Bah humbug! :lay:
While I have previously mentioned that the only prerequisites for uploading stuff to Youtube are minimal (microphone, camera and opinions), it is increasingly becoming a treasure trove of information and entertainment. I am particularly pleased by the increased availability of full length documentaries and concerts.

I fully admit that people (such as my son Nick) can get very useful instructional material from Youtube. It's just that I am a weird sort of dinosaur; increasingly, I find all forms of visual and even audio material, including films & TV something I just don't enjoy, so I retreat to the written word (plus pictures/diagrams/graphs of course)

I don't think you should call him a vegetable.

Worse, I called him a vegetarian.

He isn't a member here, so I don't have to play nice.

Being a member of the Deep State, of course he would say that! Probably a secret commie too! :lay:

So far, he is mostly in agreement with Alex Jones' account of his event.

That's very wise if Mr Jones considering he's under investigation by the FBI for the part he may have played in inspiring the Capitol rioters.

He probably should be. But again, it just sounds like you both are just parroting Alex Jones talking points.

Well, Cunt hasn't shared what Jones is supposed to have said, but the Independent has this
He then claimed - erroneously - that an army of “antifa” was there, and blamed the rioting at the Capitol on them.

“And so, by the time I got out there 20 minutes, 30 minutes before Trump finished his speech there were already hundreds of thousands of people ahead of me marching. And before Trump ever took the stage, antifa, dressed up - over a hundred of them - as patriots, was there,” he said.
Yeah, that sounds a lot like
FBI Director Chris Wray on Tuesday debunked conspiracy theories promoted by right-wing supporters of former President Donald Trump, saying there was no evidence that leftist extremists disguised themselves as Trump supporters to storm the U.S. Capitol.
,,,
“We have not to date seen any evidence of any anarchist violent extremists or people subscribing to antifa in connection with the 6th,” he testified, referring to the loosely organized anti-fascist movement.

“That doesn’t mean we’re not looking and we’ll continue to look, but at the moment, we have not seen that.”
