College is a joke. Amazing that you have a business (yes, they are a business) that manages to tag on all sorts of extras to their product, have the customers willingly pay a bunch extra and go deeply into debt and then manage to find a way to deflect all the blame for costs to said customers to someone else. "We didn't put you $100K into debt.. that was that persons fault over there. Get em!"

As close as I came to that was for one class, the teacher said day 1 that administration thought he was being too tough so, he said that because of that everyone in the class was getting an A as long as you attended regardless of the work.

Conversely, in a finance class, I had the opposite. Admin said that the teacher was being too lenient so, he said he had to fail a bunch of people and they could retake the class next semester, retake the class, not show up and get a C. I failed because on the final test, he came up with an arbitrary rounding rule that he didn't tell anyone so he could fail people.

Yet again, did the reporter dox Tucker? Has the reporter ever doxed anybody (this I do not know)?

People like you believe things that aren’t real, then go “well it COULD HAVE BEEN real”.

It’s childlike and unintelligent. You’re better than that.

Sorry, you're talking to the wrong person. I'm a systems based thinker, not results based. It makes no difference to me what the end result is in this scenario, if the intention of the reporter was to feature Carlson's home in the Times, then there you go. That the action was stopped makes no difference to me on the merits or the character of said reporter.

To suggest I "believe things that aren't real" is disappointing to hear. I live in reality, and in fact, make it a point to focus only on reality each and every day. Changed my life.

And my conclusion is that the Times was going to run a story about Tucker's home in Maine, to which Tucker vehemently did not want to happen. And my guess is that the Times had no intention of publishing the actual address, but enough details for people to know where it is if they went looking. Best guess what happened.

But I leave open the possibility for other things. I believe the above to be the most likely scenario, but certainly don't take Tucker at face value and equally don't believe the Times at face value. You, suggesting that not only must I take a side, but that I should believe the Times because they deny the claim is ludicrous.

BTW, in your example above, both kids are lying.
So let me get this straight.

You're not picking sides, you're drawing your own conclusions.

Got it.

So you're of the belief that the Times was not going to publish Carlson's address, and that Carlson didn't want the article published.

Got it.

As much as I was apparently wrong, it seems like we're saying the same thing.

This is fun.

Again, it's a non zero chance but it doesn't make any sense. The most likely conclusion is that a story was going to go up in the Times about his house in Maine; and this was his way of not wanting it published. Good for Tucker, the story may not be published.




His house is in a very small town. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find.


That being said, disclosing where people live should be HIGHLY frowned upon by everyone on both sides of the political spectrum.


If I was anywhere near that area, I would do everything I could to AVOID him.

You were wrong for calling Tucker's claim false. You have no idea.

I see this is getting hard to keep up with. Name for all of us the "things that aren't real" as you describe. Because I'm struggling to find it in any of NCs posts. Perfect example below...

Do you want to go line by line.

NC: I’ve never seen conservatives dox anyone

Me: here’s an example that tied off your “Tucker is going to be doxed” claim.

NC: defensive mode and start speculating about stuff.

Snooby: can you prove the times wasn’t going to dox Tucker?

Me:




Again, I’ll live in the reality where Tucker wasn’t doxed but the reporter was. Tucker made the claim he was about to be doxed on Thursday (). Does Tucker have any proof of this? No, he doesn’t, or if he does he hasn’t shown anything. Tucker owns the burden of proof because he made the claim. This is how rational people operate.

And again, as expected, you distort the facts to avoid any semblance of concession. Its OK, we all know your game.

NC - I believe there's a strong possibility it happened and a "non-zero" possibility it didn't

Queefquest - You believe things that aren't real!

Me - Prove it.

Queefquest - Lets spin this into a knot to distract from my careless statements.


No .gifs needed, just facts.

Additionally - Tucker's Lawyer, in court (as Tuckers Defense) said:

“Tucker Carlson Tonight” as “hyperbolic opinion commentary,” not “sober factual reporting.”

Do we really believe anything he says when his defense in court is not to believe him?

Absolutely not, no. Not now, not ever.

It's an unproven claim. It's not false, it's not true. To blindly suggest one way or the other is dishonest and dangerous. It's what makes the media so powerful, they simply subscribe things as fact, and then millions and millions believe it. "Donald Trump is a racist", is a claim that so many believe, without evidence. Could be true, could be false. But it's just a claim.

Language is critical in society; so calling people names, words, labeling theory as fact or fiction is scary. I have no problem labeling my opinions, labeling my predictions, labeling my words as only mine. If others took ownership of theirs, we'd be in a much better place. Instead, many just regurgitate slanted theory online without any thought of their own.

Useless and unhelpful. Already twice today.

Did you find that post yet? Still waiting to believe you on hoping our president succeeds, surely once in XXX posts did you convey something non-negative. Or were those hollow words, just for today?

Would you like me to quote the order of the comments?

NC has this wild idea based on nothing but his own thoughts and assumptions. I'd say that's not real. A court would agree. You don't have to though.
