    You people bringing up a video or two doesn’t represent the whole of the thing that you think it does.

    Socialists/far-leftists/tankies…. wherever you fit into the knee-jerk political spectrum of childishly manufactured outrage- there’s one thing in common with them all:

    A complete willful disregard to even try and understand how nuance works, and how it is applied to nearly everything that exists.

      When did I ever say the video represented the whole thing? All I did was provide literal video evidence that what the comic described has actually happened. No more no less.

      What nuance is there to be had over the existence of a video? Either it exists or it doesn’t, that’s it, there’s no nuance to be had. So fuck off with your derailing nonsense about some grand leftist conspiracy about the existence of a video.

      We get it, you like when governments indiscriminately kill people and nutjobs fake distress and call the police to assault protestors. Just be honest about it.

        Because it’s your entire argument. Also, the entire argument of this original post.

            As you yourself said….

            All you did was provide- in your own words…literal video evidence” of a single event to support your argument that it’s a blanket effect.

            (If it helps you not look silly in the future- video evidence can’t be literal)

              Nope, didn’t happen, not what I said. Op said the situation presented in the post (a person claiming protesters are anti semitic to a cop) never happened. I presented a video where that exact scenario did actually happen. I never said it represented the whole thing, only that it did happen therefore refuting the claim that it never happened. The scenario is literally identical, not literal video evidence. You can’t even quote me correctly.

              You are a literal textbook example of a strawman, replacing my argument with something I never said, and attacking that instead of attacking my point, that the scenario described in the image did actually happen. So if you’d like to disprove that this video never actually happened, please be my guest, or if you can’t fuck off.

                That’s some IMAX level projection there bud. I’m going to go ahead and walk away from this embarrassment of a discussion.

                I just don’t have the patience to interact with trolls like I used to. The proof of my point is there for all to see though. So…. Vindication!

                Blocking you now. You’re useless to me.

                  You’re the one who joined in on the thread, you’re just butthurt I’m calling out your bs arguments. Not my fault you can’t handle it.

                  No projection, and you’re free to reread exactly what I wrote.
