benalvino3:When even ChatGPT can't correct for the fact you have no clue what you are talking about and you have the English proficiency of a 6th grader. Lol. BenalvinoChatGPT2.0, this is comedy. I think they have twitter thread of ChatGPT mishaps. I'm going to put some of these together and submit them. |
budaatum:The proof is in the pudding. Just look at the forum. Your argument is that moderators of this space can't see what you and I can, something clearly evident. The question is whether you legitimize the bigotry by remaining an active participant in it. Seun and the mods don't seem to be bothered by the extent of it for whatever reason, so why support it? It's akin to whether you shop at a retailer that is racist or do you protest with the means that you have, your wallet. |
raumdeuter:Why don't you tell me what you understand the circumstances to be and how Israel claimed ownership over it. I've posted on this before. This was a NY times headline from around that time. Please fit it into your explanation.
|
raumdeuter:How did Israel acquire the land? |
basilico:The self hating bigot speaks. |
raumdeuter:If someone takes your house and then says I'll give you 30% of it back. Would you accept. Listen, I can go to a temple, become Jewish, move to Israel and have more right to that land in that area than people who've lived there for generations. Seems fair right? |
raumdeuter:That's propaganda. Google how many Palestinians have been killed, jailed, improsend in the last 10 years in Gaza and the West Bank. Then look at the circumstances behind them. Compare that to the roughly ~1000 Jewish people killed. And ask yourself why deaths of the 1,000 Jewish people are worth more. |
budaatum:It's not the term Ipob. It's using Ipob as a pejorative for Ibo. Ex. Instead of saying "you fuckign Ibo idiot" you instead say "you fucking Ipob idiot" or "you fucking Ipob". The intent is the same. If someone wants to talk about Ipob go for it. It shouldn't give one license to use the term to denigrate all Ibos. And it's not about paying a subscription. I've been on forums that don't require a subscription to not be a cesspool of bigotry. In fact I assume this forum generates it's revenue through advertisements dollars based on the amount of users. That's a red herring. I've taught as well. You can't teach a class if you have persistent rowdy students. That's what detention/suspensions are for. If you allow the rowdy students to be rowdy, I guarantee you normalize the rowdiness, the students lose respect in you and the class descends into consistent rowdiness. |
budaatum:That was a semi joke. Meaning don't expend energy trying to understand his gibberish. Benalvino is a bigot amongst other things. And interacting with him normally normalizes his bigotry. And I think ignoring him and continuing to post normalizes that bigotry. So, I'll expose/trash him when I can. And truthfully, I have been trying to figure out whether I should be on this forum at all. I've found that the weak moderation or the decision not to moderate certain posts have created a forum where bigotry is allowed and normalized. I've been thinking about the use of the word Ibop in a derogatory manner towards Ibo people. And I think calling Ibo people Ibop in a derogatory manner is akin to a white person calling a black person Nigger. Would I stay in a forum where that is regular occurrence and unmoderated? No. So can I support a forum/vehicle that allows that to fester? |
raumdeuter:I mean, a lot. Check out the History. They obviously didn't have rockets at the time. But there was a group that believed in violent means of winning freedom. Even in the civil rights movement there was that group. We hear a lot about the nonviolent groups, but there were others. In fact your seeing the issue from the perspective of the the Israeli occupier. Go on youtube and watch some Jewish settlers talk. They talk about the extermination of Palestinians. I posted a clip here. In fact Jewish settlers have been funded by the government, given weapons by the government and defended by Israeli soldiers. In fact hear how the young people in Israel talk. Look at what this current Israeli right wing government is saying. It's some really scary stuff, because it's the government of a supposed ally. Ask yourself, if Israel doesn't see a 2 state solution, and can't let Palestinians be full citizens (w/ population growth, Palestinians may one day be more than Jewish Israelis and can then in turn change Israel), what is the plan for Palestinians? The answer is in plain sight, you just have to want to see it. |
budaatum:I haven't read the full article but I think the reasoning in that section is weak. He's combing the standards. I agree. Some may perceive impropriety, but if you base that standard throughout the Legal system where does it end? Can a Trump appointed Judge hear Trump cases. There is a more disturbing perception of impropriety. What about an ex Trump appointed Special Prosecutor, who works for a big law firm that does a lot of Work for Republicans and where a lot of Republican Judges (like Judge Cannon) are picked from who was appointed to look into whether Biden broke the law with his classified documents? Is there a perception of impropriety there? I may agree with that standard, but it should be applied consistently and fairly throughout the system. And if it were it would probably break the system as we know it. I haven't read the ruling. But I wouldn't be surprised if the Judge here assuaged/massaged the law trying to split the baby in the middle. That's what the pressure of Trump world does to the law. |
benalvino3:Well done. I am glad you understand your limitations. Would have paid admission to watch you make a fool of yourself again while trying to argue legalize with Dahilife. But I get why you think he is I, he doesn't sound like a drooling MAGA like you and your buddies. He speaks in complete sentences - Check. He makes logical Points - Check. He Sound like he's well read - Check I guess that's your way of complimenting me. lol Any fyi, you are unnecessary, anyone could have the same conversation with you if they just logged logged into ChatGPT. lol |
benalvino3:Called it. lol. He said, "I logged in to write this post to explain that I am too busy at the moment to talk about the thing you asked about." I guess it would take time for someone to find all those words in the dictionary and then learn what a precedent is. Hard to chat about something you don't understand right? Why don't you ask ChatGPT. "Hey ChatGPT, what is a legal precedent." You are by far the least educated poster in this thread, and that says a lot. |
budaatum:My point is that, him being there had no impact on the outcome of the case. She is the decider. So, for the sake of this argument he is already just and extension of her will. Better yet, he is her will. She hired him as she has an office to run and other cases as well and so couldn't prosecute the case herself. Unless my understanding is wrong, I don't see how that leads to any bias to the defense. If she were the judge, yes. A defense attorney sleeping with the Prosecutor, yes. And I think Willis may be a constitutional officer that's why the bar to remove her would be "actual conflict". So, I don't think even a dodgy judge could do so without being overturned on appeal. But this is the strength of the Right wing movement. It gets good meaning people to argue these types of higher than legal standards on one side, while judges Like Clarence Thomas and Canon exist absent of any standard. |
budaatum:I have to read the ruling, but the Judge's ruling seems to be off as well. Magas will always perceive impropriety even when none exist. You can't contort the law to take account for their baseless feelings of perpetual persecution (nice alliteration right?). I can't see how the standard for a prosecutor would be the "perception of impropriety". And in this case, Willis could have prosecuted this case herself. So how would it be unfair to the defense if she was sleeping with one of her prosecutors and telling him what to do? She could have just fired him and did it herself. I feel like there has to be something I'm missing as I haven't followed this fully. Because this whole thing doesn't make sense and seems ridiculous on its face. |
DaHighLife:That is BenalvinoChatGpt2.0. He has no real understanding of the things ChatGpt writes and he posts. He probably doesn't even understand what a precedent is, let alone talking about finding one for you. He also probably needs a dictionary to understand half the words in that post. So you can ignore the gibberish. |
DaHighLife:Will think about this more when I read the ruling. That's a good point. I can see a consensual relationship amongst co workers being an issue for an employer, but I never understood how an unqualified prosecutor, as MAGA wanted to say, could negatively affect a defendant. Have to think if the judge should have shut it down in the beginning. Do you have any instances of how other judges have handled similar? Also I wonder how the ruling would be influenced by the Judge being up for reelection. Not sure elections are the best way to choose Judges. |
DaHighLife:Thx. Will read it later this weekend. |
If you aren't following emptywheel you should be. When I first read some of her posts, I thought she was nuts. But majority of the things she wrote, cam to fruition, including this Smirnov story, how the Durham prosecution would unfold, etc. etc. Her writing is dense, but she is absolutely brilliant at breaking down legal issues. Noone is perfect, but I respect her journalism.

I told you this story is going to get worse. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/14/company-paying-fbi-informant-trump-connections

Laurene:I keep hearing this. Give me one example of abuse of the justice system and a similar comparison. In fact I think it has been the Republicans who have abused the system. So, I'll start. Hunter Biden was charged criminally for not paying his taxes on time. He has since paid them. Compare his situation with that of Trump's pal Roger Stone. Stone's situation was worse. More taxes owed, didn't pay for a longer time. He wasn't charged criminally but civilly, to get him to pay the taxes. Why were the two situations handled vastly differently? Laurene:You are Nigerian and think it is ok that Trump hired his daughter to run the RNC? One of Nigerians biggest problems is corruption and nepotism. Given how much Nigeria is struggling because of that, why would you ever be comfortable with that anywhere? |
raumdeuter:Well, you would have a point if we were a dictatorship. But we aren't. The Dems did the best they could given the divided government they had. They passed the bills they could. Look at ObamaCare and the Infrastructure package. What bill have Republicans past in the last 50 years that have made life better for the avg. American? Name one. Republicans run on obstruction (Tea Party), then nothing gets done. When nothing gets done, Fox News amplifies that the government doesn't work, blame Dems and tells people to elect more Republicans. Those Republicans continue to obstruct. Rinse repeat, while Dem presidents come in and deal with Recessions and wars and try to right the ship. And you don't have to take my word for it, just listen to conservative Ken Buck on why he is resigning. Manchin and Sinema were both corporist Dems. Manchin is from one of the poorest states yet voted against a program to give coal workers free community college educations to help them transition into newer jobs. Wouldn't that have helped his state? And Sinema was a lobbyists wet dream. Glad they are gone. You can argue about AOC, Sanders and Warren but they all have policies they have run on. What policy do any of the Republican leaders have? Show me them. Where is this health care plan Republicans have been talking about for a decade. Again you have one side who is genuinely interesting in getting things done and the other? And btw you should look up what Warren did with the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau. That agency alone changed the landscape for millions of Americans dealing with scum financial companies. As for Palestine, would you have told the Black slaves to continue to be slaves because it would save their lives.? One of my favorite speeches growing up was Patrick Henry's speech Give Me Liberty Or Give Me Death. The sentiment rings true here. And here is my favorite section, Somewhat long: "They tell us, sir, that we are weak; unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next week, or the next year? Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house? Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction? Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot? Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power. The millions of people, armed in the holy cause of liberty, and in such a country as that which we possess, are invincible by any force which our enemy can send against us. Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. Besides, sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston! The war is inevitable--and let it come! I repeat it, sir, let it come. |
Laurene:The problem is your party isn't against extreme abortion measures. That's why it's an issue. Some are talking about a Fed. abortion ban. IVF ban. Birth control ban. Pretty nutty stuff. And they are abusing the Judicial system to do so. Trump single handedly lost them a lot of seats by picking very nutty candidates like Herschel Walker. Which Republicans moderated? Trump forces everyone to ride the crazy train with him. He has taken over the RNC and put in charge his daughter. He also elevated a 2020 election denier as their Election lawyer. lol. This is Trump's party and you're either onboard with his brand of crazy or you're off the train. The amount of Republican House resignations are a sign of things to come. |
raumdeuter:I think that's both siding it. There used to be a time when sensible solutions could come in play, but since Karl Rove began planning to have a permanent minority majority and started pushing all these gerrymandered districts, the politics have become more polarized. And the Republican party has moved far right and the Dems have even moved further right. Look at Manchin, the media called him a moderate. What made him a moderate? You spoke of Romney, he was a Republican governor of Liberal Massachusetts. Which meant he would have been a moderate Democrat, well until he got on the national stage. His great idea in Mass. later turned into ObamaCare. Look what happened to that. I don't like that word "middle". What does it mean. I think the media's usage of middle and moderate is very problematic. If I want your baby and you say no, is the middle position to cut the baby in half? The reason why a lot of people get screwed is because they elect leaders intent on screwing them. Again, just look at the states with the best education, health care, economies, that give more to the Fed government then they get back, there is a clear pattern of Republican states generally at the bottom of those lists. And it comes full circle about educated voters. Quickly, -I thought the remain in Mexico policy broke the spirit of the asylum law. And it probably cost us a ton of money, because we obviously had to bribe Mexico to keep that policy. Why else would Mexico allow all those migrants to remain in their country? But that was a patch on the system. The problem was the asylum laws. You are upset about immigration but this would be the 2nd time in 20 years that a immigration bill had bipartisan support and it was scuttled because of Republicans. The first time was under Bush. You are asking why things don't work, look no further than the Republican party. -As to the Abraham accord, the Biden administration did try to build on it. That was a mistake. Who would have thought that in order to find a resolution between two parties, both parties have to engage. The Abraham accord tried to go around the Palestinians by basically economically bribing Israel's Arab neighbors. If you were a Palestinian would you have been ok with that? It reeked of more colonialism. |
Laurene:Abortion's just not an issue that people will forget. Roe v. Wade touched on issues like IVF and even birth control. And unfortunately for Republicans people like having sex. And the draconian laws and stories resulting from the overturning are nuts. In some states a 13 y.o. girl who is raped by say her uncle, must deliver the baby and to make matters worse, if/when the uncle gets out of jail he can get parental custody of that child. Nuts. Also there was a story of a woman who needed and abortion to remove a fetus that wouldn't survive birth and delivering that baby could cause life threatening issues for her. Texas wouldn't allow her to so she had to leave the state to do it. Nuts. As to Youngkin, that was pre Roe v Wade ruling. So, you're making my point about abortion. |
Trump went to the basilico school of Technology.

benalvino3:Just make me 60. It'll make a better narrative for you. You know you and those stories and lies you depend on. I hail thee BenalvinoChatGPT. Takes a certain kind of person to know their deficiencies and to try to make them better. Some would have just taken an English class though. |
benalvino3:This guy really owned the fact that he can't conjugate a verb, so now he's outsourced it to ChatGPT. He got tired of sounding like the least educated person in this thread. lol. The problem for you is that ChatGpt still can't think for you. So, your writing sounds like a child who is just throwing around big words. Benalvino, here is your pre BenalvinoChatGPT self with some sage advice written in your iconic non-conjugating writing style. bemeruca:The days of the dictionary talk. lol. Where is BraniacX. This guy really turned to ChatGPT to sound like me.. lol. |
raumdeuter:I gotta admit, most of your post was surprisingly rational. Surprising from what I usually read from a lot of other "conservatives" here. I think you said something unwittingly though. The appeal of Trump to his supporters is that he is not a real hardcore conservative, He is very much pro life, pro LGBT, Don't forget he lived in New York all his life. He is anti war unlike most Republicans While speaking to the heart of what many middle class people care about which is Economy stupiddIn fact the appeal of Trump is that he is whatever his voters want him to be. To some, he is what you spoke of and to others the 2nd coming of Christ. The real question is that outside of speaking about these things like the Economy, what did he ever do to actually make it work for the people that voted for him? We've had close to 4 years to go over his policies. Can you name 1 that was economically effective? In fact outside of judges that the Federalist society and McConnell were largely responsible for what did he do? And one more quibble as some conservatives seemed to have blocked out 2020. People, a lot of people did in fact die under Trump. And people are still dying because of the mentality he ushered in. Look at what is going on with the measles, a diseases that was once thought eradicated in the US. So, no "Trump will kill you" were not just scare tactics. |
Laurene:There's a lot that's wrong in this post. But the bolded part alone renders the rest of your post mute. Abortion will be one of the biggest drivers/issues this election. Check the crosstabs from every special election since Roe vs. Wade was overturned. It drives women and men who care about their daughters. And this recent IVF ruling in Alabama and the upcoming Abortion pill hearing in the US Supreme Court will drive it more. That's why Alabama rushed to put out a new law making IVF legal. In fact the polls have consistently underestimated how big of an issue it has been as it has underestimated the wins in the midterms and these special elections. |
benalvino3:This guy tried to pass off a post he wrote using ChatGPT as his own. You can tell he grabbed sections from it and combined them with his own words as it was still a grammatical mess. Then when he got called out, is now trying to pretend it was all a rouse to troll people. Phonies will always be phonies. |
benalvino3:Ladies and Gentleman, meet ChatGpt Benalvino. He couldn't conjugate verbs so he went to AI. ahahahahahahahah I'm dead. The nuts in this thread. |
