Check out this "Win!" for the DEA in the War on Drugs!
that so weird, she was busted like a month ago over the exact same thing.
its mean seriously its super bizarro because it was literally all over every social media outlet and trended everyplace and yet she must have learned nothing.
i mean you couldnt log into the internet without seeing 3 articles about "the hot drug dealer whose dad is a dea agent". for the last month.
at least.
keep up the great work mumbles and definitely dont shitpost this forum into the depths of total banality.

Really? For the last month, AKA the last 30 days? Then why does a Google search of "DEA agent daughter" show this story blowing up only a few days ago,
and with the earliest blog site coverage per such a search on November 23?
But perhaps your reading comprehension skills, memory, and/or sense of time have been seriously degraded by early onset dementia, recreational drug use, or a petulant obsession to find something to bash me with, even if you can't back up such dickishness with objective data. Because a news story about this DEA agent's daughter DID blow up starting about 3 weeks ago, but was because her mug shot was so cherry, NOT because she her dad was reported to be a DEA agent.
Again, that latter fact wasn't reported by a blog until last week. But your revenge-adled brain probably can't keep such facts distinct in your mind since I showed your two-year old claim that "Bitcoin is donkdown" to be a bit premature.

P.S. How's that prediction of it tanking from about $200 since then (has it been 2 years already!) working out for you?
I love how the idiot social justice warriors on the internet have been screaming about how that "deathandtaxes" site dubbed her "adorable drug kingpin", saying that she's only being called adorable because she's white.
They really do have to find racism in everything.
Clearly the "adorable" part comes from the big smile in the mugshot and her generally angelic look.
Even worse, deathandtaxes apologized to these whiners, instead of just telling them to STFU.
The Young Turks have always had this "kids role playing as real newsmen" vibe. In its early days you could tell that the main host had set up a blue screen and desk in his spare bedroom, but he faked it 'till he made it. He put on the suit, pretended to be Alan Colmes, and it all worked out in the end. This kid appears to be doing the same thing but making less effort to hide it.
Another fun fact about the main host: he's an Armenian Genocide denier.

How is this relevant to this tread? The vid I included in the OP wasn't made by the Young Turks. And I don't subscribe to their YouTube Channel, so I don't yet know whether they have covered this topic...
... Searching ...
Yes, TYT did cover it:
But if you want to discuss which well-known media figures are or aren't Armenian Genocide deniers, please start another thread; this one is about the stupid War on Drugs. (And a potential confessional for Druff's secret bouts of "yellow fever".)
The TYT Network is a group of shows that are affiliated with The Young Turks. Also, probably 95% of the successful shows that are produced directly for broadcast on YouTube (not ones originally aired elsewhere, then replaced for YouTube) have a "youth vibe". It's a product of the medium those shows thrive in. A few examples in other genres include PewDiePie and Smosh for comedy, and SciShow and CrashCourse for education.
In other words, your comment about TYT having a "youth vibe" is akin to commenting on how a *particular* specie of land predator has legs (when most land predators have legs) versus the unstated comparison of how ocean-going ones usually have fins.
I wasn't fixating on youth, but production value. The genocide truther was in his late 30s when he started playing dress up on YouTube.
That's the same thing Druff was remarking on, which is why I commented on it as well. That's how casual conversation works. It's a valid observation to make, even if only loosely connected with TYT. That and the watermark should be reasonable answer as to why I even brought it up, but I don't suppose you were being sincere when you asked. You're just being a pedant, moving the goalposts, desperately researching Wikipedia to catch people in minor inaccuracies. You must be a blast at parties.
Looks alot like that Jewish girl on SNL. Wouldn't surprise me a bit if they threw together a sketch about this.
Here I did a side by side composite of the two, the actress is Vanessa Bayer
After rereading it, I see your point and apologize for being a hissy-fit bitch. And thank you for patiently taking the time to call me out on doing so. I really appreciate it, even though the crow tasted pretty bad for a bit.

And about your comment about Cenk Uygur denying the Armenian Genocide:
I can see from stuff found on the 'Net that he *did* write an opinion piece back in the early 1990s denying it. And publicly defended doing so in 1999. But he was also a conservative at the time he wrote it the original piece. And now he is a Progressive, having dramatically changed his stance on a number of issues from then. So, it is entirely possible that he has *also* changed his opinion on the Armenian Genocide (AG) during that span. And a tweet in 2010 by Uygar's Armenian American TYT co-host implies just that.
https://twitter.com/twt/status/17443931731
And in a 2007 Huffington Post opinion piece, Uygur mentioned that the prime minister of Turkey denied the Armernian Genocide, which Uygur (by then) considered "patently true".
And in 2012, he was sitting right next to Ana Kasparian during an interview on RT where she mentioned how Turkey needed to recognize that genocide, and Uygur didn't contradict her, which he usually does on TYT episodes when he disagrees with her. I found a reference to a reddit AMAA Uygar did a few years ago.There are countless people all across the world that deny many things that are patently true -- and we don't go to war with them over it. Senator Inhofe (R-OK) denies global warming. As far as I know we are not planning on invading Oklahoma over it.
But Ahmadinejad is the leader of an important country in the Middle East. Well, so is Tayyip Erdogan, the Prime Minister of Turkey. He denies the Armenian Genocide. Should we invade Turkey?

Why do you deny the Armenian Genocide?

Interesting. I remember seeing a video recently where they discussed it. Here's a video I found of him sitting next to Ana Kasparian where she says Turkey should recognize the genocide (around 2:45), and he doesn't seem to disagree.
And the mystery is why Uygar has been so silent about the matter lately, especially given that TYT completely ignored the 100 anniversary on the AG, as mentioned in a video Ana K put out on her own YouTube channel while on vacation.
But perhaps this passage from a blog article that is highly critical of Uygur for being coy about the matter includes the following possible explanation:
https://someinconvenientfacts.wordpr...controversy-3/
So, it is not accurate to *currently* call Uygur a "genocide denier" even though he publicly did so as recently as 16 years. Especially because of his 2007 Huffington Post piece in which he categorized the AG being "patently true". And which he also mentioned, although not using that precise language, on his TYT around that time.I had a chat with a man online and this is his opinion and input on this matter is in his words, “If Cenk were to accept the Armenian Genocide in public, he could be charged by Turkish authorities for ‘insulting Turkishness’. A charge which often leads to imprisonment, used to punish people who criticise the Ottoman Empire’s human rights record. Cenk has family in Turkey whom he visits. Acknowledging the genocide publicly might jeopardise his ability to see his family without risking his freedom.”
And to relate this discussion back to that of thread post, I was a strong supporter of the War on Drugs for decades. And as recently as 2006/2007. Now, I consider it "patently true" that the War of Drugs is, at a minimum, an abject failure. And I'm probably as pigged headed as Uygar!
So, yeah. People with strong opinions on some topics *can* change their minds. And I believe that Uygur has also done so on the AG.
