Hate to break it to you, but proof is actually require verify an extreme claim. You've offered one very ambiguous video. You haven't offered any proof, and you mock people for demanding it. Definitely should find a better use for your time than falling for right wing hit pieces.
Your entire argument boils down to "I saw something on the video no one except right wing ghouls and the anti-left centrist squad sees", and it's made you far too invested in the poisonous world of drama YouTube. Rich of you to pretend I'm the irrational one.
A video that can be interpreted a hundred different ways *isn't evidence*. That's the part you refuse to believe because you need Hasan to be, as you put it, a bad man so you can feel superior to him. Get the fuck over yourself.
I also wasn't online until just now to respond, because I work for a living and can't be online 24/7. If that bothers you, tough shit.
Hasan didn't shock his dog, you fell for a lie. If you think otherwise it's your job to prove it, and a video that doesn't prove anything isn't proof.
You have *no* evidence. It's not weak evidence; it's none at all. Meaningless drivel. Slop. Trash. Waste product from a horse's bum. Complete bull crap.
"Dog didn't move" isn't evidence, it's nothing. I called it fake because the entire story was a made up hit piece that you fell for.
The video is not, by itself, proof, but it's the only proof offered by anyone for this theory. It proves literally nothing, and leaves the burden of proof on the accuser to defend what is, quite frankly, the opposite of occum's razor.
Difference is that we have dozens of witness testimonies from the women themselves, while we have no such testimony from the dog. Unless you speak dog now and have been holding out on us this whole conversation? The video is ambiguous and not definitive, the right immediately called it abuse.
Are people still beating this dead corpse? That was fake, never happened, entirely promoted by right-wing trolls desperate for content. Shouldn't be given the time of day.
Stop shoving Copilot down our throats when no one wants it and stop funding a genocide sound like such reasonable asks, but Microsoft is the opposite of reasonable.
Work disaster of yesterday; "Oh good to hear you're using Copilot now, we love Copilot here" from the team who does zero coding and just uses Copilot to summarize technical shit so they can look smarter than they actually are in front of people who don't know any better. God, I hate them.
I was just going off of "BlueSky poster who's left of center". 😅
Not much of a bet if it's only $5.
Right-wing mostly but not exclusively, but my guess is that by far right they mean overtly political MAGA.
Literally all I buy on Amazon is cat treats, because cat will cat and only eats specific treats not available anywhere near where I live. Can confirm they're like double the price of 2-3 years ago.
And this removes the possibility that Jones or someone from his company tries to revive the brand again due to "disuse" in the future. The last thing you want is a right-wing revival of the brand.
I get the desire to not ever hear from InfoWars again, but making it a pariah will almost certainly prove more effective than pretending it doesn't exist. Especially since the money from the sale can go to the actual victims he hurt versus just nothing happening for them.
Famously, burying your head in the sand and ignoring problems is the best way to fight fascism. Wait, no, that's bullshit.
Mock them. Belittle them. Tell them they're fools. They cannot *stand* being ridiculed, drives them insane. And if anyone deserves to suffer it's Alex Jones.
And if you do it you will never be set free, because even the fucked up world of Disco Elysium still has a better justice system than the US does.
Preferential medical treatment, using their stalking technology for medical procedures, maybe some eugenics; normal fascist pre-genocide stuff.
The fact that all her popularity was in the first 3-4 weeks and then they took that momentum and did nothing with it was embarrassing. The Democratic convention in Chicago was such a shit show, and it was all "we're just a little to the left of Trump, we promise" from there.
Seriously; would it kill the Democrats to find a candidate that isn't pro militarism already?
Choosing to fund the military and the police over condemning the Gaza genocide or doing anything remotely progressive is why Temu MAGA lost to OG MAGA. Try again.
Before you ask; I still voted for Temu MAGA, because I know how our fucked up country works. But god, we needed so much better.
That's the fucking point of midterms; to vote on who you think is fit for office. You're allowed to judge people for their actions and behavior, including warmongering. If you think politics *aren't* about image, you're insane.
All you do is repost identity politics. To each their own, but yelling at a mirror is loser shit.
Sorry for the ramble. I had an extra 90 minutes of free time with nothing but my phone yesterday, and killed a good portion of it tracking the storm patterns. 😅
Finally, there was an actual tornado over near Lena (Stephenson County, west of Rockford) about an hour before all this. While nowhere near Metra the fact that the weather was definitely bad enough to produce at least one tornado meant another was a real possibility.
...there was a real concern a tornado might touch down, and winds in places where estimated to be approaching 60 MPH. Metra, in an abundance of caution and/or avoiding liability, chose to play it safe versus take a train into a place with a possible chance of the train being knocked off the track.
Per my weather app; tornado warning was from 8:45 to 9:15, due to a storm was moving Northeast across Northern Illinois passing over Palatine, Crystal Lake, and Lake on the Hills, among others. While the conductor appeared to have confused "there are funnel clouds" with "there's a tornado"
Roads blocked leading to at least one village (Lena, up by Rockford) blocked entirely (though it should be cleared by tomorrow), and a lot of trees down. By me at *redacted* there's water in every yard. No casualties I've heard of so far but it's also late.
