OT: Current Affairs and Politics

[Poupou Escobar]

Ive come to the conclusion that the USA is right up there with the dodgiest places in the world .... our western oriented media has just swayed us to think they are the cool kids over the years - and maybe they once were more wholesome

And i also think this election likely goes above and beyond the usual shit ... because of the total division in the place, largely fueled by the absolute hatred of trump - and im not saying that is right or wrong, but its huge and is firing up the Dems which in turn fires up the Republicans as they defend theirs.

anyway, i tend to think there is probably far more dodgy shit going on this time, both ways ... or maybe i am just taking notice of it for the first time?

I also think the media is more against trump, and more likely to show his and the republicans bad side, which i am saying is most definitely bad ... but i think the Dems are getting a bit of a hall pass (ie everything gets discredited) as they are the cool kids atm

Exactly. The media lie by omission. That means there is significant bias in whatever view of reality they're selling.

Nope.

Election was won. Amd they froze and then all of a sudden all the mysterious votes come in for Biden. Looks like Clinton's won't go to jail hey.

Mysterious ‘postal votes’.

Was always expected. They’ve been talking about the ‘red mirage’ for weeks.

Who have? The media? The same people invested in Biden since the beginning? Nice way to set a narrative.

There's hijinks afoot, for sure. In PA, polls that were supposed to open at 06:00 didn't open until 08:00 and so people had to leave and go to work and lost out on their chance to vote.

And who votes on the day? Republicans. So who was disenfranchised? Republicans.

In Arizona, officials were giving out sharpie pens to use for voting and telling people not to use ballpoint pens. Turns out a sharpie pen invalidates your vote. Who got these sharpies? Republicans.

In WI, when the vote went from (I think) 94% to 95%, the count changed for Trump by 20k but for Biden by 150k, despite ballot registration being 43%-to-35% for Republicans vs. Democrats. That's the state lost right there.

There's hijinks afoot. Skullduggery.

choose to believe this or not .... a "vote chaser" admitting to what they are doing and that it is illegal

I'm sure these people will have been labelled fake .... I dunno, maybe they are .... but I reckon its likely true - and as I said, I bet it happens both ways

I think you're well capable of googling your sources reliability and std MO, and working out the likelihood of whatever shit they post being true.

 

[Bandwagon]

Well I'm sure we can agree that this particular election is all valid and above board. Unless Trump wins.

Why would the validity of the count be dependent upon the winner?

 

[hindy111]

HJ you owe me $120.
When can I have it

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

I was wrong. There are no hijinks afoot at all.

 

[Gronk]

Stop counting, we’re ahead !

Nek minute

 

[Bandwagon]

@hindy111 Bit early to shoot you load yet mate, we're only 85% of the way there.

 

[Gronk]

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

Once again, no hijinks. None whatsoever.

 

[Bandwagon]

Stop counting, we’re ahead !

Nek minute

PA count was always gonna go into Thursday / Friday.

 

[Gronk]

Oh f**k. They’ve got an army of angels on the interchange bench.

 

[hindy111]

I was wrong. There are no hijinks afoot at all.

I want my $120 please

Your claims are even too bizarre for Fox News to support.

So surprised (not) that if Trump is ahead, it’s legit. However when he’s behind it’s rigged.

What I don’t get is when the result remain in the balance , he’s carrying on like a plastered good sort at the races. He could still win it FFS. How about some grace for a change ?

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

Your claims are even too bizarre for Fox News to support.

And right there you show your myopia.

Fox News? The same Fox News that kept calling states early for Biden and had to keep walking them back? The same Fox whose coverage was headed by Chris Wallace?

Fox News is, by and large, no different than the other Fake News organisations. But you're so ensnared by their false paradigm that you can't see it.

But there's no hijinks afoot. Biden got those 140k votes legit, while Trump got literally zero during that same stretch.

Legit. No hijinks.

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

Hijinks (that totally don't exist) aside...Trump now needs Nevada. If he gets that, plus GA, PA and NC, he limps over the line.

 

[Gronk]

Here it is in simple terms.

 

[hindy111]

Whoever wins
It shows that 50% are pro Trump amd 50% are pro Biden.

Its basicaly split in half.
