It is at this point where rational people understand that you are hopeless. You see: these are things you assume to be true, without in any way knowing that you are actually correct.

You aren't correct. In fact, you couldn't be more wrong.

You and your ideas are a threat to democracy. (that is actually true. The best part is: my statement will always be true, regardless of what you want to believe).


In your haste to insult people and reassure yourself how smart and awesome you are, you should actually read what people post. Modern "news" outlets are nothing more than political and ideological proxies trying to masquerading as legitimate sources of truth and " the free press". The longer that individuals, such as yourself, attack, bully and try to delegitimize others that don't agree and keep living in your bubble, the longer these organizations get to keep your bottomless glass of kool-aid full.

Not only was there no proof, but with Trump's win it appeared the American people cared more about the content of the leaks itself rather than if Russia was involved or not. Hillary already made the Russian arguement during debates, and how effective was that arguement was for her?

What, you mean besides the evidence linking the hacks to Russia-backed groups like Fancy Bear and Cozy Bear, and Guccifer 2.0 obviously being cover for a group rather than the Romanian individual he was supposed to be? There was proof -- just because you ignore it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

You're right in that American voters seemed to be more interested in the content of the leaks than the possibility that they were part of an influence campaign, but that doesn't mean they were right to think that way. Yes, what was leaked matters -- but when there's strong signs that the leaks are the result of an authoritarian government trying to skew the vote in its favor, you should be voting for the candidate affected by the leaks as a matter of principle.

The sad bit about IGBT's diatribe: it's lifted seemingly verbatim from Milo and Russia-backed websites. He just went to his favorite right-wing or pro-Russia blog and took whatever elaborate conspiracy theory they offered as gospel, without thinking for himself or questioning the source.

Here's the difference between a CNN/NYT/WaPo leak and the sites you visit, IGBT: the conventional news outlets are actually doing investigative journalism. They're not just floating an idea and declaring it true because they 'feel' it's true. They really do have inside sources, and they double-check with other known-good sources to make sure information is accurate. If they aren't certain about something, they don't pretend they have all the answers.

To put it another way: if news sites like the NYT are the kids who dutifully read the whole novel for a school book report, someone like Milo is the kid who only reads the first chapter and hopes he can bluff his way through the rest of his presentation. One digs deep for the actual information, the other chooses speculation because it's easy.

Actually doing investigative journalism? You're giving them too much credit. CNN didn't do jack shit when they published the bullshit golden shower hit piece. Sometimes the media do have actual sources that provide information and substantiation, but it's far from clear how much they actually make sure the information is accurate.

The rest was just insults and gibberish. Not uncommon though.

Funny how you accuse Trump supporters with believing crazy conspiracy theories multiple times. When you yourself are doing the same. There is no proof that Russia aided Trump with wikileaks, or anything else you said. That's what you call a theory about a conspiracy. Or conspiracy theory. Same as you accused them of. More hypocrisy, which again is not uncommon.

I'm not denying some people from the right believe some crazy stuff, because they do. Just pointing out you're doing the same thing.

You are obviously terribly misinformed, but this is par for the course among many Trump supporters. They get their information from Trump himself, a delusional fool at best - degenerate liar at worst, or bizarre alt-right blogs and Twitter feeds.

The Russian involvement in the hacking, releasing of information via wikileaks and using propaganda - all with the aim of aiding Trump - is not conspiracy. This has been the position of the intelligence agencies, and members of government, for a while now. What the investigations are for are to determine if there was any knowledge or collusion from Trump and his team in the Russian's activities, as well as the extent of Russia's interference. Claiming there was Trump/Russia collusion might be bordering on conspiracy at this point, as those investigations are still on-going. With all the lies about discussions between Trump's team and Russian contacts, there is a lot of smoke that may indicate a fire there though. Trump certainly seems nervous as he brings new nonsensical conspiracy theories forward on his twitter week in and out.

Your post is another example of how poorly informed and down the rabbit hole Trump supporters often are. You picked Putin's guy. Well done, Comrade.

Was doing the mail run and in the car listening to Spicer's press conference. Amazing gymnastics of why when Trump was praising Wikileaks during the campaign it was a gift to mankind and now it's a whole different thing. Such hypocrites.

Remember when Assange said he would turn himself in to U.S. authorities if Obama granted Manning clemency? How'd that work out.....

Maybe Russia had more work for him to be done. If he loses his asylum in the embassy, taking bets on whether or not he somehow ends up in Russia. :D

I can't boast that I am so smart as certain newbie here but at least I am not such a hapless pathetic eunuch like this big mouth loser - https://forums.anandtech.com/threads/the-hunt-for-illegals-is-on.2499736/page-14#post-38759163

Folded like a lowlife bitch, again as usual. :D

Your mindset seems to be that you somehow win if you can't understand anything being said, such as this sentence for example. And thus you must be sick of all this winning despite objectively low edu/iq. That rather perfectly explains the situation with conservatives.

Sometimes the media do have actual sources that provide information and substantiation, but it's far from clear how much they actually make sure the information is accurate.

CNN investigated the sources of that doc, which turned out to be somewhat credible, which is probably why it was included in an intel brief. They also investigated the history of similar kompromat used by KGB, etc. Just because you & friend don't know much doesn't mean there's not much to know.

That didn't exactly involve a lot of heavy lifting, to be sure, and I still wonder about outlets who published that without being able to corroborate all of it. At least some of it is accurate, so it's not a disaster. However, CNN has definitely done some actual investigation beyond that... certainly an infinite amount more than Breitbart does. Fox isn't exactly known for digging deep, either.

It's a common strategy of the liar to proclaim that everyone lies. This is what the conservatives movement has come down to.

Put up or STFU, bitch.

What part of let show the readers the evidences that you do not understand? So far, you have none, nada, zip, nothing to provide. Just like your brain.

Keep telling others how smart you are, mister "4rd grade english". <everyone is pointing at agent fail troll and laughing at his pathetic eunuch self...the forum idiot in chief>

This is a fitting demonstration of the pure trash that conservatism resorts to recruiting these days. Knows nothing about computers yet posting here regardless, ie mentally impotent yet endlessly mouthy. Figures that when there's a critical mass of abject stupid, it becomes difficult to get any of the above average edu/iq crowd to join.

Again, what part of let show the readers the evidences that you do not understand? No one is interested in your pathetic rants, let show the evidences, quotes, posts, threads, something. Anything at all?

Keep ranting and showing your true color, the yellow of a lowlife lying bitch. Ugly can be fix, stupid is forever for you. Shame and humiliation being diss out from me to you, yet you are unable to prodive anything to fight back. So sad to be such a pathetic eunuch, only good at running the lying mouth. Tst..tst..tst...

<dear the readers, watch for agent fail troll pathetic rant again... about nothing.. just like another rerun of Jerry Springer..LOL>

As mentioned it's a trivial fact that OS root access allows direct use of the hw to bypass apps, and known exploits of this sort are routinely patched which provides some idea of their pervasiveness. Folks of minimal intellect and background would understand this, but it's a trivial fact that doesn't apply to your sort and your entire comment history is what results.

Scroll up and read what I asked, moron. Goodness, this dumb ass is even more stupid than a dog. Can't even comprehensive simple commands. Even dogs can do that.

Blah, blah, and more blah. Five seconds search on Google = being so smart per you. :D

Because the alt-left/progressives are the bastions of truth? The left seems to do a lot a labeling people liars. I guess if the left gets mad they will pull out their unverified dossier of how bigly the conservatives lie.

Yes, it's an objective reality that people who understand how computers work represent factual truth here far better than you & svnla types. In fact it's bizarre that this is even a question given even you're smart enough to see how degenerate your peers are.

Not terribly inclined to repeat myself given this is what invariably results from explaining anything to conservatives:

Oh, I read what you said. That prompted my response. Repeating what you said earlier does nothing to erase your ignorance of such things.

You're confused: you simply think that because I recognize you for a fool, that I simply did not read what you said. It is the content of what you said that classified you as a fool. Understand?

lol--you think you don't live in a bubble. This is precious.

Hey booboo the stupid dog, still can't find your way out even with simple command, eh? What a shame. I know you are not too bright but I did not know you are this stupid. What a pity.

If you are still lost, just say "PLEASE DADDY" and I will quote the post again. You are welcome.
