Jack Pine nutjobs and the Hillary pedophilia conspiracy.

[Tavarious Jackson]

The nutjobs at Jack Pine Radicals humped this conspiracy hard. It's not the only freaky nut case conspiracy they humped. I hope we learn from this and give those people ZERO credibility.

[JI7]

1. fuck them, i always knew they were right wing trolls when they were attacking Obama

for years on this site.

[Tavarious Jackson]

2. yep.

They're Putin friendly.

[WhiteTara]

29. Yes, I know one who keeps asking me why

we shouldn't be great friends with Russia.

[TwilightZone]

37. Jill Stein, Ben Norton, and a few other Salon writers...

spent a great deal of time talking about how much worse "we" were than Putin and Russia. They largely seem to have bought into that. They certainly spent a lot of time plugging Russia Today on DU.

[wcmagumba]

3. I was not familiar with JPR...

but went there and lurked a time or two while DU was down...wow, read through just a few threads and realized something was way way off base with the site and many posts...conspiracy out the ole wazoo! (if wazoo was a thing)...

[jalan48]

4. Not sure what you are talking about-here's the banner at the top of their first page.

"All pizzagate CT posts will automatically be removed. Period.

Anyone who continues to post this particular conspiracy theory takes the chance of being suspended."

5. Closing the barn door after the horse has left...nt

[TwilightZone]

6. Exactly.

[Squinch]

7. The fact that they had to say this tells us all we need to know about their members.

[progressoid]

15. To be fair, there have been no shortage of crazy CT posts on DU as well.

DU and DU2 were rife with nuts.

[melman]

18. Why be fair

when you can rant about a website that is very easily ignored and no one has to go to?

[hueymahl]

31. LOL!

Why be fair? Because it feels a lot better to blame someone else than it does to search your own soul.

[charlyvi]

38. Soul.

[hueymahl]

39. Ha!

Thanks, fixed.

[tammywammy]

17. That was put up after some of their posters went nutso with this pizza pedophile conspiracy.

[RonniePudding]

19. Are we supposed to be impressed?

Right wing slime balls and gullible left wing idiots, as someone else said.

[jalan48]

22. Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

You shouldn't visit their site if it upsets you so.

[NCTraveler]

23. Sometimes it's fun to see the mindset of a Trump voter. nt.

[NCTraveler]

25. No clue what you are talking about with your reply.

Seems it wasn't meant for my post.

[MFM008]

26. They are insane and idiots

There's their mindset.....

[RonniePudding]

30. I didn't visit their site.

Did I touch a nerve?


Good.

What's your JPR handle?

[JudyM]

34. Thanks for the honest report. i don't have an account there but I disagree with the demonization.

[BainsBane]

8. They never saw a far right wing conspiracy theory they didn't agree with completely

the fact is they are right wingers. They just don't admit it. They defend Trump and the White Supremacists. They are cheering on the rise of fascism because just like the deplorables, they are motivated by an intense hatred for Democratic voters, especially women and people of color. They constantly whine about how oppressed white people are. In some ways they are worse than the run of the mill White Supremacist because they are arrogant about their shocking level of ignorance. It's one thing to be a stupid and another to be arrogant about being so completely fucking stupid.

You'll observe the level of misogyny and racism on DU has declined dramatically in their absence. They were always the most reactionary members of the site.

[TwilightZone]

9. It's one of the dumbest conspiracy theories in recent memory.

The fact that they were plugging it tells me one of two things is true:

1) They're overloaded with trolls
2) They're gullible idiots

[SidDithers]

11. That said, there's much less woo at DU...

which is a good thing

Sid

[BainsBane]

12. Less woo and less rape apology

Though I have to admit the Doctor Oz thread helped me get through a personal tragedy I was going through at the time.

[TwilightZone]

13. I'd have to agree.

When a few of the people who trolled DU (and ended up at JPR) kept talking about how traffic here would go down when they left, my response was usually:

"And your point?"

I can do without trolls, regardless of which side of the aisle they're supposedly on. Constant vitriol doesn't accomplish much.

[mcar]

10. No surprise there

[Adrahil]

14. That place is a hive of...

right wing nuts and gullible left-wing idiots.

I find it heart-breaking that the original Jackpine Radical's name is associated with that cesspit!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

28. That makes me sad - that the name of DUer Jackpine Radical,

who passed away last year, was used for what eventually turned out to be a nest of lunatics. I signed up at JPR when it was first created because I was worn out from all the hateful Bernie-bashing on DU, but before long it started to go down a pretty weird path so I stopped even reading there. The human Jackpine Radical seemed like a gentle soul, and it's very sad that his DU name has been taken for purposes that probably would have horrified him.

[Gothmog]

16. The JPR Nutjobs are really into conspiracy theories

[bravenak]

20. Nice to see you back!!!

[ismnotwasm]

21. The only hight note; It took away a lot of the most unpleasant/unstable posters from here

One thing I leaned this election cycle is just how much crazy can be hidden behind a keyboard.

But yeah. They are disturbed

[WhiteTara]

27. They are also known as the JACK ASS RADICALS

in many circles. I was surprised to not see their website name on the new list of fake news.

[Tavarious Jackson]

32. They are the white nationalist of the left

[Iggo]

33. Quit dragging that bullshit over here.

[herding cats]

35. I'm just glad they're gone from here.

There were too many of them who wanted desperately to believe any, and everything bad about Dems they had labeled evil. Nothing was too illogical, implausible, hateful or flat out nutty if it was a weapon to wield against their imagined foe.

Voltaire was correct when he said, "Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities."

[hrmjustin]

36. Can't say I am surprised! I think they were infiltrated by Trump supporters and some who were here

let their hatred of Hillary get the better of them. And some were just gop trolls pretending to be on our side.

Glad they are there and not spreading that stuff here.
