@Pady_oFurniture @TadeuszBorowski @AnnaPembroke @pritipatel @UKLabour Talk about hypocrisy!

THAT is some turning of the truth!!!

So he didn't have a visa for the *#USA*

And used someone else's real passport

Yet *#WE* prosecuted him

The point you are "rebutting" is how many illegal immigrants to *#THIS* country do "#WE" prosecute FOR THE SAME?!

@TadeuszBorowski @AnnaPembroke @pritipatel @UKLabour We don't prosecute people entering THIS country using a relatives passport "accidentally"

We don't prosecute people for ADMITTEDLY DELIBERATELY entering THIS country without the right passport to "test" the system

In fact #Channel4akeNews had a whole programme (series?) of it!

@TadeuszBorowski @AnnaPembroke @pritipatel @UKLabour Was anyone at or on the #Channel4 programme prosecuted for illegally entering the country

Attempting it

Or aiding & abetting it

And that's ON TOP of the THOUSANDS of illegal immigrants who illegally enter the country without the correct or even ANY legal travel documents

@TadeuszBorowski @AnnaPembroke @pritipatel @UKLabour Or through correct legal entry points

Illegal immigrants don't just enter country without correct or any travel documents

Many (most?) don't go through customs or passport control

And not only do they not get prosecuted for it

The "liberal" left insist it's not a crime either

@TadeuszBorowski @AnnaPembroke @pritipatel @UKLabour Similarly the "liberal" left in US insist if you enter US illegally it's not a crime

But also dispute authorities claim any illegal immigrant trying to get through immigration hasn't "entered" the USA yet & so not entitled to US constitutional rights

AIUI #TommyRobinson hadn't
This sounds insane and yet it's pretty much what happened.


If we're being extremely sober-minded about this, in a tight election there's always multiple causes and movements are caused by a complex interplay of factors etc etc.

But it's also true a far right tumor grew within gamer communities and


To me the big mystery of 2016 is always going to be how did Trump, who has no redeeming characteristics, get a perfectly normal number of votes? Why did multiple parts of our political immune system fail? A large part is that the GOP qua Party was weaker than we thought.

Gamergate and its spawn did a couple things to the immune system. It directly stressed it by creating a dangerous identity in a way it turns out it could not handle, and it revealed flaws that other bad actors took advantage of.

If you time-traveled and you eliminated Eron Gjoni before he hit "publish" would Donald Trump still be elected in 2016? I honestly don't think so, because it was such a close election. But the dominoes would still be in a place for a different trigger that could have happened.
@johnkoetsier @LarryRosenthal @John_Westra True, but I only get 140 characters at a time and I’m trying to cover a lot.

“The media” meaning the primary outlets of information and opinion in America: news, TV shows, movies, magazines. Nearly all follow and promote whatever the dominant cultural values are at the moment.

@LarryRosenthal @John_Westra It used to be that there was civility in the media. But that came from a more civil society, where traditionally correct behavior was deemed important. That’s been erased by modernism. Today political correctness has replaced civility, and the media parrots that instead.

@LarryRosenthal @John_Westra The moral distortion becomes evident when you read the words Trump speaks. Consider what he might be referring to without PC bias, and then watch how those media outlets speak about those same words. The presumption of guilt starts, fills and ends nearly every message.

@LarryRosenthal @John_Westra Charlottesville is a perfect example. “There were good people on both sides” was entirely referring to those for and against removal of statues - NOT about “good white supremacy”
or “good Antifa counter-protesters”. He clarified this exact point at the time. That’s the “truth”.

@LarryRosenthal @John_Westra But to this day that’s not what the “media” gave to the world to chew on, now is it? Instead there is the deliberate and persistent lie that he meant to defend white supremacy because that narrative sells better to a PC public: half of America now thinks he’s a racist for sure.
