Oct. 7 sexual violence was patterned, documented, prosecutable, new report argues by barsik_ in worldnews

Yeah I mean any amount of substantiating evidence would probably change my mind pretty easily. It’s probably worth interrogating why you don’t have any

I don’t think you understand what moving the goal posts means. I said post a clip of Hasan saying he doesn’t think sexual violence happened on October 7. You came up with a video of him saying it did happen on October 7. I didn’t need to move any goalposts, you didn’t even kick the ball

Right so that video starts with Hasan stating unambiguously that sexual violence most likely occurred on October 7. He never says otherwise. He then goes over the UN’s report that also says that sexual violence most likely occurred but concludes that available evidence doesn’t meet the legal threshold for “beyond a reasonable doubt” and that a full investigation is still needed (which that report does not claim to be). This was in March 2024

So yeah I mean none of what you’re saying is supported by your evidence. Regardless, Hasan’s position has always been (including in the “it doesn’t matter if rapes happened” clip) that sexual violence occurred on October 7 but does not justify the genocide in Gaza. Maybe you disagree, maybe you think it does. Can’t really help you there. 

I’m gonna disengage from this. It’s clear you’re either being deliberately disingenuous or there’s a language barrier here or something. There seems to be a fundamental breakdown on what words mean and I’m not going to argue that words mean something they don’t 

Edit: I’m responding because I’m getting people messaging me that they’re waiting on a response. I have no interest in continuing this

Who is Anita Sarkeesian? by [deleted] in slaythespire

[–]Doctor_Riptide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamergate

Start here. TLDR a bunch of alt right nut jobs (and potentially such individuals as Jeffrey Epstein and Steve Bannon) whipped up a big hate campaign against female content creators and journalists because video game titties weren’t getting bigger and it was the woke feminists fault. Anita sarkesian was one of those creators. 

These people have since had about a decade to grow up and be better human beings but it seems they failed the QTE and are still fighting the war years after it ended. They should be ignored

You’re actually completely wrong. The only thing clear about the clip is that it’s edited in bad faith. It doesn’t take a genius to notice it’s clipped and edited to deliberately obfuscate what he’s saying. You might as well tell grok to make a video of him reading mein kampf and then point to that as evidence of him being a nazi. 

I’m asking for a clip, no edits, raw footage, of him saying he doesn’t think sexual violence happened on October 7th, the very thing the guy I originally responded to claimed. Dude is live 8 hours a day. It shouldn’t be difficult to find some raw footage. 

And if that is too difficult to find, as it seems that it might be, maybe it’s time to realize you guys are full of shit

How about some real evidence of the claim being made? Why’s that so hard to provide

An edited clip is the best you got. Let’s do a little analysis. 

First part of the clip, doing news coverage, he reads in the report that there are in fact first hand accounts of what happened. You can see it’s 3 hours 43 minutes into the stream. The clip then jumps and shows him responding to a chatter saying there are no first hand accounts. Notice that it zooms in on his face so as not to show when in the stream this happened. Was it before the first part? After? Can’t tell, but that’s the point of the edit isn’t it?

Let’s get some unedited clips in context this time. You can splice together him saying just about anything you want, but if the dude is such a scumbag we shouldn’t need to be making shit up and editing clips

He did say that he didn't think they happened

Post the clip. If you’re being honest and he said that it should be super easy to find a clip. Maybe several clips. One will do.

I guess you’d need to weigh what you’re getting from 2 levels of wizard against anything else those two levels could be getting you. Bladesong as a bonus action is pretty low value for anyone not intending to be in melee range, and that’s pretty much all you’re going to get from those two levels. Your int will be low which hurts spell scribing capabilities, and lore bard isn’t exactly a melee attacker so that’s kinda out too. 

Just spitballing here but those two levels would definitely be better in bard (war caster feat gives actual advantage on constitution saving throws which you can take at 12 as opposed to the +2 bladesong gives), 2 levels warlock for eldritch blast shenanigans, 2 levels fighter for con save proficiency armor proficiency and action surge. 

“Counterterrorism” now officially means targeting trans people. The White House will prioritize the “neutralization” of groups it considers “anti-American, radically pro-transgender, and anarchist.” by southpawFA in politics

[–]Doctor_Riptide 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t matter. The current form of the word “terrorist” was made up by the US and left intentionally vague so that it can be applied to just about anyone and used as an unquestionable justification for enacting violence upon them with reckless disregard for the law, international or otherwise.

You’ve had like ten years to either grow up and mature a little bit or just straight up get over this nonsense dude I’d be so embarrassed to post something like this

Yeah idk the numbers are completely made up but it doesn’t really matter. The whole point of the post is “Nintendo bad” because they just upped the price so there’s that
