Just leave people to choose to be anonymous or named. Both have value.

its a tricky thing to handle tho ... its not like you can just "#fakenews" an article... for example the thing with pewdiepie .. he DID have hitler in some of his videos, he did have the death to jews sign... but the media took it all seriously and out of context... its like... partial truths, without any specific lies

and all that might happen, is they get more clever about only telling truths but still out of context

remember that british journalist that said "gas..." live on camera?

What'a context?

i think that are those thingies you put in your eyes if you don't want to wear glasses

I believe his exact statement/question was "gas the jews 23 times?"

something like that, yes. i mean... he also stated* that context is irrelevant, so... (*or did not agree with the opposite... same difference)

@Deadpool If the guys in the grooming gang not only have no issue with going to jail, but often try to go to jail, then Tommy risking their court case isn't really a valid concern is it? It would be more of a punishment for them if they didn't go to jail, that is what Tommy was pointing out. The fact that they groom/rape people and enjoy the opportunity to recruit in jail is the problem, the problem is definitely not that Tommy may have jeopardise them going to jail, the problem is that they are allowed to remain in the country

Idk, I guess I just don’t really care what The Knife’s motives are. What I really care about is how good the work is, and from what I’ve seen of the Knife I haven’t seen anything bad just yet

everyone has a motive

even subconscious

as long as it's true, does it matter who's mouth it comes out of, really?

fact checking assumed, of course, but if it's actually factually (heh) true.. it shouldn't matter the source, regardless of the motive

peple are driven to "win"

motives often fall onto emotional victory over their enemy or resource gain

completing goals triggers a dopamine response

then you have the sub category of goals

Some people have nothing left to accomplish. No hobbies, fat bellies, so they get their release from beating enemies

From May 2017. The writer gives an account of what it was like to apply for a job with The Knife.

i dont know if cult fits what they are

maybe secret, but not a secret, society

though im nto surprised the M cult stuff formed out of this group

SM cult*

Interesting read @possumsquat93

You know Charles Mansions cult sprung out of another cult called The Process Church of the Final Judgement. This isn’t exactly unprecedented.

Factual truth is all I really care about when it comes to news. While you'll never going to fully eliminate bias from news, since you automatically create bias by choosing to cover one thing over another, the Knife's done a good job painting objective & largely neutral fact based reporting on issues

They have. I was really impressed with how they covered the Google Memo event. I read and archived dozens of articles from the MSM unfairly covering the memo. The Knife media’s synopsis of this event was perfect.

the knife people alleged that the stories are all fake news meant to damage their organization and that NXIVM is about helping people break out of bias

so they may have started the Knife as a way to combat news they didnt think was fair or accurate

the knife seems fine on the surface but dont let that coax you into joining a cult if thats what they really are

I honestly don't really know anything about NXIVM aside from all this crap I keep seeing about the girl from Smallville

I also don't really care about it. If people wanna willingly join a cult go nuts. Cults aren't my thing, I had enough of them after 12 years of Catholic school

Zing

everyone is all pissed about ICE now sharing photos from Obama admin

wtf

Ive been complaining about oabam before it was cool

Lmao

I didn't really intend that as a zing. I legitimately believe all religions are cults. They're just socially acceptable cults

What's this about ICE photos? Photos of what?

Photos of kids caged in internment camps
