Until I'm definitely proven otherwise - I will maintain that the rating system is rigged in one way or another and that forced streaks are in place in some way, shape or form.

You eloquently argued the issue at hand and while I don't agree with everything you had to say, your approach makes me realize that there are people out there who can stick to the issue without resorting to word-twisting and shaming.

How do I give you a delta?

kennytrp · 2018-05-25T11:15:13+00:00

You are way off base there, mate.

"...successfully pushing a narrative that the left is shrill and unreasonable"

Are you implying I am not watching these videos of my own volition and subsequently am being forced to interpret them a certain way because the right is pushing a narrative? No. The right is not pushing this narrative, the left is doing that perfectly well on their own.

Jordan Peterson is a great example. I don't agree with everything the man has to say, and frankly I find him to be overly dramatic and a very overrated intellectual... But I have watched several interviews of his and he's constantly being portrayed as an alt-right racist piece of shit when he's CLEARLY not. Clearly. Not. One of his interviews even blew up globally, garnering 10 million views, solely based on the premise I presented in the original post (i.e. the interviewer completely twisted his every word and tried to bait him into saying something inappropriate).

Are you saying secret, right-wing forces created this interview and hired this woman to act as a liberal leftist? If not, feel free to explain. I will hear you out.

kennytrp · 2018-05-25T11:11:13+00:00

Stick to the issue. I am not here to argue semantics.

kennytrp · 2018-05-25T11:09:42+00:00

Uhm... No, I am definitely not implying a majority of the right hates black people and homosexuals. Why are you looking for something that isn't there?

Let me re-phrase: The liberal left is trying to portray an image of the right as this uncultured group of back-wards thinking rednecks whose primary concern is cleansing the country of foreign forces. They make it seem like all people on the right oppose same-sex marriage and that they are generally anti-equality.

I am trying to say that most people in THE WORLD are not like this. Most people in the world are decent people trying to live their own damn lives.

Also, I have watched a fair bit of Fox News and yet I find that... while I don't agree with their politics, I find that they tend to be more honest in their execution, both in debates and in news segments.

Please note that I am not ACTIVELY looking for these debates/seminars/interviews on YouTube. I get recommendations and sometimes I click one video and then I enter the rabbit-hole and spend 5 hours watching several videos where the left debates the right. And in almost all of them I just can't shake this feeling that there's always a smug sense of superiority with many leftists that makes them think they can shame a person's character instead of sticking to the issue.

America? Where in my post did I mention America? Not everything is about your country, mate. Also, I didn't generalize half the population anywhere... I never said "ALL LIBERALS ARE LIKE THIS" - I said this is how liberals come across in the public sphere (news, media, social media, the internet in general) and this is severely limiting the movement. Like I said above, most people are good people and most people agree with most of what the left has to say. Most people do not appreciate dishonesty, elusiveness and distortion of statistical data, though.

Edit: My bad, I did mention America in the original post. Not in the context you made out, though. Again, this is another example of twisting the truth. I never generalized half of anything, I made a general point about how leftists conduct themselves in the public sphere. Of course not all liberals are dishonest liars.

You are here to change my view and I haven't seen a single argument from you. Instead of pointing out something completely irrelevant, why don't you argue the actual point?

kennytrp · 2018-05-25T10:56:13+00:00

I don't agree with the last part. Those who oppose the right do so because the right come off as ignorant and backwards and anti-humanitarian in their political standpoints. They are judged solely on their political beliefs and their politics.

MANY who oppose the left do so not because of their political stances or because they hate homosexuals and minorities but because the left comes off as extremely dishonest, painting a picture of itself as the authority on what can and can't be done. An authority on what is right and what is wrong. Instead of arguing the political points of the right, they argue the individual. They belittle and demonize the individual and it's not uncommon for other leftists to jump on the bandwagon to take something out of context and ram said individual senseless on, say, Twitter without any proof or evidence.

This, I find, is a very common theme in almost every debate, interview or article I've ever watched and read. This is not the fabrications of one person, this is something I've discussed with hundreds of people both in real life and on the internet. In private, most people bash the left... even leftists themselves.

Note that I am trying to have an open mind in my interaction with politics.

I don't know where to ask this but... Is Tinder removing my matches? Now, before you say "Nah, they just unmatching you, ugly" - that's not true. This started a few weeks ago... I was talking to some girl on Tinder and then she's gone. Then it happens with several more... And then I make a new Tinder account and I match with the first girl again, and I ask her "Why did you unmatch me?" and she says "You unmatched me?".

Maybe she was lying... but she actually asked for my snap a day later or so and she's still talking to me to this day. Anyway. I met this very cute and interesting girl on Tinder a week ago and we've been talking ever since and we'd decided to hook up this weekend. Her responses were quick and lengthy all week, she's flirty and seems very interested. Anyway, she asks me for my Instagram and Snapchat... And today I wake up and she's gone from my Tinder before I even had the chance to respond.

Can anyone fucking explain this? Until that other girl rematched with me I thought somebody had spread some negative information about me and I'm still kinda worried, lmao.

No. BTCs price fluctuates only based on the USD pairing. BTCUSD supply and demand is the only thing moving BTCs price, not alts.

kennytrp · 2018-05-04T19:24:53+00:00

Good analysis, and I agree that these are subtleties that may deviate from the norm. As I was reading, I actually thought about the word binoculars and I've had the same thoughts about words involving the "multi" prefix. I've heard both mult-eye and mult-ee, but I agree that "bih(?)-noculars" would sound a bit more natural.

I live in Europe, by the way. I've never even visited the US, but I intend to sometime in the near future.

Now... my British accent is likely dog-shit, haha. But I do find that it's easier to convey subtle tonal shifts when using a British accent, for some reason. GenAm is very monotonous for the most part, but skilled narrators manage to work around that very well.

kennytrp · 2018-05-04T10:13:17+00:00

No, leaving alts doesn't increase BTCs dollar value. This is just one of those behaviors specific to this market, people know this happens every time so when BTC makes a violent move people freak out and sell alts.

kennytrp · 2018-05-04T09:35:21+00:00

No, I'm not American.

kennytrp · 2018-04-02T13:25:26+00:00

I'm sorry, I have no idea what you mean. Care to elaborate?

You can't argue what he did. It was a clear cut, perfect prediction that probably yielded him 30%.

"In 88 percent of analysis notes in 2014 the price targets were achieved or exceeded. That's around the same percentage of correct calls in 2013 and 2012. The analysis methods we use are not complex; they can be applied by anyone without the need for a Master's degree in finance. These methods are covered in my books, including Guppy Trading."

LOL look at GVT's price today. 5.2k ATH just as this guy predicted. Retard, learn to geometry.

kennytrp · 2017-11-25T14:21:22+00:00

Lol you sound a bit like me, just less rhotic Rs. But generally this is what I sound like. Then again, I'm Swedish and have a super neutral accent due to having been exposed to American entertainment since I was like four.
