MBFC Credibility Rating: HIGH CREDIBILITY
There is no rule about ‘blog sites’ on worldnews. Jordanlund has made this up and proceeds to classify anything he does not like as a 'blog '.
Listen here, you little shit. He literally interviewed for an article and said he opposed BLM because they were an inconvenience to him. And I don’t give a shit what he’s saying now to throw off people, I’ve seen him say zio shit on more than one occasion, and you don’t just suddenly give up being a right-wing twatwaffle.
Jordan Lund is a vile, racist, zionist piece of shit, and anyone who defends or supports him is sitting at the table with him and accepts those labels for themselves.
What a coherent and sensible response.
I guess that’s probably your best option though. What else are you supposed to say? You can’t exactly say the screenshot is fake, or that what it shows isn’t blatantly contradictory to what you’re trying to say. I guess just “listen here, you little shit” is about the best response you have available lol. I think most of the time, you’ll get some hostility back in return, and then it just becomes “oh God people are yelling at each other,” and the factual message gets muddled up.
I am still very curious why you (and a bunch of the other “usual suspects” accounts in these comments) are so determinedly lying about this. You clearly don’t actually care about the article itself, or else you would be upvoting it, commenting under it, generally… I don’t know, something. But instead you are over here, determinedly creating the fiction where Jordan Lund censored it. Why?
And here you are, just ignoring the fact Jordan is a racist piece of shit that’s on record defending Israel, because he hasn’t deleted one article, so clearly that is proof everyone is lying and out to get him!
It’s pretty obvious to me that you’re as much of a racist piece of shit as he is, if you’re this hellbent on defending him. And I don’t argue with people John Brown would have shot.
Tribal engagement. Nice. Pretty much anyone who’s pro-Palestinian will see you saying “zionist” and whatnot, and then me disagreeing with you, and might come to the conclusion that I am on the pro-Israel side.
Also, the wild personal attacks are a pretty solid tactic. When you come out with “piece of shit”, vaguely implied death threats, “vile”, “twatwaffle”, and whatnot, people will usually have to decide between abandoning the conversation (makes it look like you have a point), responding in kind (makes them look like an unhinged arguer-on-the-internet – this tactic worked great on FlyingSquid), or just kind of continuing to address the subject matter and ignoring it (makes them look like a pussy for sitting there and taking it). There’s not really a good option out of those for how to respond. And, whatever happens, we’ve abandoned the factual stuff we were talking about. Nice.
The pivot to talking suddenly about an unanswerable question (what Jordan’s internal politics are) instead of the very clearly answerable one we were talking about, without any acknowledgement that we’re doing that pivot, is pretty standard fare, but in keeping with the other tactics it’s likely to be pretty effective. I like also how you’re trying to bait me into an extended discussion about whether he is or isn’t, by saying “on record,” so we can start digging through messages, as if that’s now the point of what we’re talking about all of a sudden.
Let’s see… reframing my argument in wild incorrect ways. I’m now saying “everyone” is lying (instead of just you lying, and the other people in these comments who are clearly lying, look at the screenshot). And my proof is something totally different than the screenshot I sent. My proof is all of a sudden that he didn’t delete the article. Some kind of Uno reverse… because you lied about him deleting the article, and I pointed out that he didn’t, now you’re turning it around as being not that big a deal that he didn’t delete the article after all, and it doesn’t prove anything. Oh, also using “hellbent” to sort of emotionally load the conversation as me being the one who’s not really being logical is a good use of spin.
Let’s see… what else? You packed a ton of stuff into some pretty short messages lol. Have you ever thought about going pro?
This is as far as I got into your “well, acktually” reply. Yes, you’re saying everyone. Everyone in this thread. You also implied there’s this conspiracy to chase Jordan off Lemmy (I really hope there is), so we’ll include the supposed actors in that plot in the Everybody as well. Don’t try arguing semantics with me, your messages are right there, and you’re not very good at it.
You typically do your best to post long, detailed messages where you argue semantics, try calling out logical fallacies, and generally try to act like a neutral, logic-driven intellectual. The problem is, none of your arguments are particularly compelling, and that tactic isn’t convincing because humans aren’t logical creatures. Everybody knows this is just a facade you’re adopting to try to make your arguments seem well reasoned, and the opposing side like an overly emotional teenager. But you see, to actually make this whole act work, you have to be clever. You’ve got to do more than repeat bullshit you read on some debate forum.
And Phillip, you aren’t very clever.
Now, we can be done here, or I can keep making fun of you while you make dry, long-winded replies and pat yourself on the back. But you might as well save your breath for now, because judging from how many shit takes you post in this comm, there will be plenty of times for me to embarrass you in the future.
Confident assertion! I knew I was missing one. You just need to show super conviction about your side.
This one is pretty rarely seen: Negging. I don’t think I’ve seen it done on Lemmy before in exactly this way.
Stick around, I’m sure I’ll show you plenty of things you’ve never seen before.
I have not defended Israel, I have stated multiple times that they have been committing war crimes and their current actions in Gaza meet all 5 definitions for Genocide when only 1 is needed to count as a genocide.
No, I oppose BLM for two reasons:
The protests where I live serve no purpose as everyone here agrees with them. They’re preaching to the choir to make themselves feel better instead of taking the protests where it might actually matter.
They only care when the Black Life in question is taken by a white cop. 9 year old girl killed in a gang crossfire? BLM is fucking silent. Either BLM or they don’t. Be honest about it.
Hear about Kaylah Love? No, of course not, because BLM doesn’t give two shits about Kaylah Love.

Sorry dude but that’s a pretty bad take. BLM was never about gang violence. It was about systemic racism and murder of black people by police. The idea being Black Lives Matter (too) because noone was giving a fuck about the disproportionately large number of black people murdered by police without repercussion or the slightest media coverage.
This is a frankly bizarre take. BLM is a protest aimed at the government (specifically the police apparatus). They already investigate gang criminality (your link specifically mentions that the Chicago PD is investigating). So as far as BLM is concerned, that’s the appropriate response and the government is doing its job? What is there to protest here, it’s not like gangs are going to go “oh shit look BLM is protesting, better stop all our criminal activities”. You should feel sympathetic to them not protesting this, because the protest would be heard by people who already agree and by people who don’t care (see your own “preaching to the choir”-argument).
BLM protests disproportionate police action usually aimed at black people, because it’s not how they think the government should act, nor do they react appropriately afterwards. That’s their pretty singular purpose.
Your argument boils down to a strange combination of whataboutism and a strange attempt at gatekeeping “standing up for the civil rights of minorities”, which I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen someone else attempt tbh.
BLM was a response to cops of all races taking the lives of black people, not just white cops. Your example is of someone who was murdered, but not by the cops.
You should try reading the news more.
“What about black-on-black crime?”
Another check on my “I’m not a racist” bingo card.
Find a story where BLM is remotely interested in a death not caused by a white cop. It’s cool, I’ll wait.
Should they change their name to “BLM*”?
Are you fucking slow? BLM was literally created to defend black lives taken away by the police.
And rapidly became more than that… See the disruption of Bernie Sanders speech in Seattle back in the day.

Whataboutery much? You are accusing BLM about not raising issues of deaths caused by a gangwar. Guess what, they also don’t raise the issue of melting polar caps. 🙄
No, but melting polar caps doesn’t directly kill black people. Well, not yet, give it another 10 years.
All I’m saying is, if your mission statement is “Black Lives Matter” then it has to be ALL black lives. Not just the ones that fit your agenda.
Flip it around, ACAB - yeah, pretty much true across the board.
Because Jordan Lund said so?
You are unbelievably arrogant.
There’s no walking back for you, is there? You just dig in when confronted. I like that, it’s more meme-able.
And it makes for good receipts when you end up called out in this comm again next week, and I get to remind everyone how shitty you are. I gotta post these on Mastodon, they’re golden.
I have nothing to apologize for because what I’m saying is 100% true. BLM doesn’t give two shits about black lives unless the perp is a white cop. Full stop.
Where are the “say her name” memorials for Kaylah? They don’t exist. Because they don’t care.
God damn, you’re on fire. You have the typical liberal racism, but you have the stubbornness of the alt-right. Lemme ask you this, how do you feel about Jews? Not Israel, I mean Jews specifically.
I have no beef with Jews, the zionists are the Jewish equivalent of white supremacists though. I’ve stated that multiple times.
So when you see this bullshit?

That’s someone who needs to be at a tribunal.
