I’ve got nothing

I find it fascinating that so many folx believe that it’s perfectly fine to blatantly lie about things, as long as the lie moves the narrative forward.  It’s even more egregious when it’s the media doing the lying.

And yet another empty-handed, vague and unsupported claim... the sort that appeals to idiots and cowards... almost certainly a lie meant to demonize.

Repent.

Craig said...

Really? There’s a picture going around social media (credited to Reuters I believe) that is captioned as showing a Guatemalan women and child begging a soldier to let them come into the US.

The problem is that it’s a Mexican soldier and the Mexico/Guatemala border.


Not to mention the whole Elijah Cummings BS.

Your problem is that you make too many assumptions.

Craig said...

Sorry, that’s one of your problems. Your history of disappearing in the middle of conversations, when things get difficult is another, and your reluctance to venture outside of your safe space is another.

Craig said...

David Zurawick, P-BO, and BS, have all used the same sort of language to describe Baltimore.

The question is, why does Cummings get a free pass for his failure to provide solutions after 30 odd years in Congress?

But little things like facts and truth mustn’t be allowed to get in the way of the holy narrative.

Dan Trabue said...

Just more empty-headed, unsupported nonsense. Idiotic pablum to scare stupid people. Trump's Big Con for the useful idiots.

Repent.

Craig said...

It’s so much easier to airily dismisses unpleasant, inconvenient reality than it is to deal with it. Especially when being consistent isn’t a priority.

It’s hard to dismiss things that are verifiable as easily as you do.

Dan Trabue said...

What part of, YOU HAVE NOT SAID ANYTHING TO RESPOND TO, are you failing to understand? You have not made a credible, solid claim about A SINGLE THING. Just empty vague unsupported foul diarrhea gas.

Fuck that nonsense. You want to argue like a credible adult? State a specific charge. Support it with data, with quotes and supported citations.

This is gibberish that is just embarrassingly banal that you regularly vomit out.

It is pathetic, diabolical Trump-grade horseshit that only lends more support to the racists, conmen and fearmongers.

To hell with this God damned nonsense.

Repent.

Craig said...

Why, yes I have addressed specific things (the lies about the photo, the Cummings mess), you just don’t want to do your own research and put in the effort on something that might make you and yours look bad.

It as far as making specific claims backed by evidence, I’ve pointed out numerous instances in the past few months where you’ve done exactly what you claim I don’t.

If you won’t provide evidence for your claims, why should you be able to demand that of others?

It’s just your typical “engage in an expletive filled, ad hom, attack” strategy instead of dealing with the issues and hiding in your safe space.

Craig said...

Because actual pictures and videos of conditions in Cummings district that demonstrate the conditions just aren’t anything close to evidence.

Dan Trabue said...

Read my words and use your fucking skull as a place to think, instead of taking a foul dump:

What "Guatemalan photo" lie? I DON"T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT YOU WASTE OF HUMAN FLESH. I can find a reference online to a photo of a Guatemalan woman as she pleas with a Mexican border agent, but I can't find anything about a lie. Do you know why?

BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT GIVEN A SINGLE FUCKING LINK TO WHATEVER IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS HOLY THAT YOU ARE VOMITING FROM YOUR WASTE OF A BRAIN.

Is there some story out there somewhere where Reuters (or someone, we don't know who because YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO, apparently) made a false claim about which border the woman was at. We don't know because YOU, as you typically do, offered some vague reference to SOME story without giving a single link to explain what the fuck you are talking about.

Believe it or not, not everyone knows every single story that is reported in the world today, you idiot.

NO, this is not about a story or you could link to it. It's about a fucking piece of shit lie by another fear monger trying to spread a false narrative about the media by sharing innuendo and rumors and gossip and brainless nothing ness. It may indeed work to spread fear and hate amongst the cowardly idiot class, but it is NOT an adult level conversation or argument.

It is verbal diarrhea. It is a false fucking claim from a sack of shit place meant to demonize, not to shed light. It is diabolical and it is not part of the realm of God or just basic human decency.

WHAT "Cummings mess..."? You have offered NO DATA to which one can reasonably respond. You're just another privileged candy-ass white guy spreading stupid nothing false claims to attack/lynch another black man, just like your racist boss-man Trump does all the time.

Good God, stop going to Haiti and pretending to care about people of color and start LISTENING to people of color here, you fucking lying piece of shit.

REPENT.

Or, at the very least, pretend to make an adult-level argument with data and links. This is just nonsense and it's why it's not worth my time to come here. I'm making these comments not for you, as you are what you are. It's just in case some normal person comes along and needs to see people standing against your Trump-like racist lies and nonsense.

Dan Trabue said...

The ONE thing you've said correct so far? "I've got nothing."

Indeed.

Dan Trabue said...

actual pictures and videos of conditions in Cummings district that demonstrate the conditions just aren’t anything close to evidence.

1. YOU HAVE NOT POINTED TO A SINGLE THING. NOT ONE THING. NOT ONE SOURCE.

2. That conditions in a city or state are not universally good is not a universal conviction of the representatives.

3. I note that you have not said ANYTHING negative about my own old white rich Senator, McConnell, about the pathetic state of the poor in his state. Let's see... What's the difference between the dire poverty in Appalachia and McConnell's inability to "fix" it and the attack on the "disgusting rodent infested" Baltimore? Or the "crime-infested" lands of the ancestors of "the Squad..."?

Hmm... Could it be that the racists have always referred to black folk and people of color as vermin and crime ridden and used terms like "infested" and rats and animals and shitholes to refer to these people and their homelands?

If you're so privileged that you are blinded to the racism of these constant attacks on people of color, then Good God, pluck our your eyes so you can start listening to the voices of the oppressed and recognize racism when it's right in front of your face, put into office by privileged white people like you.

Repent.

"you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:

“‘These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
They worship me in vain;
their teachings are merely human rules.’"

“Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots. 14 Leave them; they are blind guides.[d] If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.”

...“Are you still so dull?” Jesus asked them. “Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander."

...“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to."...

“Woe to you, blind guides!"

“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.

You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel."

“You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell? Therefore I am sending you prophets and sages and teachers. Some of them you will kill and crucify; others you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town."

~Jesus

Stop the stupid false and unsupported claims. Stop the false gossip. Stop the slander. This is not part of the realm of God.

Repent.

Craig said...

I just saw an op Ed piece from the Baltimore Sun and find their approach interesting. It appears as though they are in barest because Trump is using the condition of their city to make a political point, but if they’re not in barest that the condition of their city is what it is.

Craig said...

Dan, your lack of self-awareness is stunning. It’s almost as stunning as your lack of awareness of things happening in the world outside of your little cocoon. I do realize how much you need to be spoonfed information, and how difficult it is for you to do searches. But as long as you aren’t going to do what you demand from other people. You shouldn’t expect anyone to take your demands or complaints seriously. The fact that you’ve reverted to expletive the field add homonym attacks says all anyone needs to know.

Craig said...

1. Except I have. This is a widespread news story, it’s not obscure. The BS, P-BO and other comments that use similar terms are out there.

2. Not necessarily. But when you have the same problems, with the same people governing, who make the same promises to fix the same problems for 30+ years, it’s hard to just give them a pass.

3. Maybe because that’s not the current news story. Maybe because the post isn’t so much about the conditions as it is about the lies being told and the holy narrative that must be protected at all costs. Maybe it’s because this is your version of a smokescreen to avoid the unpleasant fact that Saint P-BO and BS, said virtually the same things about Baltimore and didn’t get attacked. Maybe because your more worried about bashing Trump, than you are about the people living in these conditions in Baltimore.


For the record, I’ve addressed this phenomenon multiple times over the years and have never gotten a good response.

I get it. You’re so desperate to slander Trump, and to ignore the racism/anti-Semitism/failures on your side that you’ll go to any lengths.

When you try to use the words of Christ to legitimize your manifestly unchristlike behavior, it is just one more area where your double standards undermine whatever validity you might have.

Dan Trabue said...

Show me ANY LINK that you posted to support your point or even make clear what in the FUCK you are talking about. Show me that link and I will apologize and admit you are correct, you supported it.

YOU CAN'T because YOU HAVEN'T posted anything to support whatever it is you're talking about.

You are a God damned liar and shame on you. You are an embarrassment to your family, your children, your mother and father. You are a ass stain on the body of Christ.

THIS is your entire limp dick piece of trash post...

"I find it fascinating that so many folx believe that it’s perfectly fine to blatantly lie about things, as long as the lie moves the narrative forward. It’s even more egregious when it’s the media doing the lying."

NOT ONE LINK.

NOT ONE EXPLANATION OF WHATEVER IT IS YOU ARE EVEN TALKING ABOUT. Just some vague slanderous, schoolboy piece of gossip that would embarrass a first grader to pass on, if that first grader had any sense of decency. "The media is doing the lying..."

WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, Ass wipe?

Repent.

Craig said...

I haven’t posted any links, because everything I’ve mentioned is readily available to anyone with a tiny bit of motivation.

But, speaking of providing proof of your claims. How about you prove yours?

“You are a God damned liar”

You’ve made the claim, prove it.

Is pointing out the hypocrisy inherent in these situations really something that needs to be repented of?

I guess defending the almighty holy narrative is hard work and requires large numbers of expletives and ad hominem attacks.


Craig said...

This while strategy of misdirection is fascinating. Instead of dealing with the hypocrisy, the failures, the double standards we get, “Yeah, but the other guy is worse.”.

That’s just defending the failed status quo.

Craig said...

I just googled the Guatemalan woman story with the misleading headline, it’s pretty easy to find.

To be fair, the story corrects the false impression given by the headline. Unfortunately the bigger lies have occurred because people didn’t read past the headline and pass it on the false version.

Craig said...

“Democrat Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh, who resigned this May over a scandal, said about Baltimore in 2018:

“What the hell? We should just take all this shit down. Whoa, you can smell the rats. Whew, Jesus. Oh, my God, you can smell the dead animals.”

But Trump pointing out this reality is the problem, not the reality of the situation.

Craig said...

Hell,there’s a PBS documentary about the rat infestation in Baltimore. Who knew PBS were such racists?

One more damn racist

Craig said...

“Last 3 Baltimore mayors

- Sheila Dixon: Convicted of stealing gift cards from the poor

- Stephanie Rawlings-Blake: Stepped down after promoting the Baltimore Riots

- Catherine Pugh: Raided by FBI for taking bribes

All Democrats”

Craig said...

“"Baltimore City is 177 days into 2019. There have been 152 homicides. School system sucks. Property taxes are ridiculous. Squeegee kids attack your cars at intersections. WHY would anyone choose to live there? Beyond me."

I posted this earlier to silence. But I guess a liberal woman who actually lives there probably has nothing to add.

Craig said...

“Democrats have historically failed black people in this country time and again. Look no further than the city of Baltimore for evidence.

This is why I am #BlackNotDemocrat.”

Craig said...

“As Pugh toured the neighborhood, she said: "What the hell? We should just take all this sh*t down. ... Whoa, you can smell the rats. ... Whew, Jesus. ... Oh, my God, you can smell the dead animals."

Craig said...

“Fox 5 Baltimore in 2017: “A Project Baltimore investigation has found five Baltimore City high schools and one middle school do not have a single student proficient in the state tested subjects of math and English.”

Craig said...

From what I can tell, it’s not at all stretching reality to say that Baltimore is infested with actual vermin.

Marshal Art said...

Funny...I've asked Dan numerous times to provide a link to any post of his that proves he's criticized Obama. Still waiting while he makes demands of you.

Craig said...

It’s a strange condition that drives someone to hold themselves to the complete opposite standards than they hold others to.

You know how well either request will be received.

Craig said...

“ATF, FBI, & Crime Stoppers are offering up to $32,000 for information leading to the arrest of three suspects, two men and one woman, for the assault of a @BaltimorePolice civilian employee on Albemarle St. in East Baltimore on July 24th. Call 866-7LOCKUP with tips.”


What’s interesting about Trump’s “strategy”, is that he’s forcing the DFL to defend the indefensible. You’ve literally got people on the left trying to defend conditions that BS called “third world” and democrat leadership that’s allowed this condition to continue for decades.

Craig said...

“Also Baltimore Sun: "A new audit of how the city manages millions of dollars in state and federal grants has come to the same conclusion that previous examinations have: Grant money coming into government coffers is not balancing out with what city agencies are spending."

Craig said...

“In 2017, Baltimore had a homicide rate of 57.8 per 100,000. Guatemala, in that same year, had a homicide rate of 26.1 per 100,000.”


I’m guessing that either Baltimore residents should be applying to Guatemala for asylum, or we shouldn’t send anyone claiming asylum to Baltimore.

Craig said...

“During a congressional hearing in 1999, Cummings said: "This morning I left my community of Baltimore, a drug infested area" where people were "walking around like zombies."

Damn racist.
