Elections Democrat Party dirty tricks exposed

[Witchhunt]

The point here is that Taibbi's work is not (and has never been, from the beginning of his career, by his own admission) trustworthy, if you're looking for reality-based journalism. He's trying to entertain people by weaving kind of simplistic morality plays and spy-thriller stuff with a mix of fact, hyperbolic presentation, and wild speculation. It has a place in society, I guess (not my thing, obviously), but it shouldn't be confused for a real understanding of the stakes of politics or real news. Even (or especially) if he's telling partisans what they want to hear.

So, the court documents don’t say what they say because of Taibbi’s right up.

Got it.

You should try just reading what's written instead of imposing your petty concerns onto it in a way that hardens your skull.

Every discussion with you hacks seems to go:

JVS: (Reasonable post).
Hack: "So you're saying (something that JVS didn't say)?"
JVS: No. I said (reasonable thing).
Hack: "OK, so you think (something you didn't say). Got it."

There's no communication possible when you guys can't think beyond just getting angry when GOP talking points are questioned.

What court documents? What crime do you think was committed?

None even alleged at this point. But political parties wanting to win elections = shocking dirty tricks if you're trying to sell the idea of following politics as being in a spy thriller.

Never said any laws were broken. It just shows how much Democrats actually support democracy, contrary the campaigning on saving it..

Yeah, my petty concerns. You hand wave this nasty behavior away, tying to talk down to people and smugly feigning superiority..

Your politics are outdated..

HVS (after the debate) : Biden is fine, never better. It's simply right wing propaganda that he's falling apart and won't be able to make it to the finish line.
random member: Holy shit this mfer trolling
person who was tagged by HVS: Holy shit this mfer is certifiably batshit
me: Holy shit I hope this weirdo is getting paid to look this stupid

Days before Russia invaded The Ukraine in 2022, Taibbi was on Twitter calling claims that a Russian invasion was imminent information warfare, baseless, embarrassingly incorrect, and a big PR win for Putin. I guess Russia was just massing troops right on Ukraine's border for no reason? How'd those claims work out?

Taibbi apologized and said he got it completely wrong afterward.

Matt Taibbi Apologizes for Insisting Russia Wouldn’t Invade Ukraine: ‘When You’re Wrong, You’re Wrong’

"My mistake was ... being so fixated on Western misbehavior that I didn’t bother to take this possibility seriously enough," Taibbi says

“Part of news and even commentary is admitting mistakes, and though I always made sure when discussing the subject to note Vladimir Putin could still invade Ukraine, I have to admit, I didn’t see this happening. Some old colleagues I trust, including some Putin-critical Russians, didn’t see it, either, but in many cases they just didn’t want to believe it, for reasons that are more understandable from their perspective,” Tabbi wrote.

“My mistake was more like reverse chauvinism, being so fixated on Western misbehavior that I didn’t bother to take this possibility seriously enough. To readers who trust me not to make those misjudgments, I’m sorry,” he continued. “Obviously, Putin’s invasion will have horrific consequences for years to come and massively destabilize the world.”

“I fear there will be more to say soon, but I’ll leave it at that for today. When you’re wrong, you’re wrong, and I was wrong about this,” Taibbi concluded.

I'm not sure how much props he deserves for that. How could he not admit it he was wrong? I realize many people would rather die than admit they're wrong, and he's at least better than them, but this is also about as clear cut as it gets. Taibbi said they wouldn't invade; they invaded.

I mean I legit think he didn't expect it was going to happen.
