“ FCC shuts down Alex Jones flagship radio station” by Jacqueline Thomsen on The Hill

The FCC finned a Pirate radio station for operating without a license. They aired Infowars among other shows. This wasn’t run by Alex Jones in any way. The media is falsely associating this with Alex Jones.

“ At Def Con, children show how easy it can be to hack an election “ by Eric Brackett on Yahoo News

This contest, sponsored by the DNC, gave young hackers direct access to a voting machines. These machines are not online, and are constantly watched, so this is already an unlikely event. Even with this unlikely access, all they were able to do was make it play music and display a simple animation. They also failed to hack a well secured replica of a voter registration website. The media is focused on the success hacking of replicas of government websites that display voter totals to the public. Something of little importance. This whole event is DNC propaganda.

Paper ballots ftw

2018-08-16 17:29:52 UTC  

A lot of the current voting machines are easily compromised due to poor manufacturing standards

2018-08-16 17:30:15 UTC  

Because they want to be cheap

2018-08-16 17:30:45 UTC  

But then they charge shit loads for districts to buy

2018-08-16 17:31:21 UTC  

Machines are designed to be rigged.

2018-08-16 17:31:45 UTC  

Votes in my state are done via paper ballots and the only electronic aspect is the counting machine

2018-08-16 17:32:48 UTC  

So poll workers in my state are the only people with access to people’s voter info and the counter

2018-08-16 17:33:56 UTC  

It may not be as Streamlined but it’s def less risky where I live

2018-08-16 19:33:36 UTC  

If hackers could easily rig the elections, then why hasn’t the hacker 4Chan done it yet. Checkmate Athiests

2018-08-16 19:37:14 UTC  

They can’t. @Crimsom That event gave hacker direct physical access to the voting machines, and they couldn’t do shit. Online hackers can’t effect the machines because they aren’t online.

2018-08-16 19:38:30 UTC  

Not that I have a problem with paper ballots

2018-08-16 19:38:35 UTC  

I know, it was a joke.

2018-08-16 19:39:51 UTC  

Yeah, I got that. Just saying.

2018-08-16 20:06:43 UTC  

The 4Chan must not be Russian. The hunt continues!

2018-08-16 22:10:27 UTC

2018-08-16 22:10:38 UTC

2018-08-16 22:12:39 UTC

2018-08-17 00:22:20 UTC  

How much longer til deep fake dead celebrity becomes more of a thing?

2018-08-17 10:17:59 UTC  

The "Couple Goes to Middle East To Prove Evil Isn't Real" video on the Timcast* channel is entirely fake news. I'm really surprised he didn't look into it more.
They kept a blog here: http://www.simplycycling.org/
They never said any of the quotes about evil not being real, they didn't set out to tour the middle east to prove humans are good.
They quit their jobs to spend a couple of years cycling around the world because they love cycling. They worked for 7 years to be able to afford it.

At no point in their blog do they cream about the goodness of people, in fact they detail problems they had with locals always asking them to stop for photographs and how they had to ask people continually to leave them alone. They just wanted to cycle, and Tim seems to have blindly gone along with the article as-written without putting in literally the two minutes it takes to skim their blog, which you can find by googling their names.

There's no ideological language used, there's no highlighting of the brave, good people they meet along the way. It's just a group of friends cycling, because that's what they loved doing and it's disgusting to see so many people cheering their deaths because of what they 'probably believed'.
100% fake news.

2018-08-17 10:23:18 UTC  

@Timcast I've been a fan for a long time, please consider looking into that cyclist story again, because the version shared is really inaccurate.
The video's comments are a huge circle jerk of self-righteous hatred for dead people who aren't even cold yet, based on opinions they never shared or even demonstrably held.

2018-08-17 11:07:11 UTC  

We gotta take news ourselves

2018-08-17 11:07:33 UTC  

They're still dumb as shit for biking through these countries, though

2018-08-17 11:34:04 UTC  

Snopes seems to suggest that this "evil" story comes from the Pluralist.com on 15th of August.
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/millenial-couple-isis-tajikistan/
However, they fail to mention that The New York Times wrote a similar quote about evil on the 7th of August: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/07/world/asia/islamic-state-tajikistan-bike-attack.html

2018-08-17 11:36:10 UTC  

The author of the NYT article also (co)authored this article: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/30/world/asia/tajikistan-attack-cylists.html

2018-08-17 12:33:09 UTC  

""badness exists… by and large, humans are kind. Self-interested sometimes, myopic sometimes, but kind. Generous and wonderful and kind. No greater revelation has come from our journey than this.""

2018-08-17 12:33:41 UTC  

so I think pluralist skewed it in that they claimed people being good is what they learned

2018-08-17 12:33:45 UTC  

not that they wanted to prove it

2018-08-17 12:46:38 UTC  

Here’s a TYT video where they pretend the Pirate radio station that was finned and shut down is a part of Alex Jones’s operation. This radio station played other things besides Infowars, and Alex had no part in it. Fake News.

2018-08-17 12:54:52 UTC  

why would TYT make Jones seem bigger than he is?

2018-08-17 12:54:56 UTC  

i really don't get this

2018-08-17 13:07:20 UTC  

They want to make their victory seem greater by making their foe seem stronger. And the message is also that 'our reach isn't limited to the internet'.

2018-08-17 13:21:34 UTC  

which ironically increases the people listening to jones because they go "wow, he has that much reach? wtf he saying?"

2018-08-17 13:21:50 UTC  

they are going to ban tyt soon too
