Scott Adams has a words for you about Rittenhouse and “the Fucking Fake News”… UPDATE: Greg Gutfeld Underscores


I find Adams an obsessively boring doofus … but here he’s right on the money concerning the Rittenhouse trial, “the fake news,” and the news.

    Adams was also on the money a while back when he pointed out that (paraphrasing) – most people don’t form their opinions, they get their opinions handed to them.
    Saw this at its finest last night at a friend’s house on MSNBC. Inbetween Trump attacks there was a segment on how the Rittenhouse and Arbery trials are exposing our nation’s systemic rrrraaaaaccccciiiiiisssssmmmmm. I had to leave after a few minutes.

    I’ve mention Jury’s instructions a few times here. Rittenhouse, judge, working overtime to provide clear and detailed instructions. Notice if you will how-little the jury’s instructions have to do with the tools of arrest, Probable Cause.

    Had the jury been present, this “ exchange of language definition”. Would lead quickly to mistrial.

    Attorneys and cops live in a world of Rules, rarely do either work under the same definitions.

    The judge, has bent over backwards to NOT misstep, his duty as presenter of juries instructions.

    Frankly this trials a shame, what I’m saying is Rittenhouse, should never have been arrested, nor charges levied.

    When the verdicts of innocent is confirmed, not a minute should be wasted in filing law suits against Media, and the DA his minions for millions and millions, for defamation, I understand that generally DA’s judges are Immune from civil accountability, unless their is clear evidence of malice.

    While rare, law suits have occurred. Judges censored as-well as Attorneys.,

    This Judge is a rock star.

    After watching the Gutfield piece, Im in agreement. I’ve followed the facts, not hyperbolic bullshit from msm.

    Boys and girls, the time for talking is way past! Only one final option going forward,, that’s shooting these COMMUNISTS in the Mother Fucking Face.

    UnderTrumps 4 years,,,,,,,,,the communist spent their time wisely, using every tool at their disposal, if you happen to have a copy of the Communist Black book, you won’t be shocked to realize that by the numbers the communists are using proven tactics, the same tactics used in China, in Russia, other communist countries.

    There can be zero reeducation of a communist, it’s who they are, not what they are. Caging them is foolish.

    Humans are violent by nature, I’ve been truly amazed at just how many people have agreed to live within the rules regulations of society. Clearly slowly day by day, communists are pushing their own kind of violence, against organized society.

    Communist teachers, Indoc kids from kindergarten thru 16th grade. “ depending on where one lives”. Are not held accountable by school boards. Here in Oregon the State Education dept, incorporates required educational assignments, counties south and east have rejected these tools of indoctrination, refuse to incorporate em into daily curriculum.

    The battle continues.

    As I said, the talking should have been done,along time ago.

    Dominate MSM dominate Education, etc etc etc,,,,

      I am concerned that you are correct, here, Dirk. In attempting to tie the disparate pieces of the puzzle together in regards to what is currently happening in America, and around the world in general, the Commies (this includes Democrats/many Republicans/AOC and Sanders ilk unabashed socialists, the Deep State, bureaucrats throughout government local, state and federal, etc.) feel that they are on the cusp of complete control and instituting of the commie agenda, and they are not interested in the least in relinquishing this control. The soon to be heard Rittenhouse trial verdict could be the fuse, regardless of recent Republican “victories” at the polls, and tweets which indicate individuals being red pilled, which lights the fire.

      If the Commies (see list above which may not be all inclusive) feel they may lose control, power, because of rising, so-called, Republican victories and Rittenhouse being found not guilty, don’t think for an instant that they are going to roll over like a good dog, they’ll bare their fangs, and then all bets are off.

    “I find Adams an obsessively boring doofus …”

    I think you might be a bit too hard on Scott, often boring, yes, exceedingly boring, quite so, however obsessively?

    OK, you’re probably right, it’s been at least 2 years since I’ve watched one of his podcasts & I didn’t watch that one all the way through.

  • Kevin in PA November 15, 2021, 10:45 AM

    I agree on both counts RE: Scott Adams – “boring doofus”, but he is one the money.
    Gutfeld, on the other hand, I find to be a smarmy know-it-all. In my search for news and information I don’t look to be entertained.
    His humor is weak and does nothing to inform or suggest options on how our nation might contend with the rot and corruption. He is all smart-ass and cynical and laughing all the way to the bank. He reminds me of the smarmy leftist know-it-all attitude on display throughout lame stream media. Can’t the political right do anything original? I don’t like the Fox News Network, as they try to play “conservative”, while they are not. Tucker Carlson is really the only talent on that network.

    Adams is most certainly an obsessively boring doofus, but his girlfriend is not. Wow.

        She is without a doubt very high maintenance. Adams of course has a nice bank account. He will need to keep the money flowing to keep the girl at his side. I wish him all the best.

    • Terry November 16, 2021, 8:08 AM

      Not boring whatsoever. I second your, Wow.

    This is an object lesson. There are already small wars like this one being fought all over this country. If you injure someone or kill them in legitimate self-defense, especially if you live in a blue state you should expect the same treatment.
    For Rittenhouse, even if he is exonerated, he’ll be under threat and relentlessly hounded for years.

    Think carefully before acting, have alliances with reputable, reliable partners, make sure you know and best comply with the law, avoid being a lone ranger, do your best to have objective evidence or witnesses, be knowledgeable and skilled in gun safety and use, and have a good lawyer well before the first shot. I’m sure I’ve omitted relevant considerations.

    Nevertheless, if you’re not in one these wars now, as many of you know, you probably will be. Be prepared. You have to survive in order to not surrender.

    • Dirk November 15, 2021, 12:11 PM

      Rule of law is a pipe dream, if/when we start shoot em in the face, o thinking out loud here,,,,,,,,bullets sanitized, gloves, a brass catcher, an effective mask, and expendable foot wear. Not one word of your good deeds even to your bff, or wife.

      I’ve zero intentions of calling the poopoo, even if it’s a righteous pest removal case.

      Na you get got, I’ll lay odds your ol pal gave you up. It’s just how it works.

      Nope, not even a courtesy call for a clean up in the frozen food section.

      • Mike Austin November 17, 2021, 12:03 PM

        Dirk: Hmm…what’s this “Rule of Law” you mentioned? I’ve heard of it but haven’t seen anything such in quite some time. I lived in the 3rd World for 14 years. “Law” there is a commodity, like apples and medical care and BMWs. The more money you had, the more “law” you could buy. It was generally out of my reach, but my wits—such as they were—usually sufficed to keep my out of trouble. Usually. There were those “incidents” in Italy, in Spain in Chile and in Guatemala that need not be mentioned here. Such a tactic more than likely cannot work in America. So it’s “Gray Man”, boring clothing, Faraday bags and keeping my mouth shut in public. And my “uniform”: an old guy with a nice demeanor, long hair and riding a bicycle. That works until someone sees the big iron on my hip.

  • Dirk November 15, 2021, 12:14 PM

    O yea, look for the Attorney General. to almost instantly file Civil rights charges. These punks are straight up chicken shits.

    • gw November 15, 2021, 12:52 PM

      A good bet.
      But the charges would likely be something aimed at domestic terror or a federal gun law violation, since the people KR shot were white.

    I can’t watch Gutfeld. For all the reasons you mentioned, Kevin. Worse is the laughter. It sounds creepy, forced, fake. I can’t get past it. Red Eye was funny. Gutfeld is not.

  • Aggie November 16, 2021, 7:21 AM

    I can’t take Adams, because he takes 3 minutes of pithy thinking and makes it last an hour. He comes across much better in 4 Dilbert panels.

    Gutfield. ugh. Every time I think of programming like this being representative of Conservative thinking, I shudder. He is the worst commentator-that-thinks-he’s-funny, ever. Torture by tortuous humor.

    Careful. 6 million news died in the last world war so you can’t really go around blaming the news. Even if the news are to blame. Let’s stick with “systemic racisms” and other categorical boogeymen the NPR/NYT/Harvard ministry of linguistics cook up to make sure White Men never calcify their spines again because other than building and maintaining Western Civilization, bad things might happen to the news. Like ending the Fed.

    Also for all the news likes to propagate in the interest of the news, the news never seems to get around covering the fact that the news has spread anti white/Christian/male/traditional/heritage American cultmarx propaganda throughout every institution in this nation. All while the news remain a protected minority in spite of their disproportionate representation in the news and said institutions. Strange that.

    • Mike Austin November 17, 2021, 12:11 PM

      I can tell you are not one of (((them))). Neither am I. Any slight disparagement of (((their))) World War II difficulties will get in serious trouble. Someone once called (((them))) “white washed tombs” and “scorpions”. I wonder Who said that?

      I could rant for a long time. But not now.
