Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
Its highly ironic that the only CiC is the only person on this forums actually post sources to back up his arguments. Crazy or not, he's one of the few members that doesn't just defecate all over his keyboard, and then proceed to call whoever disagrees with them idiots.
Lol. I was just laughing about that last night. Not with CiC but how some others tend to go off on some things and anyone that disagrees is automatically wrong.
I mean, CIC may look for sources, but its still not a discussion on a subject. It's still a fight for conversational supremacy. It's still revscene.
RS.net, where our google ads make absolutely no sense!

From a purely objective point of view CiC wins out in most arguments just because he actually provides source of where his viewpoints are coming from. His source being legitimate or not he's not afraid to show the basis of his argument.
The rest of the people just clatter away about their opinion and how it is true and the other person is wrong purely because they said so. Guess you can't expect too much out of an internet forum haha

Even when people provide actual evidence dismissing his viewpoint, he ignores it entirely and tries to change the subject. That's why no one bothers anymore, because he'll just ignore it and post more bullshit using the same sources that are biased, unreliable or otherwise while not even bothering to address any evidence that counters his.
Anyone who's actually tried to debate him (with evidence) has given up because there's no point in arguing with someone who ignores what you've presented and steamrolls over any sort of evidence you have by plugging their ears like a 5 year old. This is why he'll get ignored when he actually posts something of merit, his history ruins his legitimacy.

Except I've pointed him in the direction of many alternative sources for my arguments and he'll either claim that it's a farce (if I used a news article from a "mainstream" publisher/broadcaster) or that I'm fabricating and distorting evidence if I use my own tools to disprove something (like when I used Photoshop to disprove his Boston bomber from being pasted into a photo).
I gave up a while ago and will usually ignore him. I'll only pipe up now if it's something that's so inane that my moral compass compels me to respond.

Actually the ironic part is that he uses the same crackpot conspiracy websites all the time as his sources, and yells at people who use established legitimate sources instead. He spouts off whatever bullshit they have fed into his (honestly I think damaged) mind, and calls everyone else 'sheep' who are brainwashed.
The irony is that he's the one who is brainwashed, by other lunatics.

I once had a discussion (two actually...) where I AM THE FUCKING EXPERT SOURCE and he wouldn't believe me over some crackpot idiot on the Internet that went to Yale for creative writing or something.
Once was regarding JPEG compression causing abnormalities in a picture rather than Photoshop. They tried to zoom in on a JPEG at 400% and wondered why it looked pixelated. As a photographer, I think I know a couple things about pictures and photoshop.
The other time was something to do with the 9/11 planes and their navigation/communication systems and I happen to be an avionics technician. Nope...apparently PressTV knows more than someone reading out of the actual manual telling you the reason why nav aids aren't 100% reliable 100% of the time.
He isn't here to debate anything. He's here to be right because he can't wrap his head around the rest of the world not being as crazy as him.
CiC, you have a thread for consipracy and zionist stuff. That stuff stays there. I've edited your posts here for clarity but not content, however any future posts on those topics here will be moved to that thread. I don't enjoy banning people from threads, especially when it's threads they start.
Are you making new RevScene rules? Dont mention Zionist stuff?
And whats with keeping me banned from the burger thread... I commented on a guy wanting me to change my name to "I love Zionist" for a bet, and now this subject... of all the off topic things said on RevScene is taboo now???

Certainly, mistakes happen. And absolutely this is one of those cases. We can also tell that the issues go deeper because the patient in question's depression led her to suicide after this, and attempts beforehand (ie: what brought us to this incident). Did the hospital fail to follow its own procedures and listen to its staff (the nurses)? Absolutely. Is this a systemic failure? No.
People call me delusional, but I find what you're saying pretty crazy... from your keyboard you investigated this case and closed it on the bases of "hospital failed to follow procedure".

Do people die in hospitals? Absolutely. But people are also on the whole living much longer. Some people are going back to the 'paleo diet' because it's more healthy and better for our bodies. People seem to forget that we used to live only to about the age of 40 if we were lucky, and that before modern agrarian developments we were typically about a foot shorter than we now find ourselves. Am I saying that our world is perfect now? No. But not everything can be blamed on the fault of individuals or groups (either real or imagined).
Yes we can blame people or groups, hospitals and doctors are the 3rd killers of humans in North America... but lets deflect this into people are living longer now and the paleo diet... no.

Shit happens. We are living in an fucking amazing time where information, both good and bad, can be had in an instant's notice; where we can push our voices and ideas across the entire world. Where previously-fatal diseases can be reduced to virtually nothing within the space of a generation (HIV/AIDS now only takes ARVs which reduces the viral load to below the threshold required to infect others). Where a heart attack is no longer fatal. Where being shot or stabbed or losing an eye or having brain damage, or even being torn in half no longer means death.
I'll take my advanced medical procedures without the threat of having my organs stolen thank you very much... too bad I wouldnt be able to afford a private hospital if I needed it.
- Cue in the "why are you still living here then" tards.
And yes we are living in an fucking amazing time where information, both good and bad, can be had in an instant's notice... but dont mention Zionists and conspiracy theories on RevScene.

Now. You're welcome to debate the advantages and disadvantages of the medical system, but this thread should be limited to a discussion on the current system of organ harvesting, the ups and downs of the medical system, the effectiveness of our system of measuring 'death' and 'validity' and so on.
No how about the ruling elites, and yes Zionist, that are responsible for most of the world plight. If thats going to get me banned then its not worth it for me to be here in the first place.
In solidarity with occupied Palestinians, Jews against Zionism and all that is moral... I await my permanent ban by continually re-posting my censored comments...
unless this site acknowledges in its rules that the mentioning of Zionism in a negative light is not allowed.
I understand that this site runs on Zionist aligned automobile companies but I find it offensive to silently censor this political issue unless its openly stated in the rules.
You have an entire playpen for all your crazy already. Let the sane folks talk about sane topics.
And I'm pretty sure no one here gives a shit about Zionists apart from you. You're not being censored because of that. You're censored because it's goddamn annoying that you think everything is a conspiracy. If I had milk this morning, you'd conclude it's because Jews stole my orange juice.

Is this for real or is a mod screwing with your sig?
Because if its real..."this site runs on Zionist aligned automobile companies" thanks for this. What car companies should I purchase from that are free from zionist alignment issues? VW/Porsche and BMW only?
