Bryce Weiner attempted to tip ISIS!?

[QuestionAuthority]

Seriously though, doesn't it seem a little silly for a great and powerful nation to run in fear of a 17 year old child? Are we that fragile? Should I be packin heat every time I visit the grocery store? lol

How dangerous could she be? She's just a little girl?
SPOILER ALERT:
She is damn dangerous!

But what fuels her hate?

I fear that it is love that drives her. A love of killing. 

Yeah, ok. She popped out of her mothers womb with an assault rifle and fatigues. Governments fuel hate and no government is better at it than murrica. No country in the world has more armed citizens than the murrican crazy land.

Just in case anyone missed it, QuestionAuthority switched from arguing that 17-year olds aren't dangerous enough to worry about (they're just nice young buys working at the grocery store!) to arguing that child soldiers exist but are only dangerous because of 'murrica. Maybe a better handle for QuestionAuthority would be QuestionBasicLogic.

QuestionBasicLogic also switched from referring to the U.S. as a "great and powerful nation" to "murrican crazy land." Or maybe he's just misspelling "Moroccan."

You should re-read everything. I was referring to the supposedly "great and powerful" country that's afraid of children and constantly police their citizens. Maybe english isn't your first language.

The 17 year old "child" was arrested in Virginia according the link supplied. Maybe you don't know Virginia is part of the U.S. Maybe in addition to studying some basic logic you should brush up on your basic geography.

Again probably a language barrier. I said when a girl wears fatigues and carries an assault rifle it's a government fueling the hate not specifically the murrican government but they are quite good at it.

Well children do copy cat what they see around them.

Yes, that's true. That's why I think it's highly likely that you've spent a lot of time growing up around dishonest people. The kind of people who would say "17 year olds aren't dangerous" and then contradict that in the same thread. I'm not saying this to argue with you. I'm saying it so there's clear evidence that you're not capable of having a rational conversation about a topic. It could be useful in later threads when people make the mistake of responding to you.

You've also given a good example of the phenomenon I mentioned earlier in the thread (when it was still about Bryce Weiner). A lot of people in the cryptocommunity (including me) are against the rising police/surveillance state. However, people who can't think very clearly can't see that both the police state and jihadists are real and dangerous. They aren't mutually exclusive. However, certain people give cues that indicate "We will think you are one of us if you believe jihad isn't really a problem." To be accepted as part of the group people parrot ridiculous and ahistorical nonsense. And make very dumb decisions like donating to ISIS.

Maybe you simply misunderstand me because I like to be humorous. I would no more agree with donating to a terrorist group like ISIS than I would agree with donating to the CIA. I'm an isolationist. I believe if we weren't running around the world pissing people off they wouldn't bother trying to blow us up. Stripping away your freedoms with legal loopholes like the Patriot Act would be unnecessary. Americans will eventually lose their right to bear arms, freedom of assembly, freedom of speech and a host of others if people don't stop it now. The problem is there seems to be too much blind patriotism without much thought about the process. WWII forced us into this role of world police force and we just can't seem to shake it. It's costing us a fortune abroad and destroying our freedoms at home. ttyl

[freedomno1]

Well he just donated 1$, and probably wanted to just test it.

True enough if something is really broken it needs to be tested first
Otherwise we might have seen more large amounts going to fund them instead

[TheButterZone]

Should have tipped @criminalsunion "to help... repeat the history of gun control" LOL

Someone gave her a gun, that's sad. But she looks to me like someone fighting the Americans. I know a lot of people think America is behind everything, I wish that were true. In reality we have little power to do anything around the world. And we do not pay for child soldiers when we do.

[nutildah]

In reality we have little power to do anything around the world. And we do not pay for child soldiers when we do.

Except for the well-documented military interventions, government destabilizations, coup attempts, assassinations, bribes, blackmail, interference with foreign elections at the behest of corporate interests going back at least 5 decades, leading to the plundering of resources and the resultant mass poverty, starvation and genocide, no, the U.S., the wealthiest nation on the planet, has very little power. (im being sarcastic here)

At an individual level its true we are powerless, most of us are bitches to our corporate/government masters. As a collective nation we screw with the world in a royal sort of way.

We may not pay for child soldiers but we often build their guns.

^This.

We may not be directly paying them to work for us, indirectly we still help them by making such guns. We, as a group of individuals, help the government to screw the world in some ways we knew but we cannot avoid, like paying taxes etc.

As interesting as this argument is and what your opinions are on policy can we please try and keep this on topic and not go on too much of a tangent?

Not sure what to make of this.
I understand the point he was making (see coin desk article) but think that what he did or attempted to do does not justify it.
BTC has a mixed picture in the outside world. This only portrays it worse not to mention the effect that supporting terrorists can have!

What do you think?

I think it was not attempted, Bryce did gave something for that ISIS man.

[sAt0sHiFanClub]

Isnt the tl;dr of this topic "Its bad to give money to terrorists"?
And its been pointed out that the US government has given significantly more (Enough to give every US citizen a decent standard of healthcare) to terrorists than this guy did, but many people dont seem to have a problem with that. Surely that makes policy a real important issue...

That may be true yet it is disputed. Regardless of that, it has also been noted that some rule or policy is needed. I think it's better to have one governing organisation (who may or may not have directly or indirectly contributed to terrorism) then having a free for all riot where people self-govern over society. In the latter scenario I'm fairly confident in saying both terrorism and crime will be much more prominent and more of an issue.

You are absolutely right. It's laughable that the U.S. government can call any group a terrorist considering the information that is available about the horrible things they have been doing since WWII. The CIA has been committing terrorist crimes globally since before most other terrorist groups were in diapers.

So basically he's trying to shift the blame from himself to Twitter.
He should just man up, admit he was wrong and stop acting like a child in my opinion.

that's like blaming the gun for killing someone. When you pulled the trigger.

Good analogy - I like it.
Anyway let's see what the pro-Weiner guys have to say about it.
