I need to vent. Fatal shootings in Minnesota

[Jerry Nelson]

So youre saying these supposed Organic people are doing this on their own accord ?

What a bunch of losers. What a waste. I could think of several, much more important issues to protest about.

Having said this. I still think its an organized group and many are paid leaders and goons. The evidence is overwhelming. Fairy tooth and santa clause believers refuse to see this .lol Covid didnt teach anything to these sheep.

"I still think its an organized group and many are paid leaders and goons. The evidence is overwhelming." If the 'evidence is overwhelming', EXACTLY what is the evidence which supports your position. Your opinion without evidence is irrelevant.

And yes, so the discussion goes on.... Quite the enrichment of the BAexpats forum it is (not). I am truly appalled by anyone that can't control the urge to bring this toxic, totally irrelevant, discussion into this forum.

Since when is "democracy" irrelevant?

"Lol...you left out George Floyd..." To me, the death of an individual, irrespective of their criminal record, is never a laughing matter. If my death in a geriatrica in CABA is a laughing matter to the staff, or to my family, by that time it won't matter to me.

Overall, the George Floyd-related points hold up factually. The paid-protester claim is a recurring allegation without substantiated proof of direct payments to individuals, in both 2020 and recent protests. Sources from all sides (e.g., Reuters, AP, Fox, NY Post) show no smoking gun for paid attendees—only funding to activist organizations in some cases.

It's interesting to me that the 'paid protester' claim (both here and in the USA) is always against the Left. When people protested in support of Trump at the Capitol, no one accused them of being paid. Or when Milei has his little concerts, no one says people are there for free beer. Trump and Milei are supported by people with deep pockets, and make laws in their favor, but it never crossed my mind that there's not enough 'True believers' to form a mob.

People protest against police violence, climate change, in favor of higher pensions for jubilados or workers rights... out comes the 'paid protester' trope.

I mean, if *I* were an evil cartel of billionaires, I wouldn't be funding these Left leaning guys; I'd be funding the ones that support tax cuts and privatization.

I mean, if *I* were an evil cartel of billionaires, I wouldn't be funding these Left leaning guys; I'd be funding the ones that support tax cuts and privatization.

I just asked Google, "Who constitutes an evil cartel of billionaires?"

And here's the AI answer;

"The concept of an "evil cartel of billionaires" is largely a subject of, or reference to, conspiracy theories, fictional narratives, or, from some perspectives, critique of extreme wealth inequality. Search results do not provide a verified list of specific, named individuals constituting such an organization.

However, based on the search results:

• Conspiracy Theories & Populist Views: Some perspectives suggest that a small, elite group of the super-rich (sometimes mentioning names like Musk, Murdoch, or Trump in informal, conspiratorial, or highly critical social media posts) are, as part of a "few vs. many" narrative, controlling or manipulating global systems.
• Critique of Capitalism: Critics argue that the "evil" lies in a system that allows for massive wealth accumulation, where corporations, legally driven by maximum profit, may operate in ways that harm the world and the environment.
• Market Makers: Some interpretations of "wealthy cartels" refer to high-tech financial firms or market makers who control the flow of liquidity in the financial world.
• Fiction/Pop Culture: References to "evil corporations" in media often refer to fictional entities like the Umbrella Corporation (Resident Evil) or Tyrell Corporation (Blade Runner).

Real-World Criminal Cartels:
It is important to distinguish this from actual criminal organizations. Search results highlight that drug traffickers, such as the leaders of the Medellín Cartel (e.g., Pablo Escobar) or the Sinaloa Cartel (e.g., Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán), have accumulated immense wealth, with some, like Griselda Blanco, being described as "billionaire criminals".
Philanthropy & Wealth:
Conversely, some of the world's richest individuals, such as Warren Buffett and Bill Gates, are known for their significant, large-scale philanthropy.

Disclaimer: Assertions about a coordinated "evil cartel" of billionaires lack evidence-based, factual verification."

As others have noted, there is no substance, detail, to support the claim "the evidence is overwhelming" regarding paid protesters in Minnesota. Are thousands paid daily into their crypto wallets? Does Team Soros have geo tracking on every mercenary protester phone to verify the actual presence of the mercenary? Does a mercenary get a bonus payment for adding a new recruit? How does Team Soros sort out the ones actually protesting from cheaters that thought it was too cold to go outside, and just loaned their phone to a fellow mercenary so the cheater could be paid despite being a no show?

'Crowds on Demand' is a company that provides exactly what its name implies, but it they're mostly hired by companies for specific ballot measures (splitting California into 6 states, funding charter schools) and 'hype' PR stunts. The owner said in one interview you only need a fake camera crew and a couple of loud fake protesters (or supporters, or voices at City Council meetings) to get on the news, which is the main goal.

Even the claim that Charlie Kirk's 'TPUSA' funded 80 buses for Jan 6 riots didn't hold up under scrutiny; a spokesman clarified they only paid for seven buses for protesters.

This whole conversation will probably irritate our friend from Holland, but I hear all the time that the protesters here in BA are 'paid'. So there's the local Argentina angle.

Yep! The same rabbit hole that includes, the gulf of tonkin incident, the Kennedy assassination, 911, Iraqi war of no weapons of mass destruction, Wuhan China lab man made breakout of covid funded by the and the deliberate mass illegal immigration by the Biden administration to to garner a new permanent political sytem .That rabbit hole? Lol. Its quite nice. Its very clear and forthright down here but sheep aren't allowed to enter.

What EVIDENCE do you have for any three of these conspiracy theories: gulf of tonkin incident, the Kennedy assassination, 911, Iraqi war of no weapons of mass destruction, Wuhan China lab man made breakout of covid funded by the and the deliberate mass illegal immigration by the Biden administration to to garner a new permanent political sytem .

Are you ok Mentally? All of those I mentioned above have been proven to be 100% FACTUAL, Government induced. I'm not going to hand hold you like a child and show you the proof because it's all out there. Let me guess, you also want proof that Santa clause isn't real either? LOL

You EITHER are an NPC, trolling or have been living under a rock for years.

Jesus the sheep mentality here is palpable.
