    if i wanted to be lied to for 1hr 20 mins like i was an idiot I would watch the GOP convention.

    But how do you know its a lie if you haven't watched it, how could someone possibly have the required basic critical thinking and common sense to know such a video is a bunch of far-flung nonsense?

    If you haven't watched a video on how everything of Trump's making is actually a giant secret suspiciously vague conspiracy how can you truly know? /s

    Your posts are becoming incoherent and rambly.

    LOL odd you cant resign yourself to the face he had nothing to do with it you need him/Qanaon whoever to be involved so you can jut use your usual rubbish
    But I have already explained to you why Alex Jones and his bull**** farm are relevant here. I've already pointed out that you lied and said they weren't involved.

    If someone works for a bull**** farm like Info Wars, then they can't be a good, honest journalist. It's that simple.

    You however seem to buy into Info Wars and their propganda, so you don't see why rational people reach this conclusion.

    You even latched on to the antisemite crap for good measure
    But antisemites have been clinging onto this video as it is compatible with their conspiracy theories.
    To me, and most rational people, it's a red flag.
    Are you denying this?

    You have previously claimed that all of these antisemites are fake and are plants to discredit the movie...

    Then you would have to think for yourself and point out what you find is BS
    I don't watch it for the same reason I don't watch UFO videos and flat earth videos.
    It's obvious nonsense about a nonsense theory from people who spout nonsense.

    ?

    Your being really obnoxious
    I told you Alex Jones didnt have any input content or monetary

    srcoll to the end of the video look at the credits
    point out where infowars or Alex Jones are mentioned
    Hes an egomaniac do you think he would have his name left out

    I'm being obnoxious because I keep pointing out how you are misrepresenting me.
    That's understandably frustrating.

    Like now you are accusing me of saying Alex Jones had creative or financial input. I never claimed any such thing.

    I have explained to you many times why he and his bull**** farm are relevant. You've ignore that each time like you've been dodging most points.
    You also lied and said they weren't involved for some reason.

    If you are getting annoyed, maybe try to stop rushing to misrepresent me and actually engage with my points.

    Do you have a persecution complex ? I never said that

    Only relevant in your head because they had no input to the film in question

    Your just being a dishonest weasel

    They are relevant because Alex Jones and his Info Wars are bull**** merchants.
    An honest, competent reporter and investigator would not work for them because they are scumbag propagandists.
    The lady you are defending worked for them.
    Therefore we know that she is not an honest or competent reporter.

    "Reporter", "investigative journalist", "documentary film-maker"

    Like the "doctor" on the AJ show

    At this stage I'm not sure what he's arguing.
    Whether she's the only actual honest and competent person who worked for Alex Jones and Info Wars.
    Or Alex Jones and Info Wars are as valid and trustworthy as the New York Times.

    Both are pretty silly positions.

    An excellent and verbose rebuttal.
    You sure got me alright.
    Good job.

    My points remain.
    This film is obvious bull**** about a bull**** theory by a bull**** artist.
    There's too many red flags for rational people to take it seriously.

    But the gullible seem to be eating it up and throwing money at her.
    Maybe I'm in the wrong business.

    It can be very lucrative, some of these "documentaries" garner millions of views. Jones is a multi-millionaire. Where there's money, there will always be parasites.

    As Enno and other conspiracy theorists said, nothing wrong with getting paid for your work.

    Even if your work is knowingly spreading bull****...

    Yup. Insults instead of supporting your accusations.

    Pretty typical.

    No. Bull**** isn't necessarily exclusively lying. There's many ways to bull**** including twisting the truth with spin.

    Again you are demanding answers to random, poorly written questions, yet still refuse to answer anything but to you.
    Again this is pretty typical.

    In the case of these types of conspiracy videos: they'll often use few facts or pieces of info and then carefully frame, spin and distort that to fit a particular narrative, always leaving out key context, and relying heavily on tenuous links. It's highly dishonest stuff.

    Once you know the tricks and techniques it's fairly easy to produce anything, at this stage I could make a killer e.g. 9/11 conspiracy video, but unfortunately I have some sort of conscience.

    Or they make the claims veiled enough that they can say one thing, but also have complete deniability about it if it's convenient.

    For Example: "Is the Deep State controlled by the Jews?"

    They're not actually saying the Jews are behind it. They;re just posing the question.
    And on the plus side, you can now appeal to antisemites without openly saying anything antisemitic.

    You mean like CNN and the rest of the "normal media" as you like call them




    CNN Political Analyst Joe Lockhart criticized Nick Sandmann after the Covington Catholic graduate gave his speech during the Republican National Convention Tuesday night, calling him “a snot-nosed entitled kid from Kentucky.”

    https://dailycaller.com/2020/08/25/cnn-analyst-attacks-nick-sandmann/

    They cant help themselves

    The Washington Post on Friday agreed to settle a monster $250 million lawsuit filed by Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann over its botched coverage of his 2019 encounter with a Native American elder.
    It’s the teen’s second win in a whopping $800 million defamation battle against a number of news outlets including the Washington Post, CNN, ABC, CBS, The Guardian, The Hill and NBC.

    https://nypost.com/2020/07/24/washington-post-settles-250m-suit-with-covington-teen-nick-sandmann/

    So you have "normal media" trying to destroy a teenagers life
    Scumbags as you guys like to say



    Covering up for rapists and paedophiles scumbags
    Are all who work for them scumbags ?

    Care to guess what they earn Cooper/Cuomo/Madow etc

    Just a couple of from a long list

    CNN is a news outlet, like Fox news, etc.

    These news channels all sit at various points on a spectrum of media quality, some are higher, more accountable, more credible than others

    You are referring to a conspiracy video made by an Infowars pundit on Youtube, something that sits at the worst end of that spectrum (is quite possibly right off it). If you have difficulty discerning the difference then you may be the target audience for that type of Youtube conspiracy video.

    My take-away is: don't watch trashy news like CNN or Fox. And certainly stay away from ultra trashy YT conspiracy videos by ex-models on Infowars that get insto-banned by major platforms for being hot garbage and borderline hate speech
