    Misrepresenting articles is also a bitch move, as is starting topics that are CR-bound in DT. I tend to agree that drive-by negging posts that aren't clear troll posts or just completely shitty (dropping racial or homophobic slurs, for example), is lame. Hence my reply. Harrison is free to neg me back (as are you or others obviously).

    Yes, I'm sure Altria would just love to buy a company that just paid $40 M to settle a lawsuit alleging that Juul was targeting teen users in North Carolina. That multiple other states have also filed lawsuits alleging similar behavior in other states has no bearing I am sure. IT'S JUST THE MEEDYA!

    Negged for misrepresenting an article that belongs in CR anyway. The article states that Chinese coal plants are largely responsible for manufacturing of solar panels but contains no analysis (at least not beyond paywall) of cost-benefit over life-time of panel (which, yes, should also include disposal of panels). Even if this analysis is true for solar panels (which again, is not at all clear from the article), that is not true for EVs or wind. A recent white paper on EV's, for examples, concludes that they are a net-positive relative to internal combustion engines. You can certainly argue assumptions, but at least the analysis is laid out.

    If you're looking for something new, I hear that Jim Rome said some funny things about aggy recently, you could search for that and post it.

    You've got to be fucking kidding me.

    Exactly. Hey Texas Dems, please help the party of personal responsibility be responsible! We just need, like, half a bootstrap, not even a full one!

    Yes. Was really hoping to be the first to Comic Book Guy "Well actually, this was a continuity error in the 10th panel..." but was of course beaten by a duck. Furk.

    Well gee, now that Tarp has confirmed the move, I guess the only suspense in this thread is if @Mitch Cumsteen will neg posts that quote articles with the word-that-shall-not-be-named.
  10. Serak The Preparer
    Well he's sure as shit not running back his words.
  11. Serak The Preparer
    Yeah, well that's what you mom said about my love-making, so take that!

    At least we got to a lot of words to say "Ok, I was wrong and I admit it." I think that's progress?

    You are still not answering the question. You replied to a poster pointing out that conservative politicians and media are now changing their tune on vaccinations. ("Corporate overlords and staring down their base bearing the brunt of delta"). You replied say "Ben Shapiro hasn't changed his mind!". I agree, Ben hasn't. Do you disagree with the actual point that conservative media and news have largely been anti-vax?

    Yeah, all the white police officers are super fucking qualified and if anything, they spend too much time policing their own. Their only weakness is that sometimes they just work too hard.

    I get that being a big-brained centrist is part of your shtick, but are you suggesting that majority of conservative news outlets and politicians have NOT consistently downplayed the usefulness, effectiveness, or need for COVID-19 vaccines? I do agree that Shapiro has been pretty consistent and supported vaccines but point out an exception does not counter the general argument.

    What the hell are you talking about? You are semi-self-aware and you voted for Trump in 2020. You say it's not a winner but as soon as you (and many many more like you) see that (R) next to the name, you are pulling the proverbial lever.

    What the fuck does "the government insisting these disseminators of misinformation being completely deplatformed" mean? They are flagging posts, the same thing you or I could do. Facebook can respond the exact same way to my action vs the government's action. There is no regulation. There is no law. You language of "insistence" is intentionally hyperbolic so there is not even a reasonable response.

    If you're just going to ignore questions asked to you or answer with stupid shit this is not the message board for you.

    Wait, are you saying @GRHorn took both Willie and Earl, ummm, inside his body? I mean, I'm not judging, just doesn't seem to fit with his rugged persona.
  21. Serak The Preparer
    It'd not even censorship. The government is not forcing Facebook to take anything down. They are flagging shit as disinformation, which is not unique to any government task force. You can do this right now: So how is this blurring the line?
  22. Serak The Preparer
    Do you think Facebook is NOT a private company? That sure seems to be the inference from your question but would love to confirm.
  23. Serak The Preparer
    I'm not sure if you are familiar with Ohio State and it's awful shitty fans. The experience many Longhorn fans had in 2005 definitely affected perceptions of the state as a whole, right or wrong.

    I could see misrember but did @RayDog post much in CR? He certainly pimped his fringe science in DT and nerdz (and equivalent on prior boards) but I don't recall much of a CR presence.

    @JNip sucks but "your people" talk is not cool. I don't think you've called people nips in a while, so that's good, but let's keep moving forward.
