Re: Georgia vs Russia miniwar or why you shouldnt trust your TV

Mediacritic,

Thanks for the posts.
I recently came up with some similar theories about Press bias and propaganda.
Not because i had the information you posted, but based on the information that was severely lacking from our media.

I do not know if I believe the extent of your claims, but a lot of it makes sense.
I am very concerned about all of it.

btw i think you misunderstood the moderation.
The only thing wrong with your post is that it was in the wrong section.

I hope that you will continue posting and also would like to know where you are from.

This is correct. I also enjoyed the post but it was placed in the wrong forum. The thread was moved but no penalty points were given.

Re: Georgia vs Russia miniwar or why you shouldnt trust your TV

Perhaps someone should read this to Governor Palin, since according to her the Russian invasion was "unprovoked" and could lead to war with the U.S. if there is another unprovoked attack. Perhaps we should elect people to office that actually know something about the World?

I guess it is too late, you already spoke your heart and acted according to your heartily convictions.

What a shame for DP to loose a poster who can do a research and who can debate on a level slightly higher than ‘’I don't care what facts and reasons are.’’

Thank you for making it happen, - hanging on little technicalities. I don't remember anybody who was issued a warning for mistakenly posting on a wrong threat, especially when one is a newcomer with all good intentions and an interesting post.


Not to say more…

I think it's obvious that Mediacritic was here for this one thread. While I enjoyed the post, I doubt we would have giotten much more out of Mediacritic. If Mediacritic can't handle having his thread moved, I doubt he would have lasted long anyway.

Your constant attacks on Tashah are unwarranted and nothing more than sour grapes. Get over it.

You think he is like you and has the same level of comprehension of reality, - neither him nor I have any problems with having his thread moved, it is not what would ever make us disgusted.

They are unwarrantied because you say so. In difference from you attacking me right now and right here throwing red herring I never attack anybody, the more constantly. I always lay down reasons and arguments and avoid logical fallacies and unwarranted fantasies like "it's obvious that Mediacritic was here for this one thread."
If you could notice I did not address Tashah only, why are you making it like it is only Tashah? ''I don't care about any of this'' - was explicetly pointed by me - to outline that Tashah had alikes.

Obviously you are upset. That's why you felt the need to comment on the thread being moved.

I'm not attacking you.

You quoted Tashah's post and gave no indication that your comments were for anyone else. I appreciate your need to backpedal now, but I have noticed your attitude towards her in other threads as well. When in a hole, stop digging.

Things that happened only facilitated your being on DP and your thinking ''I don't care about any of this'' to be appreciated by those who are alike.

Obviously I made no comments ''on the thread being moved'' whatever it is intented to mean.

Obviously you don't care to read niether the threat nor my post when you claim ''no indication that your comments were for anyone else.''

Obviuosly I have no need to back pedal, nor I have shown any indication of such a need.

Obviously, if you noticed in other threats something you disagreed with, nothing should prevent you from arguing my partivcular statements on the given threats rather than making your unwarranted assumptions here with no refernce to any context. Obviously it is not obvious to you.

Obviously you think that you have nailed me and I am in a hole. Obviously you perceive reality differently.

So you keep on attacking me disregarding any reality.

Is my attitude to Tashah any different from my attitude to you, physiology aside?
