Disinformation post ahead of election season - big shocker.

These aren’t snipers, they’re spotters. You can’t even make out what is in front of the dude in all black.

OPs only response to the closest thing we have to real fact being given was “I don’t buy it”

Seems legit. Toodles.

And now you’re deleting my posts lol. What a joke.

[-] seahorse@midwest.social 41 points 8 months ago

I would have left it if you didn't spam shit at the bottom

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 7 points 8 months ago

Just because you can’t read Chinese doesn’t mean it was spam.

Industry standard tiananamen square copy pasta that gets Chinese propaganda pushers in trouble with Winnie The Pooh. You realize how this looks for you and this instance right?

[-] seahorse@midwest.social 34 points 8 months ago

I thought you were done. You used the yawn emoji.

Dude, I don't care

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 4 points 8 months ago

No need to get bent out of shape, was just defending myself and enriching the comment section with more context.

So sorry

Look, can we start this over? I don’t like how this played out and I too was getting bent out of shape for what was likely good-intentions.

I’d understand if you were still upset and needed some time yet, totally fine

Lemmy is supposed to be better than Reddit culture, and be more civilized, and I feel like this was a fail here. I’d like to try again and maybe we can have some civil discourse about this if you’re up for it

[-] seahorse@midwest.social 15 points 8 months ago

Ok, I'll add an edit to the post.

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 1 points 8 months ago

The conversation I meant, but I agree with adding an edit with more information

I think that’s just fair reporting

[-] seahorse@midwest.social 14 points 8 months ago

As far as the conversation goes what do you want to discuss?

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 3 points 8 months ago

Is there a way we could freedom of information act additional information from the police regarding body cam/an official report?

They might lie, but at least we’d have a physical ledger of lies to point to in the future?

[-] seahorse@midwest.social 15 points 8 months ago

Maybe? I don't know if that's worth the time though. Even if no rifle exists up there they could bring one up whenever. I'm sure there is security footage though of them hauling supplies in.

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 2 points 8 months ago

That would be good too imo, just looking for constructive ways to confirm

copy pasta that gets Chinese propaganda pushers in trouble with Winnie The Pooh

What parallel universe are libs living in 😭😭

Love the racism there too. Really brings the whole thing together

The part of your comment asserting the "asians have yellow skin" stereotype, what else?

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Huh? If thats legitimately what people are trying to push as racism, the ignorance is laughable.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_of_Winnie-the-Pooh_in_China

Nothing to do with racism but keep trying to gaslight and push false narratives.

[-] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

lol just like all disagreement with Israel is antisemitism.

WEAK wumao

[-] Arcturus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 8 months ago

Any pro-Palestinians asserting racist antisemitic stereotypes?

WEAK wumao

Disagree. The CPC gave me a raise for ratio'ing in this thread

[-] Melkath@kbin.social 6 points 8 months ago

What in the fascist pig hell...

[-] Garbanzo@lemmy.world 37 points 8 months ago

TIL spotters like to use one normal sized spotting scope alongside another one that's the size of a rifle with a cover on it. Doesn't make sense to me but I'm no spotter.

[-] oo1@kbin.social 4 points 8 months ago

different optical prescription of each eye.
One is prescribed for myopia the other for dystopia.

[-] seahorse@midwest.social 36 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Where do you think the administration got the info that its just spotters from? Cops. The fact that they even called the cops is a red flag.

What the fuck does this have to do with the election?

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 7 points 8 months ago

Where are you getting that information from?

Source?

[-] seahorse@midwest.social 21 points 8 months ago

Why should I believe the university?

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 13 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Because it’s better than believing an unregulated social media site that’s been proven to pedal disinformation repeatedly??

A platform owned by the richest man in the world who happens to be the son of South African apartheid?

A platform for which he removed fact checking on?

The only picture you have, you can’t even make out what’s in front of them?

Can I ask why you deleted my comment that had the Tiananmen Square Massacre copy pasta?

This just in: copypasta is not spam

???

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 2 points 8 months ago

I posted it once but okay

[-] Salph@infosec.pub 15 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

The irony of complaining about "disinformation" while spamming disinformation yourself lmao

[-] stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 1 points 8 months ago

What part of what I said was disinformation?
