• Hannity tells probe witnesses to "delete your emails" and "acid wash your HDD".

It's both. The whole point of this kind of vague semi-ironic kind of language is so that a person can say what they mean, but they have an 'out' so that if anybody crticises them they, or their supporters, can say 'what they really meant was...'. However, their actual supporters hear what is actually meant by the statement and become further radicalized because their unpopular views are being legitimized by a mainstream television programme. One meaning is meant for the first group, the literal meaning, and another meaning, the subtext, is meant for the later.
You know what Hillary and none of her associates did when she was in hit water? Jokingly say that they should destroy evidence while giving details on how to do it after seriously talking at length about how the FBI shouldn't be trusted. This is because idiots could misconstrue that as instructions. I liked it better when the whitest kids you know did it. https://youtu.be/QEQOvyGbBtY
Sure did. By ignoring everything inconvenient to your argument or writing it off as a nonissue despite having it explained to you why it is in fact an issue.
What did I ignore?
Try rereading the thread. I'd rather not take up a huge chunk of the page going over it for you.
Clearly we disagree on whether I skipped anything. I'm happy to be shown that I'm wrong. Go ahead and link to the posts if you don't want to present the arguments themselves.
People mentioned the things you ignored. Multiple times. The only time you even acknowledged that they pointed that out you immediately wrote it off as a nonissue despite it clearly not being a nonissue. They then proceeded to explain to you why it was not a nonissue. To which you ignored it. Why would I waste my time doing your work for you?
The only thing I can think about is BDA insisting that because Hannity has done bad stuff in the past, then he must be doing something beyond the normal interpretation in this case. Is that what you're referring to? I believe that's the only thing I said was irrelevant to the point.
As opposed to you who just pretends it can be changed. But no, that's not it. Like I said there were multiple things. I'd actually try to debate you rather than just call you out on your bullshit but as nearly everyone here is aware, that's just a waste of time. If I honestly thought you would address things then I would consider spending the time gathering the info you failed to address except you won't. People have done it in the past and it always goes ignored every single time.
If you have zero intention of actually interacting with me, then why are you here? To stroke your own ego for saying how bad you think I am? Do you want applause from those who also dislike me?
No, I'm calling you out on your bullshit in the idealistic hope that you'll either stop or learn your lesson and not be an intellectually dishonest drain on the forums.
You know what? can we realistically look at this thread and say that I'm the drain here? I've consistently responded to those who disagreed with me by presenting real arguments and evidence from the video in question. I've presented an extremely moderate view that even a number of those who hate Hannity agreed with in this case. What have you contributed? Literally nothing. You came in, called me out, refused to clarify when asked, and continued to insulted me. Great. What a wonderful contribution to this thread and the forum.
How can you be this bad at reading? Every bit of my criticism was that you failed to do exactly what you're claiming here. And others have pointed it out repeatedly in the thread as well. Not going to waste my time addressing the rest because that's your typical runaround garbage trying to worm out of actually addressing anything.
Anyone else seeing the humor in Sgman accusing other people of contributing nothing and refusing to interact on a meaningful level?
Not to mention getting irritated at someone avoiding his point despite doing the same shit himself constantly.
Honestly Sgman has embarrassed himself enough times I'm assuming he's a parody account or this is all satire or something. Like a very long performance art piece.
Actually though, SGMan does have one valid point: from what I saw of the video, Hannity wasn't actively calling for people directly to destroy evidence. HOWEVER, what kind of moron who would want people to do such a thing would blatantly call for them to do so on national TV? Granted Hannity's not the brightest tractor in the drawer, but if he DID want to send a sort of "SOS" to anyone involved so that they would know shit's about to hit the fan (either as a result of him having inside info or simply him knowing that the noose is really starting to tighten), then making a sort of "suggestion" like this on TV would be the way to do it. Whether or not this is the case I can't say for certain, but considering his potential involvement in all of this, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn that this is what's going on.
"I've tried sending people on a fruitless semantics goosechase and got called out for it, now I pretend that I was the only one with arguments while ignoring all other points made so far Also I am 'above' of being called out, checkmate lefties" Yeah, sure dude.
I distinctly remember him arguing that libtard wasn't offensive but reactionary was on one occasion. I still think that's absurd.
The same sort of moron who would defend the innocence of his lawyer while not disclosing the fact that they were his lawyer.
This is just bizarre - you have a company really trying to make sure you don't mistake their most prominent personality as someone you can hold accountable. What the fuck.
And Hannity said it three times, not just once. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/politics/wp/2018/06/07/hannitys-phone-smashing-rhetoric-heads-in-a-different-direction/
"But guys what if he's just a sort of awkward dork who repeats the same shitty joke until people realize he's joking so they can start laughing, right guys? RIGHT GUYS?!"
I was concerned I was entirely misremembering this because of being really drunk or something but a not insignificant number of people agreed with me on this so it must have happened. 2018 has thrown so many inscrutable opinions at me I have trouble keeping up.
It's a lot like this video https://youtu.be/qhWCk2f2alI Wouldn't hold up at all because he's implying that it should still be done despite potential legal implications
Your memory does not fail you, he has stated exactly what you stated he did. Definition of libtard (from google): "a person with left-wing political views." So insulting!!!
Are you actually blind? I used the dictionary definition as a joke because that's what he was doing. My god you guys can be dense. Like, I know you enjoy calling me an idiot and like, and whatever, I learned to ignore it a long time ago, but at least try a tiny bit. Here's my clarification literally two posts later: The point is that it doesn't mean that. Those trying to go back to the previous state of German government as opposed to Nazism would never be described as reactionary. In fact, I bet most on the left would have described Nazism as reactionary. My entire point was that both "reactionary" and "libtard" didn't fit their dictionary definitions in a political context.
Glass houses, my dude.
Come on man, at least try. People wouldn't be shitting all over you if you actually attempted something at least remotely resembling intellectual integrity. The issue is you don't though. And you've basically become Tudd 2.0 because everyone sees you as a total joke with no credibility at this point. I'll reiterate what I said to you a year or two ago: It is your responsibility to make sure you're understood properly. If what you're saying results in stuff like this maybe it's time to reconsider the way you say shit. You previously tried claiming it wasn't your responsibility and look where that got you.
Honestly Tudd was more bearable than sgman, both argued the same things but at least Tudd just dropped off the map when called out on his bullshit, sgman tries to peddle some garbage how "I'm actually a moderate guys, I'm just like you, except I'm only actively defending people on the right".
