There are people out there who think that is serious journalism. Obviously they don't know who Jena Friedman is or what "Adult Swim" means. | |

I've seen her before, but wouldn't have immediately known it was satire if not for the fact it was uploaded by Adult Swim. I know who they are. | |

I really want to give them the benefit of doubt and say: it's plausible that they're actually worried that a too-progressive candidate on the left could hand Trump the election, should he be a free man in 2020. But it's really hard to not see their silly little dance around the completely fabricated Omar controversy - what jew would even disagree. It's not a conspiracy that there's a pro-israel lobby influencing american politics. To call that anti-semitism with a straight face... it's hard not to see that as anything as their corporate sponsors talking. I'm sure billionaires across the country wake up in a cold sweat over the prospect of AOC 2024. | |

Being born on Somalia, I'm guessing her first language was not English, so she gets some slack, but she didn't do that great of a job there. | |

You call it not a great job, I call it unprecedented. Did you know that Trump's special representative for Venezuela was defending the US sponsored coup in guatemala that put a dictator into power that later committed mass murder? I didn't know that. Did you know he supported a coup attempt against Hugo Chavez... the current president of Venezuela. That seems relevant if you're the "special representative for venezuela." | |

The format isn't great, it lends itself to grand standing and the reduction of nuanced situations into yes or no questions-- but even given that, she didn't get him on anything. She asserted what she thought he thought, then didn't let him answer. | |

As for her being an antisemite according to CNN, at least they're consistent: having anything critical to say about anything Islamic and you're an islamophobe, have anything negative to say about Israel and you're an antisemite. | |

They're not consistent. To be consistent, they would have to say that any kind of critisism, whether justified or not, is hate speech. | |

That is honestly a concern. I don't understand their logic. I'm trying not to be too cynical here... I'll put down my tinfoil hat and imagine they are promoting corporate sock-puppet democrats because they think they'll have the funds to win against Trump in 2020. I think they are under the wrong impression that a relevant number of current Trump supporters will cross the aisle if you put up a candidate that's center enough. But I think you'll lose way more voters to non-votes if you put up Klobuchar or Harris than you'll win over trump-servatives. | |

I really don't think anyone cares about that outside of The_Donald. The US is closing in on the 50th mass shooting of 2019, and those aren't even newsworthy anymore. Why would some actor nobody has ever heard of, claiming he got an ouchie by some meanies be in any way relevant? | |

You can keep me up to date if any more information comes out. Right now I don't think it's credible that anyone would be dumb enough to hire the two blackest looking black dudes to fake a racially motivated attack against another black guy with no witnesses. Here is where my bias comes in: I think Trump supporters are dumb enough to fabricate that story. I don't think anyone else would be dumb enough to act it out, but in the absence of facts I simply don't care one way or the other. | |

The big story about the nuclear thing is that this is supposed to go through congress. The Trump administration tried to circumvent congress and ignored ethics advisors. This is yet another huge deal that only Trumps closest circle and a hostile foreign power know about. | |

Not really, no. The differences in concentration of fissile material are significant... like years significant... like you need totally different levels and scales of nuclear enrichment that is going to be visible by satellite. Like you are not going from power plant to nuclear bomb in less than a decade, and there's going to be some really easy to notice nuclear blast testing going on during those final years. | |

Well I'm hardly a nuclear expert, but I was under the impression that you could at least make a dirty bomb if you have nuclear waste. Perhaps not a sophisticated thermonuclear device, but still a nuclear weapon. | |

I think they announced a town hall with Bernie. Both CNN and NBC were surprisingly supportive of the Bernie nomination. Calling him a front runner - which... d'uh, but for MSM that's a startling concession. | |

It's kinda obvious that stuff like this would start to pop up. There's a cost to the adoption of the "believe every victim" meme. It incentivizes false accusations and fabrications. | |
02-21-2019 12:43 PM

This isn't the start. I remember at least a year ago some woman faking an email and claiming it as hate speech. It's a consequence of the left's obsession with labelling everyone as either a victim or an oppressor. | |

I don't think there is such a thing as a 'believe every victim' meme. If there were,anyone could accuse you of anything and you'd go straight to jail to await a trial. I think what's happened is it's become apparent that simply dismissing victims' reports when it suits your needs doesn't work anyone. | |

My point is that when you swing in the direction of giving more credence to accusers it's not without costs. I am not even saying that we've over corrected. The status quo did seem to be intolerable, and I'm not sure where the balance point is. When being a "survivor" is accompanied by social credits, you will incentivize people to both fabricate assaults and stretch the definition of assault. | |

I agree there's scope for unscrupulous people to abuse others' trust, and that there's always going to be a balancing act between accepting some number of false positives and wrongly rejecting some number of true positives. | |

What site? Can you find it? What credible news source reported on this as anything other than "actor claims." Every single pro-trump outlet is presenting this as if it was a major story. Maybe you can show me otherwise. I really don't think it was a major story at all up until claims surfaced that he faked it. | |

I disagree. If the other side is routinely coming up with dumb shit, at some point it's better to just close your mind to it than to keep thinking 'oh really? So and so runs a child porn ring out of a pizza joint?' | |

Fair enough. I don't read T_D and I was seeing stories about the alleged assault, and then the possibility it was faked, and then today his arrest over the past few weeks from the AP. Maybe you just weren't seeing these stories in credible outlets, but they were there. | |
