I turned the sound off and scanned through your linked video. No Sanders in any of that.
So YOU edited the Sanders video to create the false narrative? Do you have no shame?
"I turned off the sound because if I had to listen to the sound my entire argument would be defeated."
It is a one minute short video. It took you more time to write your comment than it would have to listen to it.
It took you more time to find a video than to just say "yes I edited Sanders dishonestly".
You being evasive and dishonest does not obligate me to play along. You were dishonest with your Sanders edit. I asked you why you were dishonest with your edit. Your explanation was more evasion.
If you have a position, you are doing the worst to represent it. Your track record on this is entirely dishonest. I can't trust anything your saying.
What is the video I linked about? What does it say?
There's zero Bernie Sanders in it. You're still not answering why you deceptively edited Sanders statements.
There is turn on the audio and listen to it.
Admit you dishonestly edited the Sanders clip.
So you admit you are wrong
Wrong about you editing the Sanders clip to make it dishonest? I ask you if you did, and you STILL haven't responded. Care to now?
Watch the video with sound and say it again 🙂
Nope, thats not how this works. You don't get to demand anything of me when you haven't even answered my question. I've watched one of your videos already where you did a dishonest edit. Why are you so afraid to use your own words?
Go defend genocide elsewhere.
Look at you jumping to conclusions!
I've had one single point my entire interaction with you, and that is for you to be honest about your dishonest edited Sanders video. You've decided that pointing out your lie in your edit somehow is supporting genocide. You should go to the next Olympic games. I'm confident you would win gold in Mental Gymnastics.
Yawn more dancing around the subject.
There is ONE SINGLE SUBJECT, and yes, you are dancing around your dishonest edit.
I am not dancing around you and Bernie defending genocide.
Its "defending genocide" to call you out on your dishonest edit? Isn't this what Israel does? Accusations against Israel as a state (irrespective of religion/ethnicity) are met with claims of antisemitism. You're exhibiting this philosophy perfectly. Don't like being called on your dishonesty? Accuse your accuser of something completely unrelated. You are using the Israel playbook of accusing me of genocide when the ONLY thing I've talked about with you this entire time is your dishonest edit of an 8 second clip.
You are making Israel proud by using their tactics.
Why is everyone booing in the clip?
Why is the clip intentionally edited to be deceiving?
If you're so sure of your position, why did you cut it short?
Why is everyone booing? Is it out of context?
Good question! Why don't you post the WHOLE clip for us to find out?
How's the weather you are today?
Did they start booing in foresight?
So odd you're suggesting we speculate when the entire clip is available on your hard drive. Why don't you post it and we'll look at it together.
Did the crowd prewatch Bernie his speech before booing?
Post the whole clip. Lets find out.
You can post it along with how far you think the context window goes. Then I will tell you if you are right.
There it is. Finally an admission on your part you dishonestly edited the clip. Thank you for your honest, even if it took awhile.
With you admission, I don't think we need to continue this. Feel free to reply if you wish. I won't be responding. I hope you have a nice day.
What you thought time space stopped after the video?
