If the voting process is found to have been manipulated in order to select the winner is that still a democracy?

It could be disqualifying depending on the level of manipulation.  Most Authoritarian governments operate behind a charade of democracy where the leader has full control of their version of the 3 American branches of government - and thus the election.

Would it be a good idea for America to acknowledge that the position of president can be chosen by means other than the votes of it's citizens guiding electoral votes for the popular candidate?  That's the question.  While part of me thinks we should always fight for the truth, at some point you have to realize that fighting for the truth can do a lot of collateral damage to the landscape.  People will likely believe what they want to believe anyway, so you have to ask yourself if the juice is worth the squeeze.  At this point, I'm not sure.  Even if Trump is right, is proving it the right thing to do for the country?  Looking behind the curtain doesn't always lead to a free hot air balloon ride to Kansas.

It's already been acknowledged and I think that's fine since the President is not the ruler/king of the country, he just (temporarily) controls one of the three equal branches of government.  What's unfolded over the past month really highlights how vital the separation of power and those checks and balances are between the 3 branches.

If you can find a 'conspiracy theory' there then be a good guy and point it out.   It seems like you are just conditioned to say 'conspiracy theory' at anything which you are (also by conditioning) uncomfortable with.  e.g., reality.


How about the part where the 'Corona World Order', led by Bill Gates, will lead to a technocratic enslavement grid and global tyranny.

Dude!  Corbett is so through that he even provides a transcript of his show.  It's a simple matter of Ctrl-F to see that the string 'Corona World Order' does not appear.  You've pulled this straight out of your ass.

Fair enough.  I don't enter through 'podinstall.com', whatever that is.  Seems that that someone choose to phrase things that way on that platform.

I try to enter sites though a producer's website if they have one so I can maintain an understanding of what the content producer themselves are saying.  Often I do go out in search of other people's impressions of a content producer's material.  Honest producers will maintain an open comments section where coherent critique of the content can be discussed.

I will say that whoever did describe a thesis coming out of Corbett's work as the 'podinstall.com' people publish are WELL justified in doing so after evaluating the content of this piece and various others such as:  https://www.corbettreport.com/gates/



It's the episode title, which is included with the summary when you upload your podcast to various feeds.

If he really did win, he sure fucked up by telling lie after lie after lie about this election Election.  (And the 2016 Election.  And all the stuff in between.)  


If Biden will become POTUS, then the following will happen (it is known, the Democrats don't hide these goals):
1. two more states will be added, Puerto Rico and DC, so four more Democrat senators, for a comfortable Senate majority.
2. SCOTUS will be packed, meaning that the total number of Justices will be 13, and the 4 new Justices will be obviously Democrat.
3. the Electoral College will be terminated, POTUS will be elected by direct vote.
4. citizenship will be granted to ~22 million illegal immigrants, leading to effectively one-party-rule.

The Republicans will very likely keep control of the Senate, making 1, 2, and 3 extremely unlikely unless the Democrats take it during the midterms. Bet even if all those things happened, it wouldn't mean all of the sudden the Democrats would all get along and the Republicans would have no power...there would be more elections, things could and would change.  They always do.

If the precedent is set that whenever the Senate is controlled by the Presidents party they can just win the election by not counting votes for their opponent (without a ruling from the courts) - is that still a democracy?

What the fuck are these people smoking because I would really love to smoke some of it. Seems to really bring you into a beautiful fantasy world that can help you believe anything and everything that your brain wants you to. Logic doesn’t matter.

Take everything with a grain of salt. Chem trails are real though

Stratospheric aerosols. Introducing small, reflective particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect some sunlight before it reaches the surface of the Earth.



What's up with using a mirror of the actual oxford site?  I'm just curious, is there a reason you don't want to link this: https://www.oxfordmartin.ox.ac.uk/geoengineering/ ?

Don't see anything about chemtrails from Oxford, Harvard does though https://keith.seas.harvard.edu/chemtrails-conspiracy-theory

Ultimately you'll need to be implanted with a device which can be programmed to make any mRNA needed and updated on the 5G network.  A similar or same device will be monitoring people continuously for the next 'new strains'.  When, using 'AI', they find one, people will be updated with new mRNA to 'stop the pandemic before it starts.'

Actually they'll probably use something closer to Astrazeneca's technique of putting DNA into the nucleus of cells and having that be what pumps out the mRNA since less designer genetic material needs to be fabricated.

During the 1890 'Russian Flu' there were similar theories, except involving electric light and telegraph poles.  People that didn't didn't understand how the new technology worked were convinced by other people that pretended to know how it worked that there were a group of bad people that were responsible for the pandemic and they were trying to make it seem as scary as possible so they could control everyone.

Even if your assertions of the 1890's are true (and they sound like something that a desperate person who subscribes to the paradigm of 'lying for your truth' would pull straight out of his ass), so what?  One way or another, it's fairly meaningless here in the reality of 2020.

Back then it was telegraph poles and electricity, now it's 5g towers.  I'm sure Corbette has taught you all about those while reminding you to never trust the 'experts'.  The guy literally makes his living spreading conspiracy theories.  Do you think he's more of an expert on who shot JFK, what really happened on 911, or vaccines?  
2208  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you think COVID19 is a scam? on: December 31, 2020, 03:26:29 PM
...

In 2020 there were more than 80 million cases of covid-19 and almost 2 million deaths.

I'm sure you vetted all 2 million and kicked out the obviously fraudulent ones like motorcycle accident induce trauma.  Nope?  Left that little task to the 'experts', eh?

Something I read about recently because it got the reader (of government stats) censored and banned indicates that a grand total of 370 or so people who were in Britain, under 60, and had no known pre-existing health conditions died from 'covid-19'.  I bet that if you exclude people who had 'treatment' involving various sorts of interventions and off-label drugs, the number would approach zero.

0->400 is a FAR cry from the Imperial Collage 'models' which predicted 2,000,000 dead if the politicians didn't Gitmo everyone.

I doubt anyone posting in this thread is an expert - all we can do is look at the qualifications of whomever is making the claim and go from there.

Supposedly about half of the doctors and nurses in continental Europe are saying "Not no but FUCK NO!" to genetic reprogramming (not) 'vaccines'.  Are those people 'expert' enough for you, or are they automatically non-expert because they don't agree with the corp/gov 'experts' in the bureaucratic maze and multinational corporate pharma companies?



Are you saying that half the doctors and nurses in Europe are anti vaxxers?  lol

The preexisting condition/but they were old anyway argument is quite the stretch, but it's the closest thing to a good faith argument covid deniers make. It's not like it's a rare thing to have some sort of health condition and they're already on their death bead and all covid did was put them out of their misery.  Something like 25-30% of the US population has a preexisting condition.  So what's your point?  Even if zero people died that were 100% healthy...so what?  You can have a pre existing condition your entire life and die of old age.

Hey Steve, I'm not sure why I haven't raised this issue before, but whenever I log in, it seems to fail once and then show me the reCaptcha box, and only then can I log in. I never see the reCaptcha box before clicking the Sign In button at least once, which means I make at least one login failure. Is there any particular reason why it's hidden by default?

Same here, but it's a small issue I think. The captcha doesn't ALWAYS show up though, I have had one or two occassions where it lets me login on the first attempt. I guess this is just an automated way to detect if it needs you to authenticate or not. Wish there was a way to stay logged in forever though:)
Same thing happens to me, sometimes with 2fa as well.
Most likely it's the browser preventing google from loading the captcha until a request is made.

You could probably avoid it by turning tracking protection off or allowing unsafe content or something like that in your browser.

I rarely get logged out though, and on my phone can log into the app with my finger print so it's no problem there.

badecker. tvbcof has already admitted people do get covid and have symptoms by trying to establish that the vaccine wont work because people will still get covid. with or without the vaccine.

so you lost a conspiracy ally. i am just ramming more nails in his foot so he cant run back to conspiracies.


'covid' == 'year 2020's common cold'.  'covid-19' is just the marketing term they put on it for the hoax pandemic operation psy-op of 2020.  Sure the common cold exists, and sure, the common cold causes symptoms.

If they can somehow suck you into the medical/industrial spider web to get 'treatment', they can start jacking you full of all kinds of off-label meds which cause a chain reaction which commonly results in death.  That death only helps bolster the fraudulent mortality numbers which in turn causes more mind-fucked paranoidiacs to rush to the hospital if they get a sniffle.  Classic chain reaction.


That's according to internet conspiracy theorists.

According to experts around the world, Covid-19 is the disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which was first observed in late 2019 (hence the 19 in covid-19).

In 2020 there were more than 80 million cases of covid-19 and almost 2 million deaths.

I doubt anyone posting in this thread is an expert - all we can do is look at the qualifications of whomever is making the claim and go from there.

Republican congress-elect for the US house dies of COVID, being just 41 years old. If you believe this is a scam or a fake virus, the scam must run extremely deep because the someone decided to off a US congress person.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the highest ranking US official to die, yes?

"...complications related to COVID-19" eh, Associated Press?  That euphemism can be and has been used to describe a motorcycle accident.  More likely he 'died' due to complications related to being a creepy pedo or some such which is seems to be a prerequisite to holding 'elected office' in the Ju.S.A. these days.  'Complications' like 'about to be outed.'



Positive test on the 18t, hospitalized within a week.
ICU on the 23rd.
Dead on the 29th.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/12/breaking-pennsylvania-certified-results-president-found-error-error-twice-size-difference-candidates/

BREAKING: It's the same Trump supporters that made all the other ridiculous claims that are making this one.  Like before, they are full of shit.

From PA Department of State:


Quote
In today’s release Rep. Ryan and others rehash, with the same lack of evidence and the same absence of supporting documentation, repeatedly debunked conspiracy theories regarding the November 3 election. State and federal judges have sifted through hundreds of pages of unsubstantiated and false allegations and found no evidence of fraud or illegal voting.

Now, the legislators have given us another perfect example of the dangers of uninformed, lay analysis combined with a basic lack of election administration knowledge.

For instance, it is quite common to have significant "undervotes" for down-ballot races in a presidential election, particularly when there isn't a U.S. Senate race on the ballot. In 2000, Sen. Santorum received 200,000 more votes than President Bush, but the US Senate race still had more than 100,000 fewer votes than the presidential race.

We are unclear as to what data the legislators used for this most recent “analysis.” But the only way to determine the number of voters who voted in November from the SURE system is through the vote histories. At this time, there are still a few counties that have not completed uploading their vote histories to the SURE system. These counties, which include Philadelphia, Allegheny, Butler and Cambria, would account for a significant number of voters. The numbers certified by the counties, not the uploading of voter histories into the SURE system, determines the ultimate certification of an election by the secretary.

This obvious misinformation put forth by Rep. Ryan and others is the hallmark of so many of the claims made about this year’s presidential election. When exposed to even the simplest examination, courts at every level have found these and similar conspiratorial claims to be wholly without basis.

To put it simply, this so-called analysis was based on incomplete data."

Why do you keep spreading this nonsense?  Do you actually do any digging or just look for the headlines you want to be true?

SWC rake compared with America's Cardroom. The USD stakes on the far left column are slightly off since they were calibrated at btc price of $20,000.


SwC's wallet needed to be synced back up yesterday which created a several hour window of deposits/withdrawals not being able to be requested. This has since been fixed.

AlexTrebbert, SwC is aware that you and others want the rake adjusted and find ACR's higher % but lower max rake to be more favorable. They are currently working on creating a new rake schedule, which should come out this week.

Like others have said: The cap is really the only thing that matters, the % is basically irrelevant.

I think you should consider coming up with a plan now on how you intend to respond to future price changes in bitcoin.  If the price of bitcoin goes down, the cap should go up, and if price goes up, cap goes down.  Informing players ahead of time what price will trigger the change, and what the change will be will avoid having to go through this in the future.
