All I asked for was your opinion. If you have no opinion as to whether the suppression of a book exposing the Deep State’s anti-Trump criminality is a good or bad thing for the DS, so be it.

[Fantasywriter]

False.

‘If a book exposing and documenting the Deep State’s illegal anti-Trump activities is suppressed that is helpful to the Deep State.’

[philman_36]

Anything that exposes the Deep State’s illegal anti-Trump activities is helpful.

If it's timely and relevant I would agree.
I don't think a book by Corsi would be either.
A horse stalled at the gate...so to speak.

[yoe]

I remember when Obama got first elected, Corsi went to Kenya to look in their government archives to see if he was born there.">

Don't mean to be picky, but what is your source for this and Corsi says Brenner 'sanitized' Obama's pass-port names.

[philman_36]

All I asked for was your opinion.
Don't be coy! You wanted to form my opinion for me.

If you have no opinion as to whether the suppression of a book exposing the Deep State’s anti-Trump
criminality is a good or bad thing for the DS, so be it.
Oh, I have an opinion, you just don't like it.
A late to the show, coat tail riding book neither helps nor hurts. The show will be over and the credits
will have already rolled.

[Fantasywriter]

If Corsi’s book is suppressed it will certainly shed less light on the Deep State’s criminality than otherwise.

[Fantasywriter]

You can impugn my motives all day. You’re still only misrepresenting me.

[philman_36]

If Corsi’s book is suppressed it will certainly shed less light on the
Deep State’s criminality than otherwise.

Conjecture isn't proof of an assertion!

[Fantasywriter]

It’s a truism. A book that is actively suppressed will reach fewer people than one that isn’t. Ask anyone in marketing.

[philman_36]

You can impugn my motives all day.
All day? I'm here all week.

Tip your waitress.

You’re still only misrepresenting me.
If that's what 'oh so innocent you' believes then who am I to dissuade you?

[philman_36]

A book that is actively suppressed will reach fewer people than one that isn’t.
And you think I needed to be informed of this?
Where did the help the Deep State angle go? /moving goalposts

[Fantasywriter]

I know more about my own motives than you do. We know our own hearts, but only God knows every heart.

[Fantasywriter]

Projection. My original point remains the same:

‘If a book exposing and documenting the Deep State’s illegal anti-Trump activities is suppressed that is helpful to the Deep State.’

[philman_36]

I know more about my own motives than you do.
Your motives, it seems to me, are self serving.
Not saying they are, just that they seem to be to me.
JMO, YMMV

[Fantasywriter]

Building up a subjective perception of my motives is unhelpful. I know my own motives and you don’t.

[philman_36]

Are you being dense on purpose?
That isn't a point, it's conjecture/assumption.

You give no credit whatsoever to all of the other people writing on this issue.
People call Q followers cultist?
Well then you're a Corsi cultist.
I shall henceforth call you a Corsican.

[jpsb]

Sharyl Attkisson is very creditable and would do a friendly interview if Corsi was a know “disinformation agent”.

[philman_36]

But...but, these days you're all about conjecture, assumptions, insinuations and implications.

My how you have changed.

[Fantasywriter]

Ask anyone in marketing whether a book—even one exposing the criminality of the Deep State—sells more copies if it’s actively suppressed.

[Fantasywriter]

You are the one impinging motives.
