    legit inquiry? 

    Typo...my comment should have read: " Neat. Let's NOT respond to legitimate inquiry and valid questions and go with non-sequitur statements and straw-man arguments.

     

    Legit inquiry? Yes! If we've learnt anything by recent historical events (ie: 9/11, the subsequent war on terror, etc..), it's that it's very dangerous to sacrifice our critical faculties to the whims and opinions of the "official" fact checkers, the ruling political influencers of society or the court of popular opinion. 

     

    Those who question the official explanations for the coronavirus outbreak aren't rejecting the science of epidemiology or virology. That the virus CAN be found in and/or transmitted by both domesticated and wild animals doesn't necessitate that it is the ONLY way that humans can get the virus. It's documented fact that the Winnipeg level-4 NML lab has for some time been growing certain strains of the coronavirus for scientific research. Such research has been used to develop bio-weapons programs.

     

    This isn't to say that this specific outbreak is the result of nefarious actions, but such an scenario does exist in the realm of possibility. Attempting to refute this possibility with nothing but a label of "conspiracy theory"  might appease the simple minds of the ignorant sheeple, but it's of little value when attempting to uncover or explain the truth. 

     

    Doubt nothing, question everything!

    Neat. Lets blow off the scientific gains made by epidemiology and virology and go with cool/scary stuff that raises "questions" :lol:

    Neat. Let's respond to legitimate inquiry and valid questions and go with non-sequitur statements and straw-man arguments :sadno:

    I’ve said before on this forum that I’m a loyalist to the crown.

     

    Would Canada be more open to a head of state that actually live in Canada? Or does our future lie in being a republic? Considering our history and the pure ceremonial nature of presidents in other countries that have prime-ministers, I would think this is a viable option.

     

    I would also be inclined to say that their first born child in Canada would be the rightful heir, not “King Archie”.

     

    Believe me, I realize many of you will think this is absolutely silly, no need to point it out.

    Fake news

    2nd Amendmnet

    I don't believe it

    Trump 2020

     

    There is nothing misleading here.   Far right/Alt right/Neo Nazi members were arrested for literally threatening and planning an attack against peaceful protestors.  Facts taken out of context are bad, but literally creating a false narrative to ignore the real danger is ignorance at its highest.

     

    As for "fine piece of journalism" none of it is linked to Trump at all, until he tweeted that the Dems were coming after their guns and 2nd amendment rights...

    Your comments actually proves my point that every word said or written must understood in the context in which they're used. That you boil down my points into 4 labels/talking points actually says more about your ideology and worldview than mine.

     

    "Fake news" can be a completely made up story, a story with facts taken out of context, or stories that omit certain facts. If we're going to be able to tell the difference, a two-word label isn't going to help us. Facts in context I believe, facts out of context I reject.

     

    As for Trump2020....I wouldn't vote for Trump - your point is moot.

    Fine people in fact.  On both sides :bigblush:

    Absolutely agree with you there. They're wonderful people.

     

    As for Trump's comment....context reveals motives. In this case, Trump was praising the African American gentleman because of his actions against some idiots dressed up in KKK outfits at one of Trump's rallies. These idiots were there, not in support of Trump but to create a disturbance that was sure to be picked up by the MSM and then used to push the false narrative that Trump and his supporters are racist.

     

    Trump was trying to draw attention to the fact that many in the African American community are some of his most loyal supporters. A fact the MSM and their useful idiots don't care to highlight as it doesn't fit their narrative. The context necessitated a positive racial identification of this "wonderful" African American.

     

    Trump's comments aren't an example of his innate racial bigotry - its a nothing burger!

    "neo-Nazi hate group" seems redundant. 

     

    I'm glad he found more friends down south and got arrested there, but this is a very scary trend in Canada. CSIS has far right groups as our biggest terror threat in Canada, and its growing. An interesting tidbit for those who like to focus on Muslims, just fyi. 

    I have some good friends who are Christians, Muslims, Sikh and Hindus. Wonderful people. Although some worldviews are more susceptible to violence and hate, there's lunatics and terrorists in every religion that believe violence, hate and subjugation of unbelievers is the way of godliness. 

     

    Unfortunately for those of us in the western world, the separation of the secular vs sacred has bred ignorance of the underlying psychology and philosophy of many worldviews. Knowledge of exoteric beliefs does not necessitate an understanding of the esoteric.  Such ignorance has  put us at a disadvantage and left us vulnerable to be manipulated by the government, MSM and other power structures of society.

    And of course.  Without batting an eye, the US president gives us a gem that's bound to age well.

     

    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-guns-rally/alleged-neo-nazis-caught-with-assault-rifle-charged-ahead-of-virginia-gun-rally-idUSKBN1ZF2B3

    What part of this "fine" piece of journalism links Trump to these Nazi wackos? 

     

    Overall, the article sets up yet another false equivalency by the MSM to push their agenda and brainwash the unsuspecting and naive.  It's another fine example of the processes of the Hegelian Dialectic that stokes the fires of conflict and chaos in order to establish a new "order."

     

    The author fails to mention the fact that the actions and worldview of these parasitical lunatics are in direct odds with the worldview and actions of the peace abiding pro-gun organizations and activists that are exercising their constitutional right to march. Failing to highlight this important fact creates a false equivalency in the minds of readers and a inaccurate and misleading link between Neo-Nazi terrorists and the law-abiding gun-rights activists.

     

    Facts taken out of context become the greatest of lies and deception. Failure to draw these critically important distinctions is not only intellectually dishonest, but is also the epitome of ignorance.

    You stated an error of commission, not a lie of commission. Errors of commission or omission are most commonly referred to in accounting and bookkeeping. I get that you want to somehow justify being gullible enough to trust an outlet as farcical and fallible as the gateway pundit.

    It's understandable that you're looking for technicalities that will enable you to climb out of the illogical hole you dug, but really??? Gotta be intellectually honest to have a constructive conversation my friend.

     

    A wise man once said never argue ignorance with an ignorant person as they'll only beat you down with experience. I'll take his advice and leave you to your ignorance.

    Error of commission: These types of errors occur due to the negligence of book-keeper, clerk or accountant. As errors of commission are often caused due to the mistake committed by the clerk, they are also called as clerical errors.

     

    Most MSM outlets aren't clerical or bookkeeping companies, but keep on using these terms that barely relate to the subject matter.

    Ever hear of a lie of omission vs commission? I guess not. Better stick to commenting on hockey until you get your logic skills under control....

    And all of those media outlets have made false claims as well.

    EVERY news outlet, including every MSM outlet have made "false claims" before. But one has to determine whether such false claims are the result of an error of omission or error of commission. Just like your comment, for now I trust your comment was an error of commission, rather than omission.

    "We report the truth - and leave the Russia-Collusion fairytale to the Conspiracy Media".

     

    This publication was sued for falsely implicating an innocent person in the 2017 Las Vegas shooting, and falsely identified a Michigan man as the driver of the vehicle that killed the woman during the Charlottesville riots.

    Great source.

    Yet another genetic fallacy?

    It would be pointless to target a plane whether American or Iranian when they wanted no casualties. I mean firing 17 missiles into Iraq and all the victims end up being Iranian? with no American or Iraqi casualties? That would cause a big stir if they find out it was an iranian missile hitting a passenger plane full of Iranians. Who knows what happened, but you also cant link the missile directly with the plane going down just because of the time frame unless there is undeniable evidence that the missile hit the plane. 

    True, could be a coincidental accident.....or a tragic miscalculation that can be conveniently excused with plausible deniability.

    You are just showing how ignorant you are by suggesting a link between Sunnis and Shias.

     

    All the Islamic terrorists groups you show in the map of US who have actually done anything are SUNNI muslim... Iran is Shia.  Sunnis hate Shias... in Afghanistan the Sunni Taliban/ISIS regularly massacre Shias.

     

    Conflating Sunni Terrorists with Shias is just stupid... they have zero connection.  There have been no overt terrorist acts in the US linked to Shias.

     

    Sunni Muslims originate from Saudi Arabia, not Iran. 

     

    Sunnis are Al Quaeda/ISIS/Taliban/etc... the ones who attack the US in 911 and all over Europe.  That fundamentalist Sunni group originates in Saudi Arabia.

     

    Shias are Hezbollah/Iran.  They are fighting Al Quaeda/ISIS/Taliban.  They are also fighting Israel... for good reason, Israel regularly invades/bombs Lebanon where Hezbollah is based and where Shias are the largest ethnic group.  Iran supports Syrian government because of the Alawite Shia population there who were being massacred by ISIS Syrians.  Yeah, the Syrian government is a nasty bunch, but so are the Rebels which are mostly either ISIS or Al Quaeda.

    You're showing how ignorant you are of the topic at hand by employing a red-herring argument to misrepresent my post.  The clear intent of my post was to show the length of terrorist arm of Iran and the war they conduct through their proxies like Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah etc (as can be seen on the attached maps). My post was not in any way conflating Shias with Sunni's or suggesting that ALL Islamic terrorist groups are affiliated or associated with Iran.

    Your reading comprehension isn't the greatest is it

     

    How many nations has Iran invaded?  How many sovereign borders has Iran crossed in aggression.  For every single incident you posted, some are in house issues inside Iran, most are issues caused by guerrilla factions from various nations outside of Iran but including Iranians.  Why don't you list the same timeline of offences caused by the US or Israel.

     

    Because by your list, there are ZERO borders crossed by Iran, there are ZERO nations attacked by Iran.  When you ask someone to delve deep and do homework, ensure you're talking to someone who hasn't.  

    Perhaps you had a little trouble with reading, comprehension and logic as well? With all due respect, I'd suggest you go back and carefully reread my post, resisting the urge to respond until you understand the points I'm making and until you brush up on your understanding of modern warfare tactics employed by Islamic Republic of Iran and other Radical Jihadists. 

     

    When was the last time the US or Israel blew up/attacked an Iranian place of worship? or an Iranian embassy? Iranian shopping mall? Iranian community center?

     

    The kindergarten map you presented (and subsequent argument about the US presence) is really part of a larger straw-man argument based in ignorance and intellectual dishonesty. What you conveniently fail to mention is that most of those locations exist at the request and/or permission of the individual sovereign states. They exist mainly to deter Iranian/Radical Jihadi aggression.

    America has always been the instigator. The 1953 coup in order to turn Iran into a puppet state is the reason relations between the two countries have been terrible for such a long time.

     

    This idea that America is the protagonist of the world is ridiculous and frankly, delusional.

     

     

    Nice opinion piece
