All those words just to admit the fact you are trolling.
We can have a discussion without posting clickbait conspiracy theory garbage.
Yes, we have to be careful with the media.
You just proved how easy it is to fall for their agenda.
I agree with all of this Bro. Curtis. The only thing I have a problem with these days is the constant need to classify everything as an act of terror or assume it is Islamic terrorism.
We are willfully allowing them to win the propaganda war with this stuff.
I won't be a party to it.
Curtis, I don't have a problem with it being true if it is. But you know sometimes how you just get one of those feelings? This is one of those times for me.
Even if he were a recent convert, does that immediately mean that's why he did what he did? That's the impression it seems like is trying to be made so that they could say they now have their 9/11.
That's funny because the last time you accused me of lying (one of the many tactics you use when you dig yourself a whole like this) a simple dictionary/thesaurus proved me right and you wrong.
Instead of eating the crow you deserved you snuck away to avoid owning up to it.
Unfortunately, you are not making progress.
Don't get mad at me because your thread got picked to shreds and then you tried to play it off with some excuse that you are just trying to facilitate discussion.
Stop helping the enemy win the propaganda war with this nonsense.
This kind of news reporting preys on those that have a predetermined mindset on a particular issue.
They essentially manufacture news that they know people want to hear and hope that confirmation bias will protect them from scrutiny.
Unfortunately, as we can see in this thread...it works all to well.
You can redirect your anger at me all you want but you posted this thread and several other people besides me have called you on the source.
What you take away from this discussion is up to you.
You can learn from it and move on or you can continue to be mad at me and try to attack me with all of these trumped up accusations of lying.
Does anybody not named Carpro think that I lie about others post and have any examples of this?
He says it a lot but the examples aren't there.
Actually, AntiViral is a blog in the Kinja family of blogs. Their task is to debunk fake email, YouTube, and Twitter stories that blow up and go "viral". I'll sometimes check out other Kinja blogs like LifeHacker, Gizmodo, and IO9 blogs. (Can be accessed by the 3 bar menu in the upper left hand of the AntiViral page.
Yeah, parent organization is Gawker media.
I love IO9 and Deadspin.
The Gawker blogs have done some brilliant long form investigative journalism over the years, the Penn State coverage was fantastic.
They also excel in snark and sarcasm but they can buckle down when they need to.
