> my understanding is she wouldn't have been sent to jail for that. Your "understanding" directly contradicts the links I posted saying that she was jailed for her insulting/offensive remarks. > I haven't lied anywhere on this thread. > He didn't get 3 years in prison for telling people to go out and protest, he told people to “set fire to all the fucking hotels full of the bastards”. That's a lie, right there. I was not referring to that person. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41429818 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41429818

Copying and pasting from literally the third sentence of the link you posted > The young woman was convicted last week of sending "insulting and threatening" messages The threatening is important I didn't lie in the comment you linked, I just didn't magically guess which guy you were talking about. I apologise for that.

  You said above: >> she wasn't sentenced for insulting him ...which is the falsehood that I pointed out with those links. I never claimed that the threat of violence didn't factor into it - you're the one who claimed that the insults didn't. > I didn't lie in the comment you linked You said something factually false about someone while knowing it could be false. That's epsilon away from lying, and it's certainly deceitful and deceptive, as are your statements above. > didn't magically guess So you magically guessed in the most malicious way possible instead of asking who I was talking about. You also said: > Are you lying or misinformed? So you extremely confidently and aggressively projected your assumptions onto me.

    >> my understanding is she wouldn't have been sent to jail for that. > Your "understanding" directly contradicts the links I posted saying that she was jailed for her insulting/offensive remarks. My copy and paste of the third sentence of your link was to point out that this is false. As far as the lying goes, if I was trying to lie I wouldn't have linked an article naming the guy in my message. What I said was completely correct about a guy who matches the description you gave as much as the person you intended did (both told people to protest, both called for violence against migrants (in my opinion)). I made a mistake in that I didn't know there was a second one of these scumbags in the news currently. That mistake is on me but its not a lie.
