He was being hyperbolic. Then you made it literal.

Well, in Number5 mode those sort of errors will be exploited. And to be accurate, I did not literally call him a "baby killer". I speculated that perhaps some babies may have been killed, in a clearly hyperbolic manner.

More seriously I think this relates to a question which I asked Lucifer and was not answered. It may be a question you prefer to just disagree on and not discuss, which is fine.

But it does strike me that to claim that even literally saying "Number7 is a baby killer" in Number5 mode is somehow unjust or unfair requires one to assume that either he doesn't deserve that sort insult or that he is a veteran who should be afforded some respect. Would you argue that his behavior is becoming of a veteran and so deserves respect?

But, not to speak for him, I like to think it’s because we are almost completely aligned on our positions regarding the world.
Yes, he does not seem capable of processing or responding civilly to even the slightest degree of disagreement. I don't know what Becky's experience as a woman has been if disagreeing with him.

But the baby killer thing is stooping below his level.

OK, but I didn't bring up the baby killer thing. He did. I don't know why exactly. But since he brought it up I thought it interesting to probe that.

Also nit picky disagreement about him abusing every poster here. I don’t recall him ever abusing me. Not even once.

True. I suspect it may be some sort of thing about not attacking women. He has mentioned that before regarding another poster.

Now that's going too far. I was against the Vietnam War back when I was a teenaged hippie but I always HATED people calling our guys "baby killers".  Or dissing the vets in any manner at all. Most of them didn't ask to go and I'm not judging a combat vet for anything whatsoever when I nor anybody at home has first clue what it's like over there, and even as a stupid idiot teenager I understood that much.

Rush, I have to disagree. These comments are delivered in Number5 mode and clearly labelled as such. This is a special mode for Number7 and are a direct response to his abuse. They are roughly proportional.

He deserves it after his 9 years of abusing every poster here. Are you seriously proposing that there is something wrong with tit for tat under the circumstances?

It has also been made perfectly clear to him that it will stop as soon as he behaves civilly. It is totally up to him.

… unless you have some proof that I am a baby killer, or uneducated, that is.

Number5. Is this a sign of a developing memory impairment? Geez, you can't even get the insults straight.

I called you a "paid killer", not a "baby killer". But I suppose you may have killed some babies in Vietnam, unavoidable collateral damage you know.

It is true that Lucifer said you are veteran. Are you denying that now? Do tell. We are all anxious to hear you witness to the truth!

Spin Zone / Under oath True the Vote claims to have no evidence in GA case

lol.  What do I say I am?
If you are talking about me, my politics are a lot like yours.  I'm just not an asshole about it.
It is sort of weird isn’t it? I would have to say I agree with 95+% of Number7’s actual positions. It is as though he has some strange need to antagonize and attack every single poster here. Over the years this has included virtually everyone that I would characterize as being highly liberty oriented.

I don’t think we know enough about him to really say what the cause is. Obviously there are a few brain illnesses that tend to result in this sort of behavior but one can’t diagnose without more information. Perhaps we will be learning more in the future.

I believe this was his study in PNAS. In response that journal then instituted a special review for any paper dealing with race.

We had a paper there which we finally got through review after two years which was then sent to this special review and rejected for basically trivial excuses.

Most of the people who previously published fMRI papers on race have basically stopped.

Some questions for @Lucifer.

I think Little Joe brings up an interesting point. You have stated that Number7 is a veteran. How do you know that?

And do you think he reflects well upon veterans in general and thus deserves any respect for that?

38
See how easy that is!  I have no reason to post my real name and there is no reason anyone would care about me anyway.  But I don't lie about what I have done so there is no need to provide proof.

...

I have no respect whatsoever for N7 and I don't believe he ever served anything except perhaps a sentence.

You also have not engaged in a 9 year long string of endless abuse of other posters. Thus you do not appear to need to hide behind a pseudonym.

39
I don’t think Little Joe is expecting any special respect due to private aspects which he has not disclosed.

On the topic of the walking thru an airport with a weapon guaranteed to get you arrested is clearly an act of desperation to get attention.

What is next, sneaking into a Trump campaign event with a fake pipe bomb to get people to notice you?

Pretend kidnapping of nursery school children?

Pretending to be a lesbian to get noticed?
None of the above.

I had actually been there previously with an AR-15 and was not arrested, so the assumption about guaranteed is clearly incorrect. It is perfectly legal in Arizona to do so. That in and of itself tends to illustrate the absurdity of the TSA.

Public protests are of course intended in some sense to garner attention for a political purpose. That is their nature. It is one general tool to try and effect political change. Other major tools to effect such changes are political, such as running for political office (which also requires attracting attention) and legal battles. All of these can be useful.

  I’m a veteran.  I find it disgusting when anyone starts smearing vets. 

 You’re not fooling anyone.

Well that is mostly civil. Do you find it disgusting if someone attacks a particular veteran and it is very clear it is a particular attack directed at one specific individual for something that person did?

It strikes me that reasonably one would have to assume either that the particular person didn't deserve it or alternately that all veterans are due some certain level of respect which would preclude making such an attack even if potentially deserved.

Spin Zone / Number 5 mode again

His pathetic attacks on veterans are just one of the many ways his mask slips.

Number 5 - "Right. You cover your intolerance and disrespect fo other view points with bullshit. Congratulations."

Ah yes, the brilliant "unmasking hypothesis". Delivered without any apparent recognition of the irony of delivering a 9 year train of abuse trying to mask ones identify by using a pseudonym.

But even that mask continues to develop holes.

43
Don’t try to twist this.  I’m using YOUR words.  Your inherent disdain for veterans is abhorrent and disgusting.  You can try to deflect this on N7, but it comes from you.

 You’re nothing but a little Rambo wannabe thinking you are so cool walking around with an AR15 at an airport.  Truth be known, if you were in a real combat situation like a veteran endured you would be shitting and pissing yourself while crying for mommy. 

 Keep it up little man.  You’ve revealed your true self here.

Are you going to need to be treated similarly Lucifer?

You seem to be unable to distinguish between someone receiving abuse as retribution for their abuse and my more normal civil treatment of you. Your choice how you want to be treated.

Why do you think these insults apply to you?

Imagine, even if they gave me an app to read the QR code, it doesn't preclude encoding two results in the code so the app they let me have only shows the printed results while the results they want are what the scanner tallies.  Can you see how this is not secure in the least?

You are right, I don't think what they are presently doing is particularly secure or using cryptographically secure voting.

Those systems are essentially using cryptography to ensure that you can check with a high level of certainty that your vote was counted but noone else can know how you as an individual voted. These systems have been designed and tested but not used, so far as I know.

Go do the research.  Almost 4 years ago there was massive research on the Georgia issue that exposed the problems.   And you are wrong about it not changing the outcome.

Maybe. But I haven't seen good evidence of that despite some looking at this issue (I have of course been more interested in Maricopa County since I live there). I thought the Heartland Institute report might be a good overview though am skeptical after having been disappointed by prior supposed proofs of fraud. It seems noone here has read it yet and is able to comment on it.

  You tend to deflect away from other election issues and focus on select ones to make your point.   The Arizona 2022 election was a clusterfuck with many irregularities.  The undersized ballots being placed in heavy conservative districts comes to mind as one of them.

You are correct that in my postings I will tend to focus on this issues that make my point. I suspect however that in actual analysis I am quite able to objectively consider the evidence on both sides of an issue.

Agreed the Maricopa election was a mess. It was obviously so on election day. Thus I initially shared the concerns about fairness and security. My primary concerns about security were more than addressed by the massive re-examination effort which failed to show fraudulent ballots being enough to change the outcome.

In terms of fairness I remain concerned, at least in terms of perception of fairness, with the changes to rules for signature verfication which were implemented by Hobbs as well as her supervising an election in which she was a candidate. While Kari Lake did raise those issues in her lawsuit, alas, she had filed them too late and only after she lost so they were time barred.
