RedDick has a goatee in his other universe.

I assumed he was a porcupine in his other universe.  I guess that doesn't exclude having a goatee.

As moderator in the new forum, I will miss being able to insult people.  This forum will be all the more precious to me.

BTW, anyone heard from Larry?  I wanted to send him an invite, too. 

If any of you fucking assholes have information, I would be grateful.

The anti white racist trolls say forgive serial immigrant stabbers because they are the same as public urinators. Is that an argument? Please moderater they are dragging the site down just like the aliens are turning the US into an inflationary knock-off copy of their godforsaken homelands.

News Question

Should US Auto Companies recruit illegal aliens or use robots to replace striking Auto Workers?

Discuss

The striking auto workers are well paid (according to mrs bambu who has been following the story on the internet).
Auto workers in bambuworld, who were very well paid, kept going on strike, demanding more and more...until it got to the stage that the federal govt stopped subsidising car manufacture in the nation, and the auto companies, mainly Ford, GM, Toyota, packed up and left.
No more jobs for auto workers...jobs all disappeared...the said workers "striked" themselves into unemployment.

That is not remotely what I said.  Or argued. The data example was just to illustrate the concept of selection bias and how it might affect what you are seeing from news outlets like Fox.  Please read the post again and click on selection bias definition.  It will I hope clear this misunderstanding up.  If not I will repost with clarifications.

I took one look at the new site and said WTF. Nothing at all like the original Times site or the Elba replica.
----------
I believe Americans will have their say at the polls. People getting destroyed are those on fixed incomes. 55 bucks an hour is not enough for an assembly line worker?

[Oilcanard]

Luee,

it's not intended as a replica of the former Times site or this one.  It's a simple, pared down chat place for politics, news and performing arts.  That's all.  It will be moderated.  You will get responses much like my attempts just now to clarify  what is meant by selection bias.  Best regards to you.

[Oilcanard]

Here is the post with clarifications in red of what it intends to communicate...

An illegal immigrant charged with stabbing a man to death in New York was previously released by police because of a paperwork delay despite being accused of a separate stabbing in another state, according to multiple reports.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/illegal-immigrant-charged-murder-released-new-york-police-paperwork-delay

Selection bias, anyone?

I define the term to Luee, as a courtesy

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_bias

HERE'S AN EXAMPLE OF SELECTION BIAS IN EVALUATION OF A GROUP S BEHAVIOR
(this is not comparing public peeing to murder)

Single data point:   In Peoria IL, police arrest an immigrant for illegally urinating in the street.

Data point is what statistics people call a single case or instance

6000 data points around it:  native born frat boys and winos arrested for public pissing.

Fox News:  Immigrant pisses in Peoria (did not intend that town name might be a sort of pun)

Selection bias in a news outlet is exampled

How Luee could hypothetically respond, due to Fox's biased reporting

Luee:  IMMIGRANTS ARE TURNING OUR STREETS INTO URINALS!

Luee:  IMMIGRANTS ARE TURNING OUR STREETS INTO URINALS!

Lie, never said that. I only mentioned a serial immigrant stabber who wanted to thank sleepy Joe for giving him a second chance. If only it was only public urination.

I am not anti-white or a racist troll.  See my previous clarification.  Also, the demographics I posted earlier for The Villages were not intended for any purpose but to show that planned communities tend to be selective in some way.
So The Villages are 98% white and less than one percent Black, while Florida is generally 54% white, and 15% Black.
This would suggest a process of exclusion of some kind.  If you want to argue that this is a result of economics or other factors, have at it.

Lie, never said that. I only mentioned a serial immigrant stabber who wanted to thank sleepy Joe for giving hin a second chance. If only it was only public urination.

Yes of course you never said that.  That is what hypothetical means.  It was an ANALOGY to what you implied in your many posts which focus entirely on crimes by Latino immigrants.  You should look at events in context of what percent those types of events are in the overall rate of crime.  Not doing that is what is meant by SELECTION BIAS.  I am not saying you intended to misrepresent immigrants but rather that faulty use of statistics can cause anyone to misrepresent. 

A context for the stabbing might be that 4367 native born people stabbed someone this year, while 3 immigrants did so.  That might cast such events in a different light, wouldn't you think?

[bambu.]

Sleepy Joe will say hey man we really need the immigrants and the people will say send them back and close the border behind you.

Sensible people would.
If immigrants are needed in certain sections of the workforce because of a low birth rate in the nation,  prospective immigrants should be made apply, meet the criteria, be evaluated and approved.
Anything else, like open borders, anyone and everyone just allowed to waltz in and set up house on the street, in parks or wherever they please is a recipe for disaster...as mayor Adams of NYC is finding out.

Worth noting that at least according to the part of the right wing news source RedDick plagiarized and posted, the migrants in question are following a legally permissible path to entry, whether in the end they will be allowed to stay or not.

Then your argument is with CNN.

No, it is not.

That was my source, its coverage.

I have no argument with the source.

Not now that you know it did not fit your lie
I think you are as addled as Biden.

Funny from A PROVEN LIAR like you. The article accurately noted the anti-immigrant shouters were doing so in front of a building being used to house people attempting a completely legal way of entering the country. Which you cannot dispute. Well, you are an intellectually dishonest buffoon who will lie about even you most obvious errors, so replace "cannot dispute" with "do not dispute".

You are going from addled to delusional.
You accuse me of plagiarizing some article from a right wing site.
I reported on a CNN TV BROADCAST of a news conference of New York democrat office holders that did not go well due to protestors drowning them out telling them to send the migrants home.

You and Biden can jump up and down ranting that the border is closed but very few people agree with either of you.

You are whistling past the graveyard of Biden reelection hopes.

And I pointed out from the report that the migrants they want to send home are ones attempting legal migration.

Neither Red nor Luee can make simple distinctions anymore. Simple distinctions, clear and true, are an existential threat to both characters. Neither can bare to recognize how far they have pulled themselves outside the healthy stream of humanity to become clouds of unmoored fecal matter.

Legal and illegal fly right past them. Help and harm leave them utterly confused. Saved and wasted turn them back to front. Sacred and profane has them so twisted that they pull their whole epidermis off by initially ripping out their rectums and then using the hole to tear a seam after which they put the damn things on again inside out.

That is why both characters are banned from shopping in supermarkets or attending sporting events or parades anywhere in the state of Florida.
