content: Quote from: drussell on February 17, 2017, 03:15:44 pmIt seems to be far too common in many different fields these days to make claims which are unsubstantiated by specifications or facts.TheTRUTHandFACTSsomehow become subjective and open to interpretation!?!!Apparently, you can just say whatever you want and call it undeniable truth. e.g:https://youtu.be/-JeVPnTD28M?t=0https://youtu.be/lHusZDjesr4?t=108I love the reaction to the total insanity and lack of truth in that second video.I haven't seen entertainment this spectacular come out of the US for many years!

content: to quote a certain button Dave has "Warning, warning, Bullshit detected."Industrial grade bullshit in those two videos.I really fear for the long term future of humanity and other life on this planet, when you have jerks like this in positions of power they don't deserve.If a meteorite is about to destroy Earth, the last thing we need is fools with money saying things like "I think it will miss" "The science isn't proven" or Trump saying "we should ration our use of Nukes, as that shits expensive".Trust needs to be earned, not fabricated or bullied into existence.

content: The best lies have an element of truth at the core.That element of truth is then blown out of all proportion and dominates the scene - burying the real facts in a layer of BS that offends those who have a grasp of the real issues.Examples are far too easy to find - and far too difficult to debunk .... until (as it happens all too frequently) the public has been well and truly suckered in.

content: I hope Trump has time to explain to Sweden what kind of terrorist attack happened in their country because the Swedish don't know. Talking about fake news!

content: I think he just likes to be the center of attention, most of the time when he's speaking I'm reminded of kids I went to school with trying to fake a book report for a book they didn't actually read. He talks around in circles without really saying much other than self promotion. It's hard to even comment on his plans because he doesn't seem to have any.

content: What's amazing is how he hasn't been assassinated yet.Maybe by some uranium, as that's "nuclear weapons" and other "bad things".

content: I sure hope that doesn't happen, that creates martyrs and invariably leaves the victim in a relatively positive light. It would only turn him into more of a hero for those who support him and his beliefs.
