Takeaway: Two people both trying to entrap each other say they want the other to do something illegal and/or immoral, and they both agree with their fingers crossed behind their backs.
Yeah I see that now, my mistake.
Alternate headline suggestion: Fake agent provocatuers caught offering fake bribes to fake protestors causes very real embarrassment to fake journalists.
Wow, they totally cucked O’Keefe!
The money is likely as fake as James O’Keefe. He likes to get people to do as he wishes with the promise of money and later disappear. He did exactly that to Planned Parenthood.
So this part…
“Multiple accusations of sexual misconduct”
What’s the point of pushing a personal attack? It’s one thing to say he’s trying to incite riots, but that part? It’s irrelevant.
If you don’t like what others do (like break logical fallacies all the time), don’t do it yourself.
The sad thing is that I don’t think it’s that complicated.
I think the “logic” (and I use that term Very loosely) runs along the lines of “well, so what if that one guy is a POS provocateur trying to manipulate people, there are tons of other REAL people really trying to do this. I know because FucksNEWS said so!”.
Voter fraud is a real and rampant problem, because they were told so (not because it really is, and especially not because everyone other than Fox is telling them so).
Illegal immigrants are really all about murder and rape, and stealing their jobz, because tRump told 'em so…
you get where I’m going with this.
Seems relevant.
In a time where conservatives have their hands on all of the levers of power, won’t O’Keefe basically be out of a job? I mean, if Congress is willing to repeal and not replace the ACA with impunity, do they still need the assistance of this third-rate propagandist?
It’s the whole of his character and he pushed his unwanted advances as a PART OF WHAT HE WAS HIRED TO DO.
Why would they stop putting money into ratfucking?
Sexual misconduct is not some weird, off color quirk… it’s a crime. It’s establishes his general character.
In Trumpland, the only crimes that matter are Immigration violations.
Even then, it’s only a crime for the immigrant themselves. The rich bastards underpaying undocumented workers and periodically importing mail order brides…they’re just fine.
That’s why you take money second step, not last Abort mission any time.
Just wait.
My basic rule is to completely distrust anyone using “veritas” for anything. They always turn out be the worst kind of deceptive liar.
Charcoal can’t melt steel. All history from the iron age onwards is a liberal myth!
