Election results discussion thread (and sadly the inevitable aftermath)

[Houseman]

Missourian here. Senator Hawley is considered a state-wide embarrassment. He's every idiot private school douchebag who thinks he's smarter than he actually is. A good rule of thumb is if Hawley thinks something is true, assume the opposite and you're good.

Funny how we keep electing "embarrassments" to be our representatives...

Remember when I said I'm not a big fan of democracy?

 

[Agema]

It's fine, character assassination is par for the course here. People can't argue the merits of the claims themselves, so they have to attack the person instead.

Yourself as much as anyone, of course.

Funny would imply it’s a joke and not a sad and pathetic reality. No one is fucking laughing.

From the Georgia hearings earlier today: Georgia Committee just voted unanimously voted for a motion to forensically examine all the absentee ballots from the Fulton counting center.

I guess we're at the point where searching for evidence of a crime passes for evidence of that crime.

What, exactly, are you referring to?

Pretty much everything you ever posted.

Literally what you're posting. Do you even read what you copy-paste?

It should go without saying at this point, but this claim about PA is a straightforward lie.

And even if it weren't false, the conclusion wouldn't follow from it. There were more votes, therefore we win! (No, don't bother counting them.)

 

[Seanchaidh]

Don't you get it, man? Obama once called Kanye West a "jackass". Therefore there's literally no difference whatsoever between him and the daily mounds of public shit-flinging Trump does every day. We should also start executing people for traffic violations, because they are literally every bit as much lawbreakers as mass murderers.

But we typically don't execute mass murderers. It's the petty murderers who get the short end of it.

 

[Houseman]

And even if it weren't false, the conclusion wouldn't follow from it. There were more votes, therefore we win! (No, don't bother counting them.)

That's like saying "there could have been an equal number of Republicans and Democrats causing property damage during the BLM riots, you don't know!"

1)It's not actually like that, as there is no particular reason to suspect Democrats more than Republicans of fiddling with votes.
2)You actually don't know about the partisan affiliation of the very laudable property damage caused in the aftermath of high profile police murders. Frankly, much of it was almost certainly non-partisan, as nothing good comes from the two major parties.
3)Once again, the claim wasn't even true to begin with.

 

[Avnger]

Oh, so it's the exact same as those "dueling electors" the state GOP parties sent for the electoral college vote. Political theatre meant to fool rubes.

Speaking of...

Please explain how what I posted is " searching for evidence of a crime passes for evidence of that crime. "

Why?

Here's exactly how that will play out:

1a. You'll ignore it.
1b. You'll pick a single phrase out of a 400 word post to play semantics with.
1c. You'll engage with what you want me to have written rather than what I actually wrote.
2. I/others will attempt to drag you back to the actual point.
3. Someone will chime in with a sick burn of you.
4. You post some other blatantly false claim
5. I/others move on to engaging your post from step 4
6. Several pages later, you repeat the original claim that started this craptastic process.

So you can't, in other words.

I mean, you just did Anvger point 1a, 1c, 2 in 6 words. It’s incredible

From the Georgia hearings earlier today: Georgia Committee just voted unanimously voted for a motion to forensically examine all the absentee ballots from the Fulton counting center.

If this forensic examination comes to pass, it won't convince any of the complainants, including yourself. The second it doesn't turn up what you expect/want it to turn up, accusations will start flying that the examiners were in on it.

Can you imagine a scenario in which the examiners examine the absentee ballots, find nothing much untoward, and then conclude Biden won... and then yourself and Gorfias accept it?
