RE: Noteworthy News
Quote:Imagine getting upset, huffing and puffing and going on a multi-page rant like you and Nudge did and throwing out the race card because someone posted a news story in a thread about news stories. You claim now that you never supported BLM in the first place, and if that's really the case, then it doesn't even make sense that you would be upset about the BLM org being criticized. And you admitted that I was right when I corrected you for claiming it was only one loon, but even in admitting that you were wrong, you still need to go on a rant because it's me, so you need to entertain yourself by posting 50 memes. Have at it. Whatever keeps you entertained.
Imagine believing other people are mad when they are laughing at you. Imagine claiming people were throwing out the race card by pointing out the fact you are a simp for white nationalists. Imagine misrepresenting someone's position on BLM when they clarified it twice on this thread. Imagine claiming someone admitted something they didn't about something they already explained they were not wrong about. Imagine being a person that constantly goes on longwinded delusional rants where they get every point wrong and then accuse someone of ranting. And I meme because i'm laughing at your sorry ass because you are the forum lolcow.

Wow, don't you think that you are going too far by accusing Brewer of Holocaust denial? And you wonder why people don't take you seriously.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Pennsylvania has replaced some Civil War historical markers, one of which now refers to Confederate troops as 'enemy soldiers'. Some conservatives are already calling the new markers 'revisionist history'.

In other news, congratulations to Mark Meadows, the most recent graduate of the University of Fuck Around and Find Out.

Imagine pretending that BLM, who is pretty much the most talked about organization in America, telling people that they believe a proven fake hate crime perpetrator because of his skin colour (the equivalent logically to denying the Holocaust or claiming that Hillary Clinton is running a sex ring in the basement of a pizza parlour, or putting out a statement during the OJ Simpson murder trial calling him honourable and saying OJ should be believed because melanin), who was one of the few most talked about people in America when this fake hate crime first started to unravel, does not qualify as noteworthy news. Imagine pretending that. People here, including yourself I assume, put a lot of faith in BLM, so I guess it's to be expected that people are acting pretty cranky and throwing a bit of a fit now that their favourite organization just lost all credibility, completely exposed themselves, and sabotaged their own movement by denying the Holocaust. I'll give you your space to vent.

That's your own twisted opinion, not news. Fuck off.

I said BLM did the same thing, not Brewer, although he seems bothered by the posting of the news for some reason. If the mods intend this thread to be only for posting news about and criticizing conservatives, then the mods should edit the title of the thread to specify that. There is overwhelming evidence that Smollett set the whole thing up, just like there is overwhelming evidence that the Holocaust happened. This is where the Q-Anon comparison comes in. BLM is pretending that Jussie is being set up by the police, when that's clearly not the case.

I'm now defending a non-violent black man from having to serve any jail time, while Q-Anon Helios wants to lock the black man up and throw away the key for his first time, non-violent criminal offense. That adds up. Cheers. Have a good day.

Weren't you actually banned for saying he should have been acquitted even if he was guilty because you hate his alleged victim that much? No, defending an innocent black man shouldn't be against the rules, and Huggy Bear being a fervent defender of Bill Cosby (who I'm fairly certain has a far more damning case against him) without any bannings that I'm aware of should be a testament to that (the fact that, as far as I can tell, he just treats it as something Cosby didn't do and not something that was either okay or not a big deal, and doesn't seem to blame the women who say Cosby assaulted him for anything, should help matters.)

As for Jussie Smollett and BLM, It's overall a good movement. I just think the org made a mistake in defending him. I can get that they'd be skeptical of anything the cops do, but after everything that's come out, Hell, after Jussie said that his alleged assailants called Chicago, of all places, a city where 83% of the electorate went for Hillary in the most recent election, "Trump Country," I just think the org made a bad take.

I'm not even going to pretend I know what Jussie Smollett should get. Part of me thinks he should go to jail for crimes against optics alone, but at least the George Floyd killing undid what damage his horseshit did to the cause. At this point, I'd say that if his little stunt tanks his career without jail time, that would be sufficient.

I defended the justice system which says you're innocent until proven guilty. Nothing more. That's as far as I'm going to go into that because at this point it's a safe bet that writing anything more about that will be purposely misinterpreted to ban me. The fact that I only got 3 minor slaps on the wrist and short timeouts and was not truly banned shows that the accusations made against me were extremely iffy at best. If I had actually ever come close to defending the "r" word, you can bet your ass I'd have been banned for real, in a second, and there wouldn't be multiple posters making the argument in my defense that the bannings were unjustified. I have been posting on different atheist forums for over a decade and a half now, and in that time, I never received even a warning on a forum for breaking any rules, until I ran into one particular mod on here. I behave myself and always follow the rules.

You have a perfectly reasonable take about BLM. It's too bad more people can't just respond in a level headed way like you have here. You disavow what they said about Smollett, but you think that overall the movement is needed, and I agree. Protest is a good thing. Black lives do need to matter more, and I actually think it's a pretty catchy slogan and a good one. I've gotten crap on here for disagreeing with the BLM org though, and Antifa people attempting to burn down court houses. The responses are always "Why are you even bringing this up? You're racist for even mentioning that the BLM org is flawed or that attempting to burn down court houses is bad. Stop playing the victim and bringing up news I'd rather not hear about, etc, etc." And no one can ever actually point out one racist thing they think I've posted. All they can do is say that I like Dave Chappelle so I hate trans people or I find some conservative comic to be entertaining so therefore I am guilty by association. I agree with Vaush that the organization should have been called something different from the actual movement to avoid this mess a bit. And thankfully only 18 % of Americans support the BLM orgs mission to defund the police https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/poli...599232001/ , and that includes 81 % of black Americans who don't want to defund them, but if you go against defund the police on AF, you are branded as not caring about blacks people's issues. See the issue here? No one can respectfully disagree anymore. Like I posted before, if this thread was meant for only posting negative news about conservatives and anything else is unacceptable, then let's tip the hat to Minimalist and rename the thread "Damned conservatives".

I stole the Q Anon comparison from comedian Andrew Schulz, so credit to him. The culture is clowning the BLM org big time right now. What's more likely? Q-Anon's claims that Bill Clinton got it on with minors, or the BLM orgs insinuation that the police framed Jussie Smollett? They're both pretty bad, I would say. Obviously it's not a one to one comparison saying they are the exact same thing, but the BLM org still continuing to back Smollett as being set up is a massive mistake optically, and shows that leadership is incapable of separating emotion and blind racist allegiance from the evidence at hand.
