Still my favorite example. This tweet is so carefully composed to seem like it’s in solidarity with Trump while not actually supporting his claims. It’s art. https://t.co/uTN4g5XAm1

And just to be clear, I think this is rank cowardice that’s going to hurt the country. https://t.co/gY8Jj6vwB7

Republicans are not going to be able to indulge the stolen election theory now and shut it down later. Their base is just going to go crazier, and they’re going to be pushed into crazier territory to avoid challengers and win primaries.

The intra-Palestinian meeting in Moscow has precedent
— Hanna Notte (@HannaNotte) February 29, 2024
Russia's hosted such meetings in the past, most recently Feb 2019
Russia has long lamented the US' "monopolization" of the peace process & tried to carve out a niche for itself: mediating among the disunited Palestinians/2

Actions to take:

- Do not attempt to drive through roadblocks; and
- If you encounter a roadblock, turn around and get to a safe area.

A mass expulsion of Afghan migrants could destabilize the region and fuel radicalization. The West should pressure Islamabad to change course.
All eyes on #Chad right now
Chad has two internet trunks coming into the country: One from the Red Sea via Sudan; the other from Cameroon. Not possible for the totality of the country's internet network to be shut unless done centrally. A lot of rumors swirling; few facts. https://t.co/N6bDJZ2ixO

oh you'd rather see this site empty? Is that what you are saying?
Cancel me? That's the game you are playing. Come to protect the site so it's empty?
Really why don't you address your arguments to the people I post and not to me? You just click on the tweet and if you are signed in, you can reply to them and troll them all you like.
It's really beyond me why you think I am someone important to argue with, like I am a politician with an agenda by posting this. I'm really just trying to analyze what's happening in news and politics.
FUCK YOU, REALLY. You are a waste of time. You stop once and while to post articles that everybody's read last week.
I remember what you like to do from back at TPM Cafe.Are you back here to do that? Get bored with the TPM Prime crowd? Or did they figure out your shtick and are sick of it? I used to watch you do it all the time. You haven't changed. You have your favorite posters and you like to is bait people you think are trolls bothering them and get them into a bar room brawl. You like to play games like you are a macho man protecting your little tribe and they are just too dumb and naive to know how to handle it. You like starting fights, thinking you are protecting innocents on the internet. It's a silly and childish game and arrogant at the same time.
On your deathbed, are you gonna say "that time I punked pseudonymous artappraiser on the internet" was the best ever.
You are hardly better than Rubio!
by artappraiser on Sun, 11/08/2020 - 3:59am
Uh . . . Arty?
Do you like puppies?
Oh wait... "See this site empty? Come to protect the site so it's empty?"
It seems to have happened all by it's lonely without me being 'round.
I haven't been around since mid August until this past Wednesday.
And I don't and I won't do twitter... And I find that posting just a series of
twitter graphics here is a cheap and lazy ass way to communicate. So I won't
bother to click on a tweet to address arguments to the people you post.
Enough of waste for you to post this 280+ words of rhetorical blah blah blah?
The primary rule in dealing with who you deem a troll is IGNORE them.
They'll go away. They won't have anything to respond to.
i.e. ... “that is...

Well, at least she didn't compare you to Lindsay Graham.

Thanks rmrd. . .
Well actually, I have a much more
pressing matter 'round the abode
here than to worry about how some
thin-skinned person thinks about me.

They are amusing
Me: Trump is suppressing votes
AA: Trump is not suppressing votes
PP: Trump is only suppressing votes of people who won't vote for him
Me: So Trump is suppressing votes

They are more interested in doing Monty Python Argument Clinic.
57% of white people voting for Trump is just another day.
In 2016, the problem was identity politics
In 2020, it is defund the police.
It is never how can the 57% still support Trump?
The 57% are blameless
by rmrd0000 on Mon, 11/09/2020 - 11:14am
57% support Trump? And a sampling of 15,000 people is definitive in a crazy year with some 140m+ voting in a number of different ways? Do you place that much trust in pre-election polls?
by PeraclesPlease on Mon, 11/09/2020 - 12:40pm
Thank you for that, I guess. But it makes me ponder: if you spin a pseudonymous person on the internet into a strawman and fight with them, who decides if you won? And once you've figured that out, if you got ruled the winner, what have you won?
by artappraiser on Mon, 11/09/2020 - 12:42pm
There are no winners. And if you seem to be winning, we'll spin again. Losers and suckers - that's the new game in town.

Bring out the old gamer metaphors used in blog bulletin board debates circa 2004. We've got an old codger here now who proudly doesn't use Twitter and is still using his desktop library of scatalogical images from Yahoo Search to pwn the Bushies!
