We don’t have to “believe” it. There’s plenty of actual evidence of your fundamental dishonesty, starting with this very post.
But we get it. You’re willing to lie incessantly for partisan political reasons, and need to assume that everyone else is just as dishonest and hypocritical as you are. Because it helps you sleep at night.
Not that you’ll ever admit it.
Whatever you say.
You can always leave, you know.
And you could stop lying.
There are plenty of honest conservatives out there. You haven’t been one for a long, long time.
Uh huh. You could always leave it you don’t like it. I mean, that’s what I keep being told. But I’m not the one being constantly triggered and freaked out by an opinion I don’t hold, or running to the pit every time someone says something I don’t like.
There must be safer spaces for you out there, if the SDMB isn’t pure enough for your fragile world view.
Mind you, that might limit your ability to circle around and punch down at the people greatly outnumbered on this hoard. And that’s the fun part, isn’t it?
Or you could stop lying.
I’ll remind everyone the reason we’re here,
is because it’s where you want this to be.
An ‘honest conservative’ on this board would be one who admits that conservatism is bad and begs for forgiveness, or who witholds their opinions in fear of attack.
Anyone else gets the treatment.
Anyone going to apologize to me for raking me through the pit for months for saying that the Hunter Biden Laptop might be real? Some of you have been lying your faces off over that, now claiming to hold the same position that I was pitted for (the laptop was possibly Hunter’s but any information on it could be ‘salted’ with Russian disinformation amd would have to be vetted, which is what I said).
Anyone want to apologize for repeating the Trump Russia-collusion hoax long aftermif was known and pointed out to you that it was a Hillary Clinton campaign dirty trick?
Should I call you liars if you don’t agree with me?
If not, you can take your demand for an apology, roll it up real tight, and cram it.
I would love to stay out of the pit and have nice discussions about all sorts of issues. But if you keep dragging me in here by attacking my character, I’m going to push back. I don’t tolerate bullies.
This is a lie you use to pretend that you’re being persecuted for being conservative rather than being held accountable for your lies.
This has been debunked with you over and over and over again, and yet here you are again, deliberately misrepresenting events. The only one “lying their face off” about this is you.
Another one that has been debunked over and over and over again for you for literally years, and yet here you are again. At this point I’m started to worry you have serious memory issues because you were and are spectacularly, demonstrably wrong about the “Russia hoax” thing and have been repeatedly shown so, yet you keep forgetting this.
Ah, an indirect lie, insinuating that we call you a liar because we “disagree with you”. That’s only true if you mean “disagree with you about verifiable reality”. We call you a liar not because you hold different opinions but because you lie over and over and over again.
I don’t want an apology. I’d like you to stop lying though.
Ironically, your lies are often the reason we can’t have nice discussions about anything touching on politics.
I’m sorry that you’re triggered by being held accountable for your words. Have you considered just not lying for once?
Yeah, it makes discussions easy by falsely and willfully believing that environmentalists are mass murderers. However, as the evidence shows, yours is also bad faith personified.
No you wouldn’t. You drop political turds into threads all the time, you can’t help yourself. You want the reaction, you want to tweak “the libs”.
Have we reached the “more trouble than they’re worth” threshold for a ban yet? I mean, @gyrate just called out (sadly, the quotes bypassed my ignore) a multitude of factually incorrect information that Sam has shared (derailing/hijacking threads in the meantime) despite repeated debunking, in a multitude of threads.
Even if we can’t get a ban, perhaps the mods should be considering a topic ban as Sam has proven to the point of (my) nausea that they are unwilling or incapable of debating in good faith on any topic that touches “liberal” interests.
Just for the record, here’s a handful of Sam’s lies or otherwise false statements (there are many, many more):
Here he lies/misstates about something Biden said about the fatal accident of his family: Does POTUS Biden believe that he's the smartest in the room? - #77 by Sam_Stone
Post #78 demonstrates he lied/misstated about something Biden said about Iraq, and in post #82 Sam makes a very rare admission of a mistake he made about Biden’s academic record. Amusing to see so many false statements when Sam is trying to demonstrate that Biden is dishonest.
In this thread Sam repeats lies from the Comer GOP committee about the Bidens’ finances: "House to start an impeachment inquiry into President Biden" - #178 by iiandyiiii
Post 190 in that thread identifies some of the specific lies Sam spread – in particular a bizarre one about a nonexistent Biden granddaughter.
Here’s an infamous one in which, of all things, Sam accepts a Trump tweet as somehow official government policy: Donald Trump Declassifies all Documents Related to Russia/Collusion and Hillary Emails
I don’t know if that’s dishonest or just unbelievable, pathetic credulousness, but it’s amusing nonetheless. Sam has never admitted how dumb he was for this one. He even promises to come back to the thread and say he was a big weenie if he’s shown to be wrong… and never does. So that promise was DEFINITELY a lie: Donald Trump Declassifies all Documents Related to Russia/Collusion and Hillary Emails - #71 by Sam_Stone
I said this right at the beginning:
I also said that so far, there was nothing that directly tied Joe Biden to it.
My take back then has stood the test of time. The insults and accusations of lying hurled against me then, not so much.
If anything, I gave the ‘Russian disinformtion’ letter by those spooks more credibility than I should have.
There was nothing significant in the laptop. There never was. Nothing verifiable and nothing suggesting any actual criminal behavior (other than things that were already widely known, like drug use). Certainly nothing connected to Joe Biden. This was never anything more than political nonsense, and this was clear from the beginning. The Comer GOP lies about these records and many others aren’t actual evidence of anything except Comer and his allies’ perfidy.
Yet another liberal lie! I have it the authority of Marjorie Taylor Greene that there are (GASP) pictures of Hunter’s penis on that laptop!
And it’s my understanding that said penis is significant.
Maybe it is jealousy that is driving all this hatred of everything Biden? I can totally see a campaign from the right showing the inferiority of those with larger…members.
I hear Canadian winters cause shrinkage.
(Of the range of electric vehicles . . . but why should I care if my cite doesn’t support my joke?)
Perhaps the Right-ous think that being a big dick is somehow equivalent to having one?
You said this right at the beginning of this thread we are in.
There is no “trove of damaging information”. There’s nothing. That’s what people are calling you out on. That’s what you were wrong about. You were not right. That’s the problem with a message board, your words are here forever for people to reference.
If there is a “trove of damaging information”, what was it? Why have Republicans sat on it for years? It’s because it’s garbage.
I don’t personally dislike you. I’ll even stand up for you when it’s warranted. I don’t dislike you for being conservative, I was a conservative for many years myself so I’d be a hypocrite. I even agree with you on a lot of things (mostly non-political but even some political stuff). I just don’t like your dishonesty. I’ve even been mocked because I’ve said I wish Sam could just be straight and honest and then he’d be an awesome member of the community, because that’s sort of like saying this cake would be awesome if someone used cocoa powder instead of manure, but hey, that’s just how I am.
Would people still give you crap for your beliefs? Of course they would. If you posted on a message board that had mostly vegans and talked about how much you love eating meat, they’d give you crap there too. But you wouldn’t be treated as badly as you are treated because you aren’t honest. That isn’t just a line of bullshit people use as an excuse to persecute you. It’s real.
That opinion explains a lot. This is a bigger lie than anything you have accused me of. But I wouldn’t call you a ‘liar’, because I think you’ve just got your head so far inside the liberal bubble that you have no idea.
