Quote from: DGuller on October 10, 2025, 08:58:53 AMI wanted to read the news articles to find out more about this year's Nobel Peace Prize winner.  One thing I learned about her is that she's not Trump.  Still going through them to see if I can learn anything else.

I am very confused by the oh wow it wasn't Trump angle.

It is incredible how much everyone is under this guy's spell. As if there was even the remotest chance that a destructive aggressive asshole would get it.

Quote from: Tonitrus on October 11, 2025, 10:11:49 AMI believe his "argument" was again being more about Tylenol than the circumcision itself...so that is kind of a mix of RFK nuttery and misleading reporting.

His statement was a direct one about circumcision, and an indirect one about Tylenol. The reporting is quoting him and so not misleading.
Quoting can be misleading as well if done out of context.  That's especially so for incoherent or rambling people who may require a very large context window for their quotes to be interpreted as intended.

I am not sure what point you are making here. What do you believe RFK Jr intended us to take from his statement, and how can you tell that that is what he intended?

incoherence is best translated by incoherent people? :unsure:

Including the winner, it seems...

I did see her described as far right in L'Humanite. I know it's the paper of the left (like the Morning Star here) but still :lol:

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

An exclamation, raised eyebrow, "ah, well nevertheless" something like that.

So you wanted to tell us you have something to say but would prefer not to say it?

AFAICT it's the same as "something something, but...."

As in, I think you're a wonderful human being, but....
