Man that video was absolutely sickening I haven't done a lot of research about Pizzagate, but the videos you linked to are awfully convincing to me that it is John Podesta abusing that child. That doesn't mean it is necessarily true obviously, but it is convincing - higher pitched New York/Italian voice and the circumstantial evidence is interesting to say the least. The voice belonging to the person torturing that child is emotionally charged and rising in tonality. The clip of John Podesta taken by James O-Keefe captures John not emotionally charged and is in a falling tonality. In other words, it's not the best comparison. https://youtu.be/0Vt6yyFujWg?t=4m31s <object width="425" height="344" data="<object width="425" height="344" data="https://youtu.be/0Vt6yyFujWg?t=4m31s"></object>"></object> This is a situation where he IS emotionally charged and his tonality is rising and at the high end of his vocal range.

See how they respond if you string together a very long and complex sentence (of paragraph length) - less intelligent people tend to tune out or not have much to say in response See how much slang they use See if they know a little bit about various current events See what their relationship is towards fun/knowledge and how much overlap exists between those two for them See how conforming they are to the zeitgeist of the mainstream media I don't think I could reasonably gauge someone's IQ score based on these things, but I believe I can usually tell whether or not they are in the upper half or bottom half of intelligence.

The Black Family of the 21st Century
Quadrewple replied to TheRevenant's topic in Peaceful Parenting
I briefly attended an all black school in the ghetto in Birmingham, Alabama - I was the only white kid there. Needless to say, the classes were far behind my school in California, the teachers were very unhappy, and many of the kids had never developed a healthy sense of restraint which parents are supposed to model for their children. I attended this school briefly in the year 2000. I should also mention that this school allowed corporal punishment, and as far as I know, the state of Alabama still does. So the physical abuse at home is reinforced by physical abuse in the school, and the physical abuse at home produces acting out behavior which leads to more physical abuse at school, etc etc etc, ad infinitum. -
Thank you SO much! Seriously, I probably never would have found it.

Censory Overload - The Guardian Goes Full Backspace
Quadrewple replied to aviet's topic in Current Events
If you want a good laugh, search on The Guardian's website for the few articles about refugees which still allow comments. Check out the ratio of deleted comments to approved comments. It really is beautiful to see a propaganda mouthpiece's audience turn on it in real time. -
Found him on London Real, really great episodes to watch. His tactics and style of presentation are unfavorable to some people, but it's clear he is a great motivator and sometimes we need someone to just tell us the truth with no filter.

I called into FDR in late 2011 or 2012, more likely 2012, and though I remember the text "A dream about defenses" being the description of my call, and I can't seem to find it though I have spent at least a half hour searching using the keywords "Sunday" "call in" "dream about defenses" etc. If anyone has a suggestion other than me going through the entire list of podcasts in those years I would be eternally grateful. IIRC this is before the time the Sunday shows were routinely uploaded to Youtube, and I believe was during the time when you could just speak up and be the next caller rather than reserving a call.

Gun Ban / Immigration Ban = Double Standard?
Quadrewple replied to regevdl's topic in Current Events
"You choose to eat sugar, which is bad for you, so why not also choose to live a sedentary lifestyle, which is also bad for you?" To answer would likely involve you taking your present life circumstances into consideration. To answer your Devil's Advocate question would reasonably involve the same: "I if do not like the immigrant, do I have the right to use my freedom of association to ostracize him, economically and otherwise?" The answer is No in many parts of the world. Someone owning a gun in no way gives them a legal right to violate your freedom of association, whereas an immigrant does have that legal right.- 17 replies

Well yeah, bullies by definition are not intending to help the other person. Which is why Stef was probably talking about banter, responding to an insult with grace, which is a skill best practiced with people one knows. I heard the podcast, and I didn't get the impression when I listened that Stef was erring on the side of apologizing for abuse.

There were many factors which came together which allowed for Christianity and society to co-evolve - many of which we may not be able to replicate. If Islam were engaged in a full-on war between factions, without outside interference, and without advanced weaponry - MAYBE they would eventually grow tired of fighting each other. But since none of that is happening or can happen, since Pandora's Box of modern weaponry has been given to primitive people, the chances of a similar type of Reformation happening seem incredibly slim to me. At any rate, for those who believe Islam can be reformed, that's a great undertaking and could do a lot to make the world more peaceful. But it needs to happen BEFORE Islam leaves the Middle East, and even then I still would not want to import lots of religious people into what is becoming an increasingly secular society.

Your implication seems to be that we must hold ourselves to higher moral standards than the people around us who regularly praise the use of force against us. We are not obligated to do so. If you believe you must, go for it. If you're so concerned with the abandonment of principles, you should put your focus on criticizing literally every single group other than libertarians.

I haven't had chills like this since Stef's last podcast...
Quadrewple replied to KidBlondie's topic in Atheism and Religion
Powerful performance and lyrics! Great share -
As an American raised in government schools, I had no idea why Pat Condell was so focused on Islam back in 2009 when I came across his channel, as well as FreedomainRadio's. The Islamization of Europe has been well hidden from the mainstream news up until recently with the migrant crisis. He is one of the few who has been fighting this battle of ideas since the very beginning, and he would make a fantastic guest for the show.

I found this article quite interesting. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/mar/22/islamic-state-brussels-jihadis The article writer could've summed the whole thing up as "Platitudes stop bombs and guns"
