@jmakin

seriously, what are you talking about?

You asked why they “showed up out of nowhere” and I answered!

@jmakin

or are you just gonna leave up his bullshit and hide mine again?

They were moved to the poker thread!

[jmakin]

the conversation is now impossible to follow for future reference, which I’m sure is the goal - for example just like deleting/anonymizing accounts
or editing/deleting posts, as long as you’re in the right clique, that is

“At a moment’s notice I made an arbitrary and asinine rule in order to ban 6ix and thus, therefore, banned him.”

I’m not going to respond to your post point by point. I will state for the record that the newly announced rule was not made up at a moment’s notice or in response to your posting. I proposed the rule a week ago in the moderators thread. Other mods or admins can verify this.

It didn’t get enacted until a few days ago because the forum was relatively free for drama for a few days, and I thought we might not need a new rule. When the poker news thread started getting out of hand again, I decided to roll out the rule.

In regards to the Hustler Casino scandal and how relative perception can be pushed to the limit, I made this post like minutes before this drama happened lol so I suspect it was overlooked:

Poker News and Live Streams - HU4LOLLZ

(anyhow) Here’s a story that just popped in my mind, and if people say ‘holy fuck that doesn’t sound true’ well that’s the point, so make a leap of faith: In the aughts and early teens I lived on a third floor apartment facing a residential street (north and western in chicago if you’re the type that likes to follow along on google maps). So it was a super busy street during the day but empty at night, including parked cars. One night I was standing at the window (the entire wall facing the …

No it’s super easy you just read the actual words on the screen.

If JMakin knew I took screenshots of the relevant Hu4Rollz posts to show a non-UP poker friend of mine before any Drama, I wonder what he’d say.

@moderators

This is a big fucking problem, please do something about it:

@DrModern

What I am postulating here is that, regardless of which political party holds the presidency, Epstein & Co. are more or less directly in charge of the executive branch of the federal government. They likely found Biden more palatable and found that acceptance of their perpetual power and control came more easily when they appropriated social justice rhetoric.

That is why “New Democrats” like Maura Healey are running extremely smart campaigns that cross party lines and

mow through the nonsense with real plans to adjust the monetary balance of power.

@DrModern

Are any of them Jewish? None of them seem Jewish to me? In fact I’m certain most of the key players would call themselves Christian.

[jmakin]

I’d say your friend is not your friend if he didn’t call you an idiot

[6ix]

Please don’t get yourself banned, because I want to talk about this in the poker thread (i haven’t responded to the first post) but this Epstein revival piqued my curiosity.

[CaffeineNeeded]

How are you cutting out the this better not turn into an are robots alive but?

[Crunchyblack]

Unlock Dr Modern thread please, I would like to hear his full thesis

[DrModern]

Are people seriously claiming it’s anti-semitic to postulate that Epstein, Trump, the Clintons, that evil guy Riverman mentioned, etc., are working together behind the scenes of political power?

@goofyballer

Let’s not do this and start a whole thing here?

Not half!

[econophile]

I’m less concerned about that than your claim that Jeffrey Epstein is alive and Donald Trump is dead. If you would like to continue discussing Epstein you can do so here: Jeffrey Epstein and Associates - #2701 by kre8tive

I’m all for letting a thousand flowers bloom, but I’m having a hard time thinking of reasons to leave this thread open

How about two or more people want to discuss the subject. What’s the issue exactly?

[clovis8]

What’s the issue with propagating known false information and political conspiracy theories? We are really asking this in 2022?

[anon42616254]

You’ve been propagating the ridiculous conspiracy theory that Epstein killed himself. I don’t want to shout you down. I don’t necessarily think that Epstein is alive but there’s no harm in discussing it. Just let people talk.

[econophile]

@DrModern do you have more you would like to say on this topic?

[clovis8]

I have? I think I have made one maybe two posts ever on the subject. Zero in the new thread.

[DrModern]

The Trump claim is intended as an ironic or sarcastic extension of the claim about Epstein. I’m happy to drop it from the thread, but I am completely serious about my claim about Epstein and am investigating it IRL. I am gathering evidence on the ground and taking photographs. But no one seemed interested enough in exploring the idea past yelling that it couldn’t possibly be true to get to my actual evidentiary presentation. Basically, I have tons more, but people’s minds were so averse to the idea that they ram-rodded the thread into the ground with “arguments” against the thesis.
