismissed as simply being a rehash without need to address current issues — so much the better where the opponent is or was involved with the original source.

You said a lot in your single post. You need to be mindful that I have spent years researching this topic, have had these discussions in many echo chambers, as well as investing much time into correcting false narratives with my own relatives. I can tell very quickly when someone has been programmed by the dishonest left-wing media, and I know from first hand experience how much time and work is needed to undo the damage.

As for your out-of-context Trump quote, that was leaked private locker room talk, something that most men engage in to some degree. It happened in 2005, long before he ran for president, and is neither as bad as you think it is, nor would I even take it into consideration when assessing his suitability or competency as POTUS.

Ta-Dah!

You absolutely, positively *do not* need to be mindful of anything Dave posts.

I find your responses are the same thing over and over again. And I'm sure even you realize most of your posts could quite easily be directed at you as well, as I have pointed out before. Take a look in a mirror sometime..

Deciding to side with your buddy and not out him on something he's done... is that the same as saying the sky is green? Well, okay then. I guess that makes everyone the "slime" you're talking about. They lied by ticking the T&C box that said they read the T&Cs... LIERS!
They killed a bug once, so they are killers.

Surely there's a glimmer of recognition that not all things are the same?

Wasting your time bud. Appreciate your intentions but your energy is better spent elsewhere.

Then go ahead and provide an example of a claim I have made, which you can prove is a lie with indisputable evidence.

To be clear: It must be a claim I made myself, not an article I linked. There must be indisputable evidence proving it without any question, so it can't be a general statement but a clear single fact which can easily be verified without any doubt.
