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.

you launched into like 8 questions calling everything he says into complete validity and you still fail to address the fact it seems you have barely even researched or looked into what he has said. Your diatribe came across as everything but reasonable and rather sowed division.

If I'm not correct, has the lawyer Byrne called into question not been fired?

Even the definition for strawman you posted perfectly fits what you did. You exaggerated and distorted. It's just a post, it doesn't mean everyone believes it 100%.

Also, you sound WAY more upset than the other guy. Just chill out. I agree with you that Byrne is suspect though. No idea who he is, and could easily be playing us, and actually a deepstate ally. Or he could be an ally of ours, really don't know.

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?
