Thanks for the information. I've seen Civil Asset Forfeiture discussed about before on message boards and couldn't remember for the life of what it was called. Civil Asset Forfeiture is just state sanctioned theft from what I can

by YEwSdObPQT 5y ago
The idea that you would be required to have ID in your own country is horrid. In the UK you are not required to have any identification on you.

That maybe correct. However even if was ten to hundred times the number it would not be a significant percentage.

How disingenuous. All this tells me is that you don't have an argument against my position. If you are have an rebuttal, I am quite willing to hear it.

by YEwSdObPQT 5y ago
The argument you have presented is a classic tactic that the state uses to justify censorship and its abuse of power. Present scary group of people and then use it to justify taking away everyone's rights. it is a nonsense because. F

He says exactly what he would do. I am under no illusions of what these people are like (my step brother is affiliated with such groups). That does not mean his analysis of the free speech debate is incorrect If you are alluding to restrict

I listened to a video from a guy who is most probably a white nationalist and most probably a fascist in the UK quite a while ago. While I find his view abhorrent he understands the free-speech debate better than anyone else. To paraphrase

The cancel JRE movement has been going on for a long time. He has been attacked for years by the same people. He is competition (and an effective competition) to traditional news and media. They don't like that because he is a self mad

What do you mean by "diverse core audience"? I literally mean a plurality of people. Also we don't need hard metrics to accept that podcast has broad appeal. Demanding data for what are obvious things is asinine. If it didn&#

Some of the things that are said are crazy. I listen to a lot of podcasts because I listen to them while I work. A lot of the news shows will just cut up parts of an interviews to make it more controversial than it really is. It is really d

I was expecting such a reply. It is really frustrating talking to people with an attitude such as yours. He has a large inter-national audience and the number of people that have watched his podcast is in the 10s if not 100s of millions. Th

I've not played with the OS myself but I occasionally watch a live stream and ask him questions. He talks through stuff off the cuff and you know he is a genuine dude.

by YEwSdObPQT 5y ago
Because he has a sizeable inter-nation audience. If anyone has a sizeable inter-nation audience they will have all sorts of people listening to them. There is something in the region of 100s of millions of downloads. Joe mentioned it and ta

No it isn't either. Micheal Malice (who had some episodes where he appeared removed) was unaware of them removing them until someone told him via Twitter. A lot of people aren't going to buy it was a mistake considering the timing

A shock jock? Howard Stern was a shock jock. Have you ever watched Joe Rogan? He has a 3 hour conversation with a guest where he talks at lengths about pretty much anything he wants to ask them about. That isn't a shock jock!

He isn't conservative leaning. He is pretty much a centre/centre-left anti-authoritarian. Plenty of people watch Joe Rogan that aren't conservatives. Most conservatives and people like myself who roughly describe themselves a

The GUI could be set back to classic Windows quite quickly. There was also the Zune, Royale and Royale Dark (unofficially leaked IIRC) themes that looked nice. XP 64bit (for x64 machines) however was the best Windows OS I've ever used.
