Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.
Quote:That social media share described the document as "a fantastic research piece put together by a couple of college students, Rodolfo Cortes Barragan & Axel Geijsel." That document (properly termed a "paper," not a "study," as the latter term implies some form of professional vetting) concluded with the statement that the data examined by its author "suggest that election fraud is occurring in the 2016 Democratic Party Presidential Primary election" and that "this fraud has overwhelmingly benefited Secretary Clinton at the expense of Senator Sanders" Analysis: ?The [data] show a statistically significant difference between the groups. [voting patterns with and without a paper trail] States without paper trails yielded higher support for Secretary Clinton than states with paper trails. As such, the potential for election fraud in voting procedures is strongly related to enhanced electoral outcomes for Secretary Clinton. In the Appendix, we show that this relationship holds even above and beyond alternative explanations, including the prevailing political ideology and the changes in support over time.
Quote:In New Mexico in 2004 Kerry lost all precincts equipped with touchscreen machines, irrespective of income levels, ethnicity, and past voting patterns. The only thing that consistently correlated with his defeat in those precincts was the presence of the touchscreen machine itself. In Florida Bush registered inexplicably sharp jumps in his vote (compared to 2000) in counties that used touchscreen machines, including counties that had shown record increases in Democratic voter registration.
Quote:According to Steven F. Freeman, a visiting scholar at the University of Pennsylvania who specializes in research methodology, the odds against all three of those shifts occurring in concert are one in 660,000. ''As much as we can say in sound science that something is impossible,'' he says, ''it is impossible that the discrepancies between predicted and actual vote count in the three critical battleground states of the 2004 election could have been due to chance or random error.''

Quote:Originally posted by 1kiki: US accuses Russia of cyber attacks Well ! This was certainly an interesting article. I’ve been following this particular topic ever since it came up, and I actually click on the links in the articles and go backwards to previous articles, then click on the links in those articles to go backward to previous articles … and so on … until I hit a dead end.

Quote:Originally posted by 1kiki: Thanks for the bump THUGGR! As always, an idiot. As always, useful. In any case, I'm sure no one, except someone as tedious as I am, actually reads through entire articles, and then clicks on every link going backwards. But I find it useful, because I always want to see what, exactly, am I being sold. What DO they expect me to believe? And how low exactly do they rate my intelligence according to the 'swill' rating of what they present? And also, having gone through multiple 'sources' over a long time, it makes my claims REALLY hard to refute. In this case, having read through MANY articles (this being but one example) and having tracked back through EVERY active link, I can state with confidence that there is - literally - no government evidence publicly available to back up its claims about Russian hacking. But WAIT! there's more! More than that, I get to observe how gullible the overwhelming majority of people are, and how very, VERY little it takes to turn the attention of the slobbering masses in the direction of choice. I think you all are god awful imbecilic for believing ANYthing the government says. And you do it with such imbecilic gusto, too!

Quote:Chances are, you've encountered a narcissist. You know, that someone who somehow manages to revert every topic of conversation back to herself. Easy to see from this latest post you do think very highly of yourself.
