Wikileaks has been forced to remove evidence against the United States Government. This has been done to preserve Freedom, Transparency and Free Speech as the leader of the Free and Democratic World.
  • Were documents regarding the Iraq war not included in this plea deal also? I don't have the time to go looking myself, but maybe the DNC emails are the focused concern of the tweet author (idk who the fuck mario nawfal is, seems like a scumbag wallstreet type from a quick search) but is not the primary concern (or at least not the only concern) to the US legal system.

    Idk, i find it hard to believe the DNC emails are actually more important to the state dept. than the Iraq documents. It's not surprising that they are more relevant to political agents, but from a security-department perspective those are irrelevant, or so i would have thought.

  • You'd think that after a few decades someone would have done that homework and posted it online somewhere. But I guess it's everyone's responsibility to become an amateur historian to figure it out themselves.

    It has, but every time a liberal decides they want to dissect it they latch onto some irrelevant distinction without a difference pretends they just don't understand what's being asserted.

    QuietCupcake is affirming the casualties you're pointing to in your pullquotes, but is arguing that because most did not occur in the square itself as described in the westernized accounting of the event and because the violent response started when protestors assaulted and killed several officers, the label of a 'massacre' is an intentionally misleading description that ignores what actually happened. There being a couple hundred casualties doesn't make the event a 'massacre' and honestly I think you know this. Given that you haven't defended the term but have only complained about discrepancies in first-hand accounting makes me think you know it's an indefensible description.

    Right now the biggest discrancy[sic] I'm seeing is that most of the people here want to tell me that almost half of the people killed were state employees, but that red sails articlesays the official number is closer to 10%.

    Oh look, you did the thing QuietCupcake was pointing out you were doing right after he pointed it out

    As for your other "gotcha," there are discrepancies in the exact number of deaths, which no one here has denied and again, I addressed in my last comment where I said: "In the few instances where there may be contradictory first hand accounts (and mostly, the accounts are not contradictory but rather corroborate each other) there may be some ambiguity." It's funny how you seemed to have latched onto trying to find those ambiguities, but totally ignored the whole reason I said that.

    'I'm just trying to get answers so I can understand.' Bullshit. You're farming for vague details so that you can dismiss the broader point being made and keep your a-historical and politically-motivated description that was suggested to you from decades of red-scare propaganda.

  • Ya know though, I've seen him do site bans like that for reactionary pro-israel comments before, so I suppose I shouldn't be completely surprised.

    I'm assuming this comment didn't take place on a midwest.social comm, right?

    edit: he does hit the mark on occasion, for instance about a day ago he banned someone for being a landlord which is waow-based

  • Apparently Geico won't insure the Cybertruck any more.
  • Tesla fanboys and florida vacationers being the first people to get booted off of privatized property insurance might be the best way to start the era of climate disaster. The only way this would be better is if all the newly uninsured cybertrucks are in florida for a IRL meetup when a hurricane sweeps them all into the ocean.
