In other news

In other news

In the current news climate we see that some figures and events tend to dominate the front-pages heavily. Still, there are important, interesting or just plain weird things happening out there and a group of people can find these better than one.

I thought I would test with a thread for linking general news articles about "other news" and discussion. Perhaps it goes into the abyss that is page 2 and beyond, but it is worth a try.

Some guidelines:
- Try to find the "clean link", so that links to the news site directly and not a social media site. Avoid "amp-links" (google).
- Write some cliff notes on what it is about, especially if it is a video.
- It's not an excuse to make outlandish claims via proxy or link extremist content.
- If it's an editorial or opinion piece, it is polite to mark it as such.
- Note the language if it is not in English.
- There is no demand that such things be posted here, if you think a piece merits its own thread, then make one.

The investigation is ongoing so they could be simply keeping the public abreast of things. That said they should wait until they get more definitive answers before making public statements, imo.

They face an impossible conundrum because if they wait, conspirators run amok for longer and their thesis can get a foothold in public opinion, if they rush to conclusions before being 100% sure they face the risk of having to pivot later.

There is no good solution

It's actually a very good way usually to determine who is trying to push which narrative and how, which happens very frequently.

A lot of media acts in inherently malicious ways when covering these events for very specific agenda, but usually reverts to be "forced" to admit the truth when that's provable in a sustained way (and usually that is followed by sandbagging the event, if it can't be spinned in favor of the media ideological tribe)

As if regulated media’s getting paid to report news would be more malicious then a total unknown unregulated (maybe crazy) foreigner bot/person in the world couldn’t be more malicious ?

Makes lot of sense …..
Funny you trust so much the markets to tell or know the truth for example in real este near the ocean about climate changes but don’t trust multi billions media corporations because they would magically being shielded from the markets « truth » tellers…..

Or, I reported what was reported at the time and I also corrected it later on when information changed.

Anyway let's regulate truck more !

If the initial report you saw was some white guy who was drunk you wouldn’t have said **** ITT, but because you saw undocumented immigrant who has been in the country for 2 days you couldn’t wait to fire off your sick burn. Lol at the audacity of being indignant about because you ‘corrected yourself’

You’re fooling nobody


I don’t see any self correcting, only others pointing out how wrong Luciom was.

I don't think I wrote undocumented , maybe you imagined that.

But man keep going like this if you like and if it makes your life better! Diversity is your strength

I wrote to victor that the citizenship status was unverified before your squad came to comment my first comment.

Anyway it was a very diverse American, the source of strength of your country according to you, who committed the horrific crime.

I am sure we would have a multiple of such events is america wasn't diverse, if like for most countries in the world for most of history, it would have been automatic to determine citizenship from the name, there will be many more horrific massacres.

You are so lucky to have so much diversity


by Luciom k

Maybe but we have 0 clout and reach that's why the chances we actually believe what we write is useful is much higher

Lol fair enough


Our diversity bucket for violent offenses against society is a little full. We need to put some back or we'll spoil our dinner.

Diversity is always inherently socially good (unless it's about opinions, then everyone to the right of AOC is an extremist which should be in jail)

Amazing post again.
I almost feel sorry for you now.
You are such a sad person , I feel also sorry for your kids and whoever crossed your path in this world.
Man, you sound so lonely this is very sad.

I am sure you think this is another one of your sick burns from our exchange that you were babbling about yourself in the third person but it really isn't. Yes, diversity is a strength of our citizenship but you haven't shown any link between this guys conduct and our diversity. Who knows what the investigators will regarding his motive when they have completed their work. We know that hurts your "jump to the racial and violent illegal" narrative you were so hoping for based on his immigration status. I still missed your self correction or that you admitted you were wrong, so please link.

We may have missed this one nutball, but we are still doing our best to keep the fascist nutballs in Italy.

I can only imagine how many people are saying this about you right now, after your relentless personal attacks on people only because you don't agree with them. This is very sad.

Don’t project yourself on us ….
The people on the left of the « far right like yourself » know there is a center right , center , center left ,etc .

So we don’t believe the right of AOC are extremist .

But u do claim evreryone is leftish on your lefts .

Furthermore u are the one calling evil anyone being left from your pov ….and advocating using violence( or even killing in some instance ) for manifestations , vs immigrants, etc .

The only thing I’m aware of the people calling maga are stupid , conspiracy theorist and we are not advocating prison or killing them either

With you we do the same but we are not calling you evil but simply fascist ands we do not wish u death or prison for your opinions either …

It’s you who sees terrorist attack, or foreign criminality everywhere .

You can stop your inflated narrative toward those that disagree with you ….
And take example from them instead.


If the guy had run over protestors, Luciom would be for building public statutes of the guy.

Ad hominem is the recourse of the man who has no other arguments.

You can follow forum rules and stop attacking people and instead comment claims or you can keep doing your thing which evidently you like to do

No, only if the protest wasn't authorized and so was an illegal violent crime in fieri (illegal abuse of property rights), which of course would change the picture completely, because violence isn't inherently wrong, it depends on when and how it is used, for all normal people

I can't even imagine Luciom coming to the aid of another person or neighbor based on his posts. I do little **** like go into neighbors houses to check on things when out of town, help jump cars, etc. my guess is that anybody even stepping into Luciom's PRIVATE PROPERTY sees a gun barrel.

It's also crazy that the only one to earn the "fascist" label is the guy advocating using state violence to enforce the rightiest of right wing beliefs.

Violence as a means for resolving political issues within your citizenship is always a last resort. Advocating for it's use as a first resort is pathetic. Guess where we put you on this scale given your **** posts.


Hi friends

Some infractions have gone out. Let’s try to pull it back with the personal attacks please.

Inso, bahbah, Lozen and Bundy- no one calls them fascists. If Playbig stopped sucking up to Donald Trump, he probably wouldn't even qualify as fascist-adjacent.

Yes we know for a freedom far right fighter like yourself believe property rights are for more important then a human life .
Hence it’s ok to shoot at people or drive over them for it …..

It’s as if you don’t know how individual freedom been implemented and won against monarchies, dictatorships etc throughout history .
I promise you it ain’t by respecting those properties laws under those regimes you love so much to defend

After people are already commiting a crime it's already a "last resort", in a decent society no one would even think of committing a crime in public because they would know they would be absolutely destroyed with no recourse if they ever tried.

Which is why being transparently willing to use incredible violence when necessary does vastly REDUCE the actual amount of violence.but Yoh need to be credible (ie not a leftist) when you claim you will do whatever it takes with the law on your side against criminals.

What you see in rioting and street violence and shoplifting and all the rest is what happens when people think they can get away with it.

If anyone nearby armed could legally shoot to kill you while you commit a crime, crime, and people were known to conceal carry regularly in your area, crime would go down 90-95% in public.

Because ALL people respond to real incentives.

So your lack of attitude to use extreme violence against criminals in public (and your willingness to make vigilante violence illegal) is what *causes* the crime to happen in the first place.


Not when their only crime is disagreeing with your right wing solutions.


I may not have been called a fascist today, but it's still light outside for at least another 20 minutes.
