So, you implied that Nemo is being ridiculous to dismiss Loomer as indicative of actual government policy, and you emphasized “elected” to do it.
It would be like if someone said that you were a horrible person, and I said, “Hold up, man… MrDibble isn’t a convicted murderer”. If I said that, I’d pretty clearly be implying that you are a murderer, just not a convicted one; and someone who wanted to point that out would be correct to do so.
Of course, if you said something like, “Oh, I know what Nemo’s out is going to be here… Loomer isn’t actually an official in any way shape or form and has nothing to do with policy making”, then it would paint your point as ridiculous, not Nemo’s.
Of course, you saying this immediately after it being demonstrated that Loomer has had quite a lot of influence on Trump’s policymaking paints your point as ridiculous.
I emphasized “elected” because that’s the word I knew Nemo would raise his objection on. ‘Official’ wasn’t emphasized because I didn’t think it was important - I don’t make a distinction between the Nazis trump has officially appointed like Miller and the ones he just has around him all the time like Loomer.
“Official” isn’t like “murderer” in being an accusation in itself. It’s just a loose category but sure, you are correct in your nit. She is not an official.
Doesn’t change my actual point (as my other example, Miller, who is an official official, shows) but hey, anything to get the thread away from genocide, amirite?
Also, this?:
Utter bullshit. Ask any Gazan wanting a humanitarian visa.
“If you ignore the evidence, there’s no evidence for it!” is a fun take and certainly on brand for you. As is doubling down on being wrong.
Nonetheless, over here in reality Loomer has had a significant influence on many of Trump’s decisions this year. Unless you think just anyone can meet with the President in the Oval Office and convince him to fire the head of the NSA?
I don’t think Laura Loomer can just convince Trump to fire the head of the NSA.
I do think that any old idiot, Laura Loomer included, can take credit for Trump doing what Trump does; and that particularly idiotic individuals might even believe her. They have to be pretty fucking dense, though.
The same exact thing I’ll say about her right now: she’s a vile, disgusting human being, and it’s incredibly gross that Trump gives her the time of day. Yet another odious move by the king of odiousness.
No, I didn’t say it. You did. I merely pointed out the reality that they did, in fact, give Gazans humanitarian visas up until Loomer’s interference, to counter that particular strawman. Doesn’t mean the strawman is something I actually said.
I mean, everyone is aware ( or should be by now,) that when Babale says “you think…” , he’s about to push a giant heap of only partially-digested straw out of his ass, right?
It’s amazing how prehensile his rectum is, that it can mould it into such vaguely manlike shapes. Wombats are be jealous of his shit-shaping ability.
Laura Loomer has called for genocide.
Laura Loomer (to quote Evita) “holds no elected post.”
But I’m not sure which way the goalposts are moving. Since the only individual cited as calling for genocide is a prominent Republican celebrity, is the position “not all Republicans!” or “not all Trumpers!”? Or is it that it can’t be a call for genocide if it just comes from an individual with a large media platform, but must be from an actual member of government?
Strangely, “I don’t think so” isn’t an actual rebuttal, even if - as noted - you keep ignoring what actually happened. It’s not just “Loomer said”; there are many other people who witnessed the chain of events AND Trump saying that he has taken advice from Loomer on various things. But in rebuttal, you’ve got…well, nothing. As per usual.
I know particular individuals with a long history of being profoundly wrong might think just saying “Nuh-uh” is a compelling argument, but they’d have to be pretty fucking dense.
