War Room Lounge V48: Everybody's a little racist, except me

[Jack V Savage]

Holy crap, seeing "Manuel Ferrara" made me think of and look up Miguel Ferrar. And apparently that dude died in 2017.

It's hard to believe now, but I was a big Teri Hatcher fan at one time, and the role I remember him best for is her abusive bf in a Tales From the Crypt episode.

BTW, fun fact: His mom was Rosemary Clooney (and George Clooney was his first cousin).

I have no problem believing that now.

I'll always remember him for his chilling, Oscar-winning performance as Carl Quigley in the Best Picture-nominated 1994 film Blank Check.

Jesus Christ Polish... I get the Eagles hopes were dashed this winter but goddamn man.

Also, can't tell if sarcasm or legit your reaction.

When Wentz gets hurt again, you'll have no one to actually win the playoff games for you.

Better hope your Day Walker doesn't turn to ash in the sun this year as you don't have a backup to win you the playoffs.

You guys know what "the serpatine art" means?

Oh please, the art of deception.
The craft of delusion.

Yeah, that wasn't a comment on Weld specifically as on how right-wingers try to play gullible lefties and how stupid True Progressives are.



That's disappointing. Probably Sirota's influence.

What’s fucked is that to win the Republican nomination you still need the KKK/Nazi vote.

My spirit animal is a Jekyll/Hyde combination of Geoffrey Zakarian and Manuel Ferrara

I had to look up Manuel Ferrara and I’m glad I didn’t do it on any of my work devices lmao

Again, @Anung Un Rama, your spidey senses should be tingling when you find yourself in the company of morans.

The disclosure of the Mueller report's findings specifically debunked Greenwald, yet, because an indictment was not imminent (as it never was), he took it as a vindication of his position that there was no collusion and that the investigation was a hoax.

Greenwald's conduct there is a representation of the world kind of internet-argument-type dishonesty: misrepresenting a claim (there was interference and collusion) to the point that, when the misrepresented conclusion (direct evidence will implicate Trump and lead to his indictment) is not met, an adverse claim is treated as proven (there was no interference and no collusion).

I was with Greenwald when he was saying "this is overblown as an international matter in light of the US's past and ongoing crimes." But when he went full "the investigation is a hoax," he became a hack.

Outside of obstruction, which was the result of the ridiculous collusion investigation, the investigation was a waste relative to its objectives.
Sure it uncovered tangential corruption, but it didn't prove Trump collusion -- and given the FBI resources for 19? months, I think its safe to say it didn't happen. And former Deputy Director of the CIA, Mike Morell, a big Hillary supporter, knew this before the investigation even started. And the NSA would have known of this as well. Couple that with the mass hysteria and propaganda surrounding the investigation and I don't know how anybody can take it seriously (the collusion aspect). I don't see how Greenwald was debunked.

Trump's pick for the UN seems to be actually retarded.

- Original UN pick withdrew because it was discovered that she illegally hired an immigrant housekeeper
- Anti-climate change wife of coal mining exec
- Donated somewhere between $1-5 million to Trump's campaign
- No relevant experience before that
- Got a cushy job as Canadian ambassador for her efforts
- Since she got the post, she spent more working days in the states than at the actual embassy
ffs, if you said her bio was a work of satire, people would say it was too on the nose.

Yeah, Trump had no choice but to illegally obstruct the investigation into collusion because it never should have been investigated in the first place because he was super innocent. That's the ticket.

Sure it uncovered tangential corruption, but it didn't prove Trump collusion -- and given the FBI resources for 19? months, I think its safe to say it didn't happen.

For some politicians, accusations from crazy bloggers are proof, and for others, detailed evidence can be easily dismissed. This is bias at work.

Hermits/recluses, who live largely in solitude, generally don´t give much of a shit about how they look.

People usually "groom" themselves for others, rather than for their own sake.

The problems occur, of course, when these "hermits" then go outside in public, and are stunned by other people's responses at how they look and carry themselves.

It's interesting seeing collage kids/hipsters that have never really done anything outside of the urban program show up in Alaska and try to look the part.

 

[waiguoren]

I think you're being incredibly disingenuous here

Nope.

You know most of those people are obnoxious and stupid (not Noam).

Nope.

I especially don't think that any normal person can fail to appreciate that Dore and Tracey are morons who are manipulated into essentially arguing for the right.

Nope.

You're supporting them because their function is to divide the left and because many of them have also played defense for Trump.

"Supporting them"? I oppose most of their views, unlike you. Also unlike you, I can get along well with people who see the world differently from me.

@Essie, the general point is OK, though. The Bernie (or Gabbard) or bust types are, indeed, terrible people, but they aren't close to the majority of Bernie fans, and a lot of them are right-wing trolls.

I see that you still haven't learned to see the world outside of a paranoid left-wing/right-wing dichotomy. I strongly recommend that you work on this.

Sure, wai. You just make ridiculous defenses of Trump here because that's where the evidence leads you.

I like to debunk bad arguments, whether they are pro-Trump or anti-Trump. I noticed you left out the latter. Which "ridiculous defenses" are you referring to?

Also, are you breaking? This level of hysteria here is worse than I remember.

That haircut. Woof



Best beards.


EDIT:
I need some fucking advice. My hair on top is thinning. Am a self admitted overweight dude (but I don't have the fat guy fat at the back of my head, have a double chin but my chin and neck are very obviously separate) and I can grow a full beard.

Should I just say fuck it and do the full blown John Bernthal as Frank Castle buzz cut or skinhead it? Living in Utah methinks keeping SOME hair is worth it and I've been doing essentially a longer side high and tight for 2 years now but thinking maybe say fuck it and go the Castle buzz/FMJ basic training buzz.
