Yes obviously that is hypocritical.

Dude, you were garbage long before 2016.

I mean, i doubt you actually said that at any point before 2016. But, anywho.

It is funny how people I used to talk to before all the sudden view you as vile the moment they realize politically they have different ideals than you.

Before 2016 you could sit there with peaf, Steiner, and etc and joke around with se7enthrust no problem. Before 2016 me and Suprak could sit here and give gravy dating advice as gravy texted me like every day 20 times a day. Then 2016 hits and omg Corrik is so fucking terrible. Fuck him. He is scum of the earth.

It's not hard to see where that change happened in opinion.

Wrong.

As I've said NUMEROUS times in the past five years: prominent right-wing voices on this board (aside from Red Sox, who I never noticed before 2015) were trolling assholes LONG before they started defining their identities by their right-wing credentials. You, Ulti, Sephy, Smuffin, Vlado, Wang behaved in a shitty fashion long before now (in your/Ulti's cases, just look at how you play mafia). It's just that at some point along the way, you all coalesced into these right-wing monsters. So either right-wing ideology is inherently designed to appeal to self-centered, sociopathic jerks...or self-centered, sociopathic jerks realized that parroting the most abhorrent of right-wing viewpoints was the easiest way to rile people up since video game-themed trolling is immature nowadays.

Weird how I have been on this board for like 10-15 years, yet only become a "trolling asshole, self-centered, etc" when I came out in support of Trump in 2016. Well, I'll be!

Okay. Wang wasn't told he jumped to a conclusion based on what he read, and you did not jump to a conclusion that things not ruled lynchings are indeed lynchings guaranteed.

Okay.

Sorry, I am just in lala land apparently since you say that this assessment is wrong. My bad, bro.

1. decent
2. right-winger

pick one

Chang is more accurate than he wants to be in this post. The reason you can't get a decent right-winger on this forum is because by disagreeing with your opinions and being right-wing, many of you cannot realize having different opinions than your own doesn't make someone not decent.

It's partly the fault of the thread being mostly an echo chamber, but anyone who disagrees with you ideologically is not a decent person in many of your minds.

So, Chang is right on his assessment in the minds of many here.

Anyone right of center is not a decent person in your mindset.

so let me get this straight. it's perfectly reasonable to assume that a random drunk man who stole a taser might be so violent as to hold up a car, steal it, and drive it into a family of four and kill them but believing that 5 black people found dead in a position that replicates lynching is likely to be actual lynching is jumping to conclusions.

It's weird how you're allowed to assume whatever you want about situations but no one who holds a different view than you is!

It is perfectly reasonable to assume a violent offender of the flee from police COULD cause injury to the innocent public. Yes.

Here is the problem with many of you in this group.

1. You jump on someone for jumping to a conclusion based on what they read.
2. When someone says you are also jumping to a conclusion regarding something in the OPPOSITE of what has been said in another scenario. You...
3. Get defensive and try to change someone's words to defend your jumping to a conclusion, while you just jumped on someone for jumping to a conclusion.

Meaning...

4. You didn't refute jumping to a conclusion after jumping on someone else for having done so. You tried to justify why it is okay when you do it instead of the person you jumped on for it.

Like wtf?

I assume the damage intended was done. Run the irresponsible claim of saying it was "intentional poisoning" up front without any investigation, get it to circulate among "all live matters" types and the alt-right, then come out later with the investigation results "actually it wasn't intentional at all"

Let the lie circulate and go viral and try to set a favorable narrative before the truth can come out so it's smothered by the time it does

Honestly, even if reported appropriately, right wing propagandists still would have reported it as such because "what's the chances this only happens when the 3 cops come in for a shake". Doesn't matter really. Propagandists will propaganda regardless of details.

tell me corrik do you genuinely believe there is any chance in hell that black people are committing suicide by hanging themselves in trees to replicate lynchings.

Let me ask you this.

If a person commits suicide by hanging from a tree. You are suicidal and thinking about commiting suicide and see that in the news directly prior. COULD that influence your decision on how you commit suicide?

I am not saying it is not a lynching or whatever. I said we should wait for details to come out, like autopsies. You are jumping to a very racially charged view right off the bat, that may be ultimately correct or not. While Wang thought he was getting accurate news possibly, (which it was just not intent-wise), some of you are jumping to the opposite of initial reports off the bat because it is oddly... The news you want it to be.

Just wait and see. That's a very large assumption to make.

It depends what you are looking for.

The person who said NeoGAF is just resetera with a creep in charge is pretty wrong.

1. Evilore was cleared of any wrongdoing. The girl who claimed what he did later dated him. When more information came out regarding it, she recanted her claim. (NeoGAFs owner). The ResetERA owner banned a girl for pointing out that members of ResetERA had created a discord for sharing pictures of naked underage anime girls and talking about how they wanted to get with underage girls. He banned the girl who reported it, they found some posts from one of the users she reported that was about screwing a 13 year old girl who was a tad learning challenged when he was 20 and deleted them all and tried to brush it under the rug. It was only uncovered by a website that aggregates bans from ResetEra (dunno if they still do but ResetERA is known for banning at a ridiculous rate). So, which has a creepy owner is a weird debate to be sure.

2. ResetERA is a very far left forum. They ban anyone who is Republican, and even democrats they deem as too moderate, if you are brave enough to express your opinion. On the political spectrum of things.

3. NeoGAF if very centered. You will get some extreme far right views there politically, but you will get just as many far left and center of the spectrum views also. The debate there can seem very wild at times due to how much of the spectrum is tolerated. You can get shock value at some of the opinions being so different than your own, but as long as you are not racist, wishing death on someone, or getting very hostile with insults or such, you can debate what you want to. You won't get an echo chamber though. NeoGAF also separates politics to its own forum to keep politics out of gaming and off topic stuff for those who wish to not be bother by politics. ResetERA just has gaming and off topic. There is bleed through into gaming of political ideas as far as moderating at times.

4. ResetERA is much faster than NeoGAF and aggregates news much faster. It is a good site to read for gaming news or even news in general, though you have to remember off topic news will be biased extremely to the left. They also do a relatively good job of sparsing out rumors as true or false and uncovering things before announced. They also have a sprinkled amount of developers on the website and insiders. NeoGAF cannot compete on this, though they are now at least a website that has a decent amount of traffic again now.

Just figure out which you prefer and go from there.

In past seasons you've been totally wrong about Kaep "just not being good enough" to be in the Top 64 QBs in the league given he literally led a team to a Super Bowl compared to some of the QBs making rosters and starts in that timeframe.

This season though is super weird where QB supply is higher than QB demand which might be a first in like 15+ years so in a league where Cam Newton is still unsigned it's a lot more believable that Kaep would remain without a team this year because Newton even with injury concerns has to be the obvious top of the board pick and I'm stunned he wasn't signed to a team immediately when he became available.

But I mean this isn't Goodell's decision at all so it's an empty statement really.

I mean, I am not wrong. Kaepernick led a dreadful, terrible SF team before getting benched for Blaine Gabbert. Then wanted top dollar as a starter or nothing. When he finally came around to accepting a possible backup spot, he burned bridges with owners considering signing him like in Baltimore where his girlfriend on social media called the Baltimore owner a racist or something.

The thing everyone should remember about this topic or any topic where people talk about investments or gambling is that people are much more likely to talk when they are right and making money than when they are wrong and losing money. You should not feel bad if it feels like you are not making money and other people are. Probably, others' gains are not as big as they seem because they aren't talking as much about their losses as their gains. I'm not saying that people are lying - but if they just talk more on winning days than losing days, it will feel like they are always winning.

I know someone who is always winning gambling and broke as fuck from gambling. I assume some in these topics aren't as ahead as some of you act. It sucks not being able to have funds to join in, but I still read to see what yinz are doing.

I think Trump is for it, not sure about McConnell. Trump believes that people are using the checks for their intended purpose - to buy stocks - and the plan to send the market higher is working. As soon as the market had one big down day last week the administration immediately started talking about more payouts to individuals.

Also, you're kidding yourself if you think Biden would handle this riot stuff better or that it's an easy problem. Bill Clinton could probably handle this situation better, and Biden from 10 years ago might have done a competent job. The version of Biden we have today who appears lost and has trouble putting sentences together would not.

Trump is on the record against it as of now.

All Trump had to do was be a peaceful voice and the fringe voters would have sided with him because the other side is marred with violence. He met it with a strong hand and made it worse.

What is the general point of view around this from the other conservatives you know?

My boss seems okay with the notion of the unemployment being extended. He is super against voting for Biden. Says we lose our jobs for good then.

I'd say approximately half of my co-workers have said if Republicans screw them out of the unemployment boost or a similar idea, they are voting Blue. Other half are Trump or Die.

My mill probably voted 99.7% for Trump last election. Looks very mixed right now. Obviously this is kind of a wedge issue where if the unemployment thing isn't going to affect you, you kind of don't realize it maybe.

We all pretty much agree it was broken when it came out so if they adjust it some to fix it being broken it is understandable, but... We think something should be in place also.

Which, sure it is opportunistic I guess. It affects us so we want it. But, we reasonably believe our jobs we are being laid off from are because of the Coronavirus and the Unemployment boost itself also with the autoworkers refusing to go back. So, *shrug*

https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/files/monetary20200615a1.pdf

This is today's press release giving details of the Federal Reserve's plan to buy $750 billion in corporate bonds. This along with the recent extension of the Paycheck Protection Plan for small businesses from 8 to 24 weeks, which is probably providing a windfall to businesses in areas not heavily impacted by the pandemic, is a huge amount of money the government is throwing at the economy. And of course, the Fed has already spent (printed) like 2 trillion buying government bonds to add money to the system.

Given all this money printing going on, I agree that it's only fair to extend the $600 per month payments. Why should employees of large employers miss out?

I might vote Biden regardless of the unemployment situation based on Trump's handling of the riots/protests. But, I am 100% Biden if his white house double fucks us with the employment situation. Like, the biggest thing to keep the economy from teetering is to keep money where it is needed.

Again. It's a single video. If I post a single video of an African-american man not being shot in the same scenario, is racism now gone again?

It's a tailored small sample. You are making very large generalizations off of a single video. Inviso didn't obliterate anyone in regards to that video. Just as I didn't obliterate anyone if I post a video of a violent African American fleeing without being shot.

There are maybe a couple of people here in this topic that actually discuss with "good faith" on the left when faced with opposing ideology. But, Lasa is borderline on whether I would consider him that. He isn't as bad as some of them I guess, if that's a plus. But, he gets hostile a lot in his discussions.

You can even look to his first post to me here. It was an antagonistic post. He didn't say, hey Corrik did you want to respond to this? Look at his post. It's antagonistic off the bat.

It wasn't an instant. Almost the entire time the guy is screaming he isn't resisting, he is clearly resisting. From what I can see in the video, from 11 seconds to 17 seconds he is clearly resisting. I can't tell slightly before or after that. Still 6 seconds worth of resisting isn't an instant.

You keep using the word "should", which is the whole point we're trying to make. Yes, if you're going to have police brutality, it SHOULD disregard race and be applied equally to both white people and black people. But in REALITY, if Rayshard Brooks was white, he WOULD not have been treated to the same level of excessive force that he WAS treated to.

I disagree with your would usage there. I say should because I cannot discount the possibility that a stereotyping occured. I think it is unlikely the a cop that just got punched in the mouth by a white man and had a taser shot at him from him wouldn't have fired that gun.

But, I am not omniscient and can say 100% for sure that is the case or not. So I say SHOULD. However, your stance of what he WOULD have done does necessitate being omniscient to make that statement.

If the police, however stupid you think they are for not shooting a violent guy before he hurt other people, are physically ABLE to show enough restraint to not shoot and kill a naked, multiple-murderer (not to mention Patrick Crusius was captured alive, Nikolas Cruz was captured alive, James E. Holmes was captured alive, Robert Bowers was captured alive, Dylan Roof was captured alive)...then perhaps it's strange that black men committing far less grievous and dangerous offenses aren't shown that same level of restraint.

Comparing different cops. Different scenarios.

Here is what should be a given if that you literally just race swapped rayshard to white.

1. He still should have had the same outcome, and it still would have been a reasonable, legal, and justified decision to shoot him.

2. You wouldn't be complaining about the injustice of it nor would it have even made the media.

And, to cap it all off because I ain't wasting more time trying to have an argument based on sweeping generalizations made on singular videos because that's just dumb (unless it is the same exact police in the same exact scenario),

I being the innocent public in this scenario would have felt much safer knowing my cops acted as they did in Atlanta when faced with a violent offender versus of how those keystone ass cops acted in that video where I am not sure if the female cop has gotten up off the ground still at this point, not even to critique the like senior citizen sheriff.

I feel completely safer knowing cops will act when they are supposed to in order to keep the public safe. Who knows if that guy went down the road and caused an accident killing people. That is on the cops if so.

But the police didn't use deadly force on an actively violent white man that they used on a fleeing black man, so your argument is kinda bullshit.

And they have on a specific violent white man that they didn't on a specific African-American man. It's literally picking an argument on cherry picked singular videos.

If the white man there was shot, we would be saying the same exact thing. Legal, reasonable, justified, not gray at all.

Same as here.

White people are killed more by the cops every year than African-American people. Granted, because their population percentage is higher. But, if you think there aren't examples of violent white people being shot also and vice versa of violent African-americans fleeing not shot, then you are being silly.

Uh, what planet are you from?

Inviso posted a single video of when police did a poor job with a white person. And compared it to a single time when they did a reasonable job with an African-American person.

You would have to be off your rocker to think white people haven't been shot fleeing the police when deemed a risk, and also off your rocker to think African-americans haven't fled before where police failed to try to stop them with lethal means.

You could watch cops and live pd to see the latter pretty obviously.

If posting a terrible argument is obliterating your position, then lol at you, bud.

We can all cherry pick a video or two to make an obviously nonsense argument. It would be like me posting one of a white man being shot and one of a african-american man not being and saying white people are being killed in situations African-americans aren't.

It's literally that dumb of an argument. It's why it wasn't worth responding to. The ??? Is to you for thinking it was a good argument.

It's very simple. The laws, re-affirmed by the supreme court, give the police the legal means to decide to stop a violent offender / risk to the public with whatever means necessary (also when they are being attacked also - as seen in the struggle, officer being punched, and the taser shot at him).

The police being out to protect the public, but not obligated to, should stop at all costs a perpetrator that has shown propensity to violence from being able to harm the public, preferably by detaining or stopping with force as a last resort.

What he did was reasonable, legal, and not surprising.

So she's accusing them of falsifying the one number that actually matters (deaths) by about 3%.

She also said they weren't counting antibody tests as positives... Which, in other states people are criticizing state government's for putting antibody test results in with the regular cases.

Cop clearly didn't stop to get the protester to walk into him. Protester clearly walked behind the cop from a side position in which the cop couldn't see he crossed behind him. Protester clearly accidentally bumped the police officer. Police clearly began to arrest the man thinking he hit the officer. Protester clearly resisted the arrest.

Analysis.

It was an accident.
He wouldn't have been forcefully detained at the end if he hadn't resisted.
If he hadn't resisted, he would have likely been let go as they sorted it out and realized the accident.
Resisting is a crime.
However, he will likely be let off when reviewing it became more obvious it was just an accident.

Ah, but here is the counterpoint. With this instance, the cops have proven that they are capable of subduing a violent offender without the need to draw their weapons. Thus proving there is absolutely no NEED whatsoever to draw their weapons, or god forbid, shoot someone who is a non-violent OR violent offender. When they shoot someone, they are doing it by choice. Because in this and many other examples, they show time and time again that they can subdue even violent offenders without shooting them, if they want to.

They didn't prove that. The man choked an innocent person in the process. Thank God he didn't kill somebody else in the process, when he showed the propensity of being violent and being capable of it. You don't let innocents be at risk for a violent offender.
