Imagining logical fallacies, merely because the facts do not fit your narrative, does not compute.
Here are two facts:
1: Shortly after January 6, 2021, red-hatters claimed that the mob which peacefully toured the Capitol was comprised mainly of FBI agents and other planted protestors. The term "Glowie" was used a lot during this time. I was not familiar with that term previously. One definition, from UrbanDictionary.com, reads "Normally used for the CIA but also used for agencies like the ATF, FBI, etc. Their inability to blend in to the native population's habits, patterns and speech makes them stick out like a sore thumb to the population, hence they 'glow in the dark'."
2: Shortly after the very weak turnout in DC to protest the treatment of the (allegedly nonexistent) Jan 6 rioters, the same red-hatters claimed "Well, obviously the turnout was low. Only the FBI agents showed up."
Both of these facts are objectively true, and can be verified merely by scrolling up a few pages in this thread. Using big words which you don't understand does not change this.

Literally everything I said in the post to which you are responding is factually correct, and easily verifiable. What premise do you argue is false?
Your use of the "straw man" phrase suggests that you feel I was attempting to divert the conversation away from some other point. What point was that?

yeah I'm not going to keep digging for your proof that doesn't exist Joe.
Not long after all the backlash the WH got for trying to deflate the Cuba situation, a PAC ran a commercial down here in SoFla about how hard Joe Biden was on the current regime and sanctions and such for their treatment of the Cuban people by police and other goon squads. Who does that on a non-election year?
To answer the tweet: the people that will be going to vote for Orange Man in 2024. And I'd think he's doing the rallies now and through 2024 in an attempt to influence as many voters on the fence in four years instead of ten months. And since more people keep showing up to the rallies, it won't stop any time soon. And these rallies bring in more people than Joe Biden rallies DURING an election. It reminds me of the time I went to the old Yankees Stadium with my dad and he said that the Yank's have more people show up to do stadium visits in winter than the Marlins do at the peak of baseball season. He wasn't wrong.

I want to tell you a secret:
Jan 6th, 2021 is not the same date as Sept 16, 2021.
the only people on earth who care about 1/6 are the leftists who use it for their political advantage.
You're also highly -- and purposefully -- misconstruing my statement on the Justice for J6 rally. The shitty "news" article summarized that support for Trump was waning based on the outcome for the J6 Rally.
Let's review Post 20498 -- my only mention of J6 here:

So the premise here is that Newsweek is trash because they running stories that the low turn-out for J6 is somehow a reflection on waning influence of Trump.
I then challenge Newsweek to report on the Sept 25th Perry, GA Rally for Trump.
I later quote this same post, and reply with a picture of the Trump rally in GA with an enormous crowd. in post 24251 Again, sticking to the premise that Newsweek is trash and got it wrong about Trump.
And yes, I called it glowie ball for a reason. Every single group/page/forum/friend that I'm associated with warned not to go the the J6 rally for weeks leading up. I don't believe Trump had made one statement about it -- except the day of where he mentioned NG at the Capital but not on the border.
But that's besides the point. You went out of your way to focus in on that statement and ignored the rest... I wonder why that is.

It also find it quite hilarious the timing of the stories about how the Proud Boys and other Jan 6 organizers have now been outed as FBI informants who were communicating with the FBI during the event...
But that would be crazy talk... That's never happened before, especially not in Michigan. or in Russia.
and there was definitely no voter fraud -- it's simply not possible to scan ballots over and over again.

Define: got
Define: vote
If you mean duplicating over 10,000 votes, or accepting 10,000 votes from people who moved from the county prior to the election, or the 282 dead people who voted, you know, just a some of the ~57,000 votes flagged with serious issues in one county alone is voting, then yeah you're right.

If there were a gold medal for mental gymnastics.
At first....I assumed some of the topics covered here were simply trolling....and I am now convinced some of you actually believe this stuff..
Just wow.

In other news, that racist Trump endorsed Hershel Walker before a crowd of thousands.
Biden can't even fill up 10% of a high school auditorium, and yet....somehow...he got over 80 million votes. Amazeballs.
