> Are you saying that this makes it okay? I am not saying it makes it OK. I am saying he is the boy who has cried wolf so so many times I will not believe anything he says ever anymore. The noise to signal ratio is off the charts. I am not saying everything he says is a lie or framed to be misleading. But I am saying honest truth is a rarity in his works. Much like the actual boy who cried wolf, he says the honest truth in extremely rare occasions. But for the sake of my own sanity, I (and I am sure many other Canadians) have stopped listening to anything he has to say. I don't count a framed and edited video from Ezra Levant as evidence. If you could point me to an actual news site, preferably something well-regarded like Globe and Mail not partisan like Star and National Post, and certainly not tabloids like Sun, then I would take a look at it. And when I say news, I mean news, not opinion or anything else. Otherwise, I am not going to waste 30 minutes of my life listening to a video by liar-supreme.

That includes claiming that it was framed and edited before even watching it. If you're giving opinions on things that you haven't even seen, then you're the one contributing to the noise to signal ratio, and that's an undisputable fact.

  I opened the video. Saw that it is edited (It does not show the entire meeting from the beginning to the end unedited. He puts clips of himself in the middle. He does his signature "ask for donations" thing. Etc). Given literally the entirety of his work history, I know it is going to be misleading if not an outright lie. So I spent 1 minute realizing it won't be worth my 30 minutes and closed the tab. And if you are going to argue that this is not enough to refuse to believe the video and I should present more concrete evidence, I will refer you to the bullshit asymmetry principle: https://twitter.com/ziobrando/status/289635060758507521?lang=en https://twitter.com/ziobrando/status/289635060758507521?lang...
