Nothing you say has any connection to reality. At least you are always good for a laugh or two. That comment actually made me laugh out loud. In any contest to determine who is least connected to reality on this forum there would undoubtedly be a few outstanding contenders. However, you would likely be odds on to win. I wouldn't bet against you for sure!
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

As for what's coming to Cornwall over the next few generations I think my children will be continuing my laughter for me.

Find me stuff. Edited by Stirlingsays (21 Sep 2018 5.11pm) The same Spectator that’s owned by the Telegraph? Tim Pool I don’t know about, but here’s an article exaggerating a situation and making a claim disputed by the police. You can argue the toss about these specifics. My point is, we should view all media with suspicion. The more political they are, the more suspicion I view them with.

You haven't produced anything here that legitimatizes not trusting these sources. I told you. I don't trust the MSM. The alternative ones I trust more than others haven't been knocked at all by these weak points you made against them.. You misrepresent a Spectator article in a silly way and then for some reason state that because Tim Pool disputed an event with Swedish police that somehow means we should doubt him. I know about this incident being a follower of his channel. Didn't you read the article you linked to? Edited by Stirlingsays (21 Sep 2018 6.46pm)

But that’s not my point. We’re in an era of trusting certain media absolutely, and refuting others absolutely. That can’t be right. As the Tim Pool clip shows, the same situation can be interpreted very differently. Who is to say Tim is totally correct in his interpretation?

They followed him out.....It's viewable in the video....Looks pretty plain to me....of course if you want to think they just happened to be going in the same direction. Regardless.....as I said, there isn't really any reason to doubt the few sources that I do actually give credence too. I may differ with Pool on some of his politics but I've found him to be very fair.....I can recommend him to you.

But let others believe it about their media choices too eg lefties & the guardian.

I'm laughing at examples from a particular source.....My links picked out the ridiculousness of them. If you think Tim Pool's reporting is comparable you are welcome to that view.....It'll be something else to laugh at. As Elon Musk correctly pointed out....some media sources are better than others.

I don't believe either is 'useful' outside of the theoretical. Word play is semantics. All words are conceptual. Of course not everything written in the Guardian is nonsense by a long mark.....However, some of it is....This is my 'interpretation'. There is no requirement to agree......Some people in Africa still practice witchcraft, some people don't. Choice is paramount to both. I make the choice to laugh at witchcraft for obvious reasons...Similarly I make the choice to laugh at this Guardian article. Edited by Stirlingsays (21 Sep 2018 8.39pm)
