[QUOTE=Strongbad;34451057]Note that I said that infowars is not an accurate news source. I was simply noting a pattern I'd observed in the News section. Here, let me spare you the monumental effort of pointing out what I said.[/QUOTE]
Except.. people have legitimate concerns about the accuracy of some news sites? I don't get where you're coming from. If you're talking about certain members (Such as glaber) posting (Sometimes) decent articles, then they've brought it upon themselves by continuously posting shit such as dodgy 9/11 conspiracy tales, bad science and outright opinion pieces.
So... your argument is?
So... does Faze commonly use infowars as a source?
[QUOTE=Doctor Zedacon;34451038]Wow, that was a genuinely crap post, Strongbad. Do you have any idea what infowars is or how shit it is?[/QUOTE]
Most of the time Jone's makes far far out claims but sometimes he does make some good points, mainly when it deals with shit like the militarization of the police or the federal reserve.
faze has become the new Glaber, posting shit threads people find hilarious and/or dumb.
But mostly dumb.
I scrolled down to the comments for a few seconds and I highly regret it, these people are insane.
Using infowars as a source is like taking what the Onion News Network says as fact.
that video made me feel dumber
[QUOTE=Valdor;34452150]that video made me feel dumber[/QUOTE]
That's what they're made for.
Oh for crying out loud...
Davy Crockett is more believable than this.
I don't really get the birthers argument. He showed his birth certificate, what the hell do they have to say to that?
[QUOTE=Croix;34452352]I don't really get the birthers argument. He showed his birth certificate, what the hell do they have to say to that?[/QUOTE]
They say it's faked. Basically the birthers opened it up in photoshop and found a bunch of "inconsistencies" that are all quite consistent but they insist are definitive proof. They also apparently say that the birth records in Kenya from the year Obama was born had been tampered with (if this is true I'd bet it was a birther who did it).
Here's the video:

[QUOTE=Strongbad;34450988]The Facepunch guide to determining accurate news sources!
Is it political news?
Yes:
Is it bashing a conservative?
Yes: Accurate.
No: Criticize, accuse of lying.
Is it praising a liberal?
Yes: Accurate.
No: Criticize, accuse of lying.

Not to say that infowars is an accurate news source. It isn't.[/QUOTE]
Does facepunch all think exactly alike now
'Failing to show up at a hearing over the eligibility of his birth certificate'. Is this prick for real?

Isn't that just how the PDF file format works.. They seem to think that by opening a PDF in illustrator they have opened the photoshop file.
It actually annoys me that people believe things like this. They are accusing people who if they wanted to can fake anything in a believable way fake something in a way that you could pull apart easily.
[QUOTE=MrEndangered;34450824]Faze must be a liberal. Nobody who's a genuinely concerned conservative would make themselves look so stupid.[/QUOTE]
lol what
so all those conservatives rattling on about obama's birth certificate, or secret muslims, or fema death camps, those are all actually liberals?
[QUOTE=Croix;34452352]I don't really get the birthers argument. He showed his birth certificate, what the hell do they have to say to that?[/QUOTE]
He's black. They'll do all that's humanly possible to make his presidency seem illegitimate.
[QUOTE=MrEndangered;34450824]Faze must be a liberal. Nobody who's a genuinely concerned conservative would make themselves look so stupid. Faze, marine, Uber and glaber ruin the right-wing reputation (Which suits me, but hey). I wish we had more Emperor Scorpius's.[/QUOTE]
Lmao, so the new way to defend conservatives is to claim that they're actually liberals in disguise?

Yes yes it is. I tried pointing that out and got my youtube account blocked from the channel.

As I said it makes my blood boil, but nothing you can do about it, they're called the "exhaust fumes of democracy" for a reason.
fucking christ my home state needs to get it together
I think it's good that Obama didn't participate in the court.
If I were him, I would have just laughed at their stupid accusative asses.

Walk in.
Laugh hardily.
Walk out.
How is this even a case? I knew the american public wasn't too smart, but their judges are also retarded?
He showed his certificate, it was real, move on you racist fucks.
