Screenshots are faked all the time. If you're making a claim that something showed up on a site, post the link always. Screenshots are optional, verification is not.

You are accusing me of posting fake screenshots.

Fuck you.

GasTheYoungTurks says

No. I'm pointing out screenshots are easily faked. Why not include the link? What do you think links are for?

There is so much propaganda on the net, it's tiresome and irritating that people don't provide links. I do.

The media lies about what was in the Mueller Report for years, but the never provided a quote from it, a link to it, or page numbers. Because they were lying about the contents

Right now, just to piss you off.

During the amount of time you spent typing up your little tantrum, you could have looked up the tweet your fucking self.

Once again, I am perplexed by how you can function in life.

And this whining about no link comes from the guy who stated that any source can be found by 10-word snippet from it. (Which actually seems to be true.)

EVERYBODY has to look it up, because dipshits are too fucking dumb, and incompetent to include a link.

I'm tired of people being fucking lazy.

Reeeeeeeee!

If people are trying to share information, SHARE information.

You just troll and scream and shout, Eric - nothing you've ever said was useful, or interesting, so there's no reason to provide any links. I just ignore your nonsense.

He did. But you still reeeeeed at him. And now you are reeeeeeeing at me. It's getting boring.

It is A FUCKING TWEET! If you want to look for it sooo fucking bad, why is it my job to it for you?

GasTheYoungTurks says

It is A FUCKING TWEET! If you want to look for it sooo fucking bad, why is it my job to it for you?

It's your job to accurately convey information. I do this and I cite sources.

Here's an example:

https://americandissident.substack.com/p/why-i-think-the-united-states-overthrew

That's my article. You'll find it's all hyperlinked. Do you know why I went through that trouble? So anybody else reading it doesn't have to go through that trouble. It's because I want to convince people I'm correct.

30 years ago, we invented hyperlinks. I remember being confused as to why "news" would never include fucking hyperlinks. NY Times, LA Times, didn't, nobody did.

You know why? They try to create dependency on their claims but they lie all the time. Allow people to verify. It's not a hard habit to get into.

richwicks says

If people are trying to share information, SHARE information.

First you say it is fake. Now you insist we share shit you declare to be fake.

richwicks says

If your job to accurately convey information. I do this when I cite sources.

What FUCKING PART of 'It is A FUCKING TWEET!' do you seem to not understand?

Amazing. Truly. How do you hold down a job?

GasTheYoungTurks says

First you say it is fake.

NO. I'm not saying it's fake.

I'm saying you should include links. Don't make people go through hoops to verify things.

I know "it's easy" to look stuff up, but it's a LOT easier if you don't even have to do that.

Take the Mueller Report, I have heard hundreds of people claim it proves this or that, but they never will include a link, because they didn't check themselves. They're not lying, they're ignorant, and they trust sources that ARE lying to them.

If the Mueller Report proves X, for example, it's pretty easy to point to that page and include the quote, so it can be independently verified - but if it DOESN'T prove X, you have to read the entire 700 pages of bullshit, and carefully, to discover it's not true.

Assume everything is false. This is the correct way to go about it. Just assume it's false. All the tools are there to make it TRIVIAL for you to prove it's true. I'm just asking you to make use of them.

richwicks says

I'm saying you should include links.

It is a fucking Tweet!
It is a fucking Tweet!
It is a fucking Tweet!

richwicks says

NO. I'm not saying it's fake.

richwicks says

Assume everything is false.

Which is it? You contradict yourself. And you can't distinguish between a Tweet vs an article.

Again: I don't see how you can function in life.

GasTheYoungTurks says

I'm not contradicting myself.

I'm sick and tired of people posting SCREENSHOTS to a fucking URL, and forcing everybody that wants to verify it to go through the PAIN IN THE ASS to look it up, when the URL is RIGHT FUCKING THERE, when they post it.

I assume it's false, that's not to say it's false, I didn't check, and I won't check any longer. I'm sick of this. People who produce good work, do the TINY AMOUNT OF EFFORT to demonstrate they do. For example:


original link

See that? Here's all the links to his sources:

https://www.corbettreport.com/travelreset/

Our "news" won't do this, EVER, and now everybody is in this TERRIBLE HABIT, and I'm fucking tired of it.

It's a FUCKING HORRIBLE HABIT.

So fucking what. That ain't a tweet.

You still don't know the difference.

GasTheYoungTurks says

GasTheYoungTurks says

I'm just asking you to please post fucking links for godsakes.

richwicks says

Ever... Fart in a mud puddle?

The people who mostly write in capitals don;t go to the links provided or say the sources aren't to be believed.

Therefore, screenshots and unsubstantiated comments and statements carry the same weight with those that complain,

So why go through the effort??

richwicks says

I'm just asking you to please post fucking links for godsakes.

Oh fuck NO.

I am not your Google bitch.

GOOGLE?!

HAHAHA. Do you realize how sparse that is now?

These search engines are superior to it now, in my opinion:

Yandex
Swiss Cows
Result Hunter
Qwant

Google is like the last place I go to at this point. Google isn't even good for TECHNICAL information at this point.

Poison ivy is getting worse with climate change

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Warmer temperatures along with higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are making poison ivy grow faster, bigger, and more potent.

Poison ivy is a carbon dioxide loving plant. It thrives at high levels of the greenhouse gas. So as CO2 levels increase, so does the growth of poison ivy.

As a result of climate change, this plant stands to gain greatly. In a six-year study conducted at Duke University, scientists raised carbon dioxide levels in a forest plot to 570 ppm, which is roughly the concentration expected at the end of the 21st century. As a result of high greenhouse gas levels, poison ivy increased its biomass by 67 percent more than poison ivy that did not have elevated carbon dioxide levels.

In Malaysia pedestrians accidentally struck on a roadway by a motorist is a rare occurrence if never happens. If it does it's always the clueless law breaking pedestrians fault. The only time it's not, is if it were an intentional strike, at which the motorist left the blacktop to intentionally run them over.

The impetus to safely cross the street is purely on the pedestrians. They aren't allowed to wander, dawttle, take their time, or assume the motorist sees them. You can only cross at designated cross walks, that even goes for rural roads. You can get a ticket for walking on the street, or crossing at a random spot.

I wish we were more like that. I do remember when J Walking was a serious thing, you didn't hear about many pedestrian strikes then. It was just as serious as a motorist moving violation that required paying the fine or going to court.

The El Nino is supposedly coming this winter and every article about its effects on CA says that it's impossible to predict whether there will be more rain, less rain or the average amount of rain....

But they know for sure that Manhattan will be 3 ft unddrwater by 2015....

But they know for sure that Manhattan will be 3 ft underwater by 2015....

You missed it by 15 years, it was supposed to be 2000. Was starting to figure out I was scammed by 2005, knew I was by 2010.

They may as well said that 1+1=5, at least to me. Most people don't remember the predictions - so thank god for Al Gore and An Inconvenient Truth. I often get the people still onboard to watch that, from 2007, and look up all the glaciers and so on. I really should spend some time taking that entire movie apart.

https://slaynews.com/news/renowned-arctic-scientist-debunks-climate-crisis-warns-global-cooling-coming/

A world-renowned Arctic scientist has spoken out to debunk the globalist “climate crisis” narrative and warn the public that the Earth is actually heading for a period of “global cooling.”

Leading polar expert Andrey Fedotov of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences declared that “warming is about to end” and the planet is about to enter an “ice age.”

“We will inevitably transition to an unfavorable cold,” he warned, according to the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS).

According to Fedotov, the director of the Limnological Institute of the RAS, the period of “unfavorable cold” will begin around 2030.
