Thats gold, Jerry! Gold!

a detainee at Gitmo accusing us of torture said Desantis (a military lawyer) was laughing in his presence

[Berzerker]

sure looks like he's got a bunch of people scared, especially the war profiteers

By your logic, anything that was i) on MSNBC; and ii) is high profile; is only high profile because of a) it being on MSNBC and b) because it was the channel you watched at the time. This is demonstrably stupid.

MSNBC is where I learned about QAnon. I didn't say nobody else ever mentioned QAnon. Here is what you said:

"You are guilty of some crime (sexual predator, paedophile, etc). An accuser comes forward and you are under pressure. Hire someone to make similar but more bombastic allegations. Demonstrate their allegations are without merit or have them recant. Doubt is placed on the instances of actual crimes. Spread enough **** everywhere and no-one knows what to believe or just doesn't believe any of it - even the parts that are true."

Does QAnon serve that purpose? Might explain why Democrat media made it a national story, to intimidate and discredit the accusers by associating them with a right wing conspiracy theory.

[Berzerker]

You have a reading comprehension. It was not that that is where you got it from, but it was rather them that amplified QAnon's profile. Do keep up.

Here's what I said,

"I never heard of QAnon until Democrats made them a story."

You brought up 3 people as a rebuttal... To what? I didn't hear about QAnon from them. Did Democrat media make QAnon a national story? Yes.

[Berzerker]

Democrat media is not liberal media and yes Democrat media is where I learned about QAnon.

The experts who looked at the leak overwhelmingly identified the lab as the likely source. Multiple agencies had the same finding. Lets see your equal number of experts who disagree. Why did the CIA leaders and Tony Fauci bribe their own experts to change their opinions? Oh well, Typhoid Tony it is, kindergartners or not (would they get that double reference to Typhoid Mary and Fauci's role in creating Covid?). I'm glad you recognise the insults thrown around by Trump haters as a defense, Jesus found it handy when the Pharisees were asking him to endorse stoning an adulteress. And now for the next story, Genocide Joe is bombing the hell out of Yemen. Another holdover from the Obama's regime of terror... I mean, war on terror.

I didn't blame liberal media. I said I heard about QAnon from Democrat media and somebody brought up Hannity, Jones and Barr as if I got my news from them.

A lot of back stepping there...
Experts CAN NOT agree on the source of the Virus. FACT. Both sides raise VALID arguments, and NEITHER has been proven. FACT.
But I guess you are the only one that can determine which of the experts are right... since you have so much expertise in this area.

And yes, Typhoid Tony is a kindergartner insult... And the fact that you point to the leading user of kindergartner insults as a defense is really funny.
Plus the fact that you didn't know the picture was fake pretty much sums up how you see something on line and post it as it's real without bothering to check it out.

And while you NOW claim you don't blame liberal media for QAnon... you are the one that said... "QAnon became a national story pushed by Democrat media"
Which by the way, is total BS.

[Berzerker]

I blamed Democrat media for the QAnon narrative, they made it a national story for months if not years. Why?

[Berzerker]

The kindergartner insult was f Joe Biden, a sportscaster changed it to lets go Brandon. I like her version, its a commentary on our media kindergartners might not get. Why is Typhoid Tony a kindergartner insult? Anybody around here ever see Trump and his supporters the target of insults? Anyone, Bueller... Bueller? Where is there absolute proof for much of anything posted here? Where are your experts? We can start with the CIA's analysts, what was it, 8 of 9 said it was likely the lab before the dissenters were bribed. Tony's own people were telling him it came from a lab and they got grants to shut up. The photo came from X, I didn't know it was a fake, I do know it represents Z's predicament. I didn't blame liberal media. I said I heard about QAnon from Democrat media and somebody brought up Hannity, Jones and Barr as if I got my news from them.

[Uncle Sparky]

And I've kept you unblocked for a couple of months now, but you are just such a asshat.

I came up with Typhoid Tony on my own, but it is unfair to Mary. She didn't invent the disease in a lab, she was just immune and spread it to others. The 'experts' who looked at the virus said it had a feature not found in nature but possible with lab manipulations, ie gain of function. Recognizing narratives is easy when "everybody" is spouting the same lines, the wet market was a narrative to cover for the Wuhan lab. Jon Stewart did a bit on Stephen Colbert about it. Then he handed an award to a Nazi who covered his tattoos for the occasion, Jon being Jewish and all. Oh well, nobody's perfect. I didn't know if the photo was real, the underlying message is. Zelensky is the feckless leader of a Nazi army that mocks him.

First... creating kindergarten type insults is a Maga Thing. You also use the Brandon BS one too.
Second... there is still no absolute proof it came from a lab or a wet market. I can find you the equal number of experts who all disagree on where it came from. NOTHING has been proved. FACT.
Third... the fact that you posted the picture from one of your websites as if it was true, pretty much sums up the websites you are getting your Supposed facts from. It shows you are more than willing to believe anything they say without making the effort to check if it's actually true or not.
And last... the fact that you blame liberal media for QAnon because you heard it on MSNBC is a total joke. It was everywhere, across all types of conservative and liberal media. For you to make the assumption it's a liberal plot because YOU heard it first on MSNBC sums up how you don't bother to use multiple sources for actual facts. You seem to see something in a single totally biased place, like the Nazi picture, and assume it must be true since you saw it on the internet.

lol, its Marcia again... "Joel Finkelstein, the chief science officer and co-founder of the Network Contagion Research Institute at Rutgers University"

Guess who funds him
