WAKE UP AMERICA! Israel is Killing Children With Your Tax $!

dystopianfuturetoday says...

^A pattern of logical fallacies in your arguments? Yes. False Dicotomy is the one you are using right now. You see, opposing Israeli violence does not equal supporting Palestinian violence. Needless killing of innocent people is a bad thing, no matter who pulls the trigger. I thought you conservatives were above this kind of 'moral relativism'.

^ ^Yeah, his screenname is the tell. Post Ironic trolls. Waddaya gonna do?

Favorite Games of 2008 (Videogames Talk Post)

dystopianfuturetoday says...

1. Dead Space - This game didn't get it's due. Excellent production and easily the scariest game I've ever played. This is a game to be played at night with the lights off.

2. Fallout 3 - See my screenname. Beautiful environments, plenty to explore and Bethesda actually figured out how to make combat fun.

3. GTA4 - All around great game. Not sure why so many bashed it. Sure, your cousin calls too much, but the game only requires you to take a couple of the man-date missions.

4. Braid - A mini masterpiece with a bunch of fresh and sophisticated ideas. We need more games like this.

5. Little Big Planet - The game that keeps on giving. The level editor is massive, powerfull and intimidating. If I ever finish a level, I'll post the details here.

Honorable Mention:
No More Heroes - Avant garde games are rare. This is a good one.
Professor Layton and the Mysterious Village - Cool story/animation and fun logic puzzles.
Gears of War 2 - Great game with much variety. They pulled out all the stops.
Left 4 Dead - Great multiplayer fun, but a bit skimpy on levels.

Not to mention the high profile games that I haven't played yet (Mirror's Edge, World of Goo, Far Cry 2, BanjoKazooee, Prince of Persia, MGS4, Spore).

HAHA! Wow, that's some seriously clever subterfuge. I'm glad you're on our side!

But seriously, I'm no good at hate so what else can I do? Thanks for your insights, I value them.

There is an old Ghandi quote that I'm sure you've heard 'first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win'. I just think that cp420's 'outrageous' comments aren't worthy of a fight. By simply typing pwned, he was able to steal hours of the collective time of those who argued with him, which is a pretty good return on his troll investment.

Believe me, I used to troll Republican chat rooms at the beginning of the Bush admin. The goal is to inspire as much outrage as possible with as little effort. Wasting the opposition's time and energy is the point. It was also an interesting study in psychology.

My favorite troll technique was posing as a Republican with an extremely liberal girlfriend. I pretended I didn't have my own email address and that I was forced to use my girlfriends address, which was GeorgeWFascist. People would enter the room enraged at my screenname, to which I would sheepishly apologize. The funny thing is that they actually believed my schtick and let me into their confidence.

I trolled liberal chat rooms too, sorta like Bill OReilly does here.

The other thing I learned about trolling is that it is kind of sad and lonely, because the time you spend agitating is time you are not spending with people who like you and care about you.

My 2 cents. You are a righteous kitty.

His "ignorance" is of no concern to me. He hurts my brothers and sisters, and makes them do hurtful things to him. I'm not saying that there shouldn't be dissonance on the Sift, but I don't care for the vibe it brings.

Code Pink protester Hit with Baton: BOOM HEADSHOT!

volumptuous says...

>> ^MarineGunrock:
Code Pink = bitch

No, it was just "Fuckin do it again"
"ho obviously from the video"
No, NOTHING is obvious from the video, other than confrontation. We can draw NO conclusions from this video as to what happened prior to the incident.


OK, it's become apparent that I shouldn't engage with you in any sort of discussion.

From your idiotic "bitch" comment, to your pseudo-macho screenname, you're obviously all for power-hungry cops beating the shit out of anyone who doesn't agree with your red-meat vision of this country.

And sorry dude, I have a full offline editing suite I'm sitting in right now. I cut and edit video for a living for the editors guild, and do this alllllll day long for 12 years. I know how to look at frames, I know how to study the shit out of them.

What is in this video is not open for debate. It is a little girl, four feet away from this cop, screaming "Don't fuckin' do it again", then suddenly and violently getting clothes-lined by him.

End of fucking story.
