White supremacists involved in the violence of BLM demonstrations

Wow, is it even possible for you to talk to people without an attitude?

You can talk to me without an attitude anytime you want to. I have no problem with that.


Is the "attitude" you are referring to my propensity for asking people to back up their assertions?

Is the "attitude" you are referring to my propensity for calling out lame comments?

I asked you to back up your claim that Twitter is a good source of news.

Did you do that in your original post? No, other than asserting that it's better than Facebook.

Did you do that in your latest post? No. All you did was complain about my "attitude".

Why the distraction? The local police already stated that it was white supremacists who were responsible.
Have they? The link I posted, in post 4 of this thread, suggested it was not so obvious. Do you have a link that resolves this?

Riiight. Let's all get our unbiased True (as compared to Fake) news from Twitter!

Where else can you get completely unfiltered information from people on the ground?

TBH, you can get your information from 'independent reporters', but Antifa and BLM as posting under their accounts as well so it's not like you're not getting some first party feedback. Sure, they don't show the part where they're beating on some poor sap or starting a fire, but you can certainly see they're at the same place as some other clip and put it together.

I don't even care what the news outlets say as rarely do they ever accurately present the case accurately. Whether you talk about George Floyd, Jacob Blake, or Bre. Taylor you're going to get nothing but crap from the media, and nearly all of their presented 'context' was false. If they get it wrong 3x in a row I don't think there is a need to consider them for a 4th or 5th time, lol.

As far as Floyd, Twitter was the first place the cam footage and arrest records leaked. For Blake, it was the first place where all his repeated history of domestic abuse was leaked, and it was also where Taylor's involvement in drug trafficking was pointed out. Meanwhile, the media went full steam portraying these criminals as innocents. Sure, I'm not happy when people die for stupid reasons, but in most cases these people provoked the response they received either directly or indirectly. Yet, these are the martyrs for the cause... I doubt most of us would want to hang with any of these d-bags in real life, lol.

You disbelieve the information that was in the first link posted. Why should I find another link for you to disbelieve? How many posted links will it take to convince you? Five? Ten? I'll not waste my time.

Many people in the Middle East, Southeast Asia and East Asia (especially Japan), for example.


National Socialist Japanese Workers' Party (国家社会主義日本労働者党, Kokka Shakaishugi Nippon Rōdōsha-Tō) is a small neo-Nazi party in Japan. It is headed by Kazunari Yamada, who maintains a website and blog which includes praise for Adolf Hitler and the September 11 attacks.[2] Pictures of Yamada, a Holocaust-denier, posing with Cabinet minister Sanae Takaichi and LDP policy research chief Tomomi Inada were discovered on the website and became a source of controversy; both have denied support for the party.[2]

I guess you are right.

If I'm understanding you, you think Twitter is a good source of information because it is "completely unfiltered information from people on the ground".

Did the first twitter feed about Floyd tell the entire story? Did the first Tweets about Breana Taylor tell a complete story?

Once you heard about the Floyd incident, did you tune your feeds to "#Floyd" and just read one after another?

I'm not defending the police but, how many people in a predominately black neighborhood are going to tweet things complimentary of the police?

Using Twitter or Facebook or any social media for accurate information is just plain stupid.

That's because the link in the first post was not supported by the link I gave in the 4th, which was from NBC, i.e. a well-respected source.
