Why does everybody instantly believe Patrick Byrne?

Why was he in the oval office? Who invited him?

Nobody seems at all curious about this guy?

Does he have some official position that I'm unaware of?

The guy supposedly slept with a Russian spy and somehow negotiated multi-million dollar bribes for Hillary Clinton. Why do we trust this guy, and who invited him to this meeting?

This sounds like the recent John Roberts screaming rumor.

Byrne has already earned the ire of the media. He’s been trying to help drain the swamp for almost a decade. He’s a crucial dark horse in this fight.

Oh really? Do you have any evidence of this?

He popped up a few years ago with a rambling tale of him sleeping with the Russian Spy.

I haven't heard a peep from him since then.

Until now, when suddenly he has another wild story which is completely unverified about giving Hillary bribes from the FBI?

I don't understand why we are supposed to believe this guy. Am I missing something? Just stating he is a patriot who has been draining the swamp isn't good enough.

Compare to General Michael Flynn. That guy has earned our respect.

Why all of the sudden are people treating this ex-CEO with the same respect, when he has not earned it?

Yeah I am not buying it either to be honest. The amount of larping in the past month has made me very skeptical. Unless General Flynn himself corroborates this story, I am gonna press X to doubt.

Listen to the interview sounds pretty believable

I think the biggest clue is how the media, the mainstream media that is, has relentlessly smeared the guy, when in fact before the big collapse of 2008 he helped expose massive corruption in the SEC and tried to prevent the big market crash. Some players in DC saw that his smarts, connections and charm could be useful in exposing corruption and tapped him to help out Hillary, but once again the deep state bit back hard and he was forced out of the company he founded. You will have a hard time finding any main stream coverage that’s positive about the guy, your best bet is to read his own very detailed accounts on his website and make up your mind for yourself. https://www.deepcapture.com/2019/11/the-sec-me-metoo-part-i/

Listen to his interview on Roseanne Barrs podcast. Recent. She has been a strong but lesser known voice in her small podcast. What they did to her and Norm Macdonald is disgusting ,too. All for being outspoken conservatives/libertarians

He has blown the whistle on Wall Street, too. Particularly in regards to stock hypothication.

I for one, found his accounts to make sense considering what we are dealing with today https://www.deepcapture.com/

Why would a guy leave his billionaire lifestyle to fabricate a story that somehow interjects himself into a political conspiracy, that happens to line up with other stories?

IDK, because we don't know the guy at all. His motivation could be anything.

Not saying that I think he's a bad guy. I'm simply amazed that people are willing to just drop everything and believe everything he says with no common sense restraint.

you are straw-manning which is a common tactic of the other side. Just because people are offering his opinion and saying "look, this is interesting information, what do you think?" all of a sudden you are losing it and saying we are all "dropping everything to believe what he says with no common sense restraint"

  • do you believe other pedes just drop everything like fucking toddlers and cling to his words? Grow up and treat those around here with a bit more common decency. We are not children.
  • also : does it not seem fucking super reasonable for Byrne to expose cuck deep-state lawyers who are just looking to make sure they have a job in the next administration? Byrne is talking some serious shit about Hillary and she has had a shitload of people suicided. At least read the blokes damn work and watch some of his interviews and do some research before your blast off.

That is ridiculous. That is not the definition of straw-man.

A straw man fallacy occurs when someone takes another person's argument or point, distorts it or exaggerates it in some kind of extreme way, and then attacks the extreme distortion, as if that is really the claim the first person is making.

Who is losing it? I'm asking questions, not telling people what to think.

Here is what I said in case you can't remember:

  • Why does everybody instantly believe Patrick Byrne?

  • Why was he in the oval office? Who invited him?

  • Nobody seems at all curious about this guy?

  • Does he have some official position that I'm unaware of?

do you believe other pedes just drop everything like fucking toddlers and cling to his words?

Read the title of this post. Does this sound anything like 'this is interesting, what do you think?'

No, OP has accepted Patrick Byrne's statement as truth.

Grow up and treat those around here with a bit more common decency. We are not children.

It is you who is behaving like a snowflake, being offended because I asked 4 questions. Believe it or not, I was hoping for some actual answers instead of this simpering whining.

Did I hurt your widdle feewings?

Grow a pair.

I am not gonna lie, not sure if the guy is a LARP or legit, but we also have to question, has he done anything that would delegitimize him?

Because what he's saying smells like truth.

Yeah exactly. We've all been watching over the last 4 years. We all knew what was going on, its just about time someone confirmed it.
