"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?
