This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.
The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

I'm sick and tired of these holier-than-thou media giants, who literally made the riots much worse than they otherwise would have been, lying to our faces.

Bring popcorn. Go Project Veritas! :D

I think the opponents have A LOT of money too. The more they can expose these bastards the better I say.

That's great but he's got it now when he's asking people who don't for donations.

How much does he have? How much will this cost? Can you provide a budget, so we can see whether the ask is excessive?

No?

Twitter has crazy-deep pockets, and lawsuits can get hella expensive. Armchair pundits who say "that sounds like a lot" typically have no idea what they're talking about.

I'm going with the "no idea what they're talking about" option then.

People on video literally admitting to things is irrelevant; the MSM fact checked the MSM and everything they say is true, unless it's false in which case it's still true if it shows Drumpf is to blame.
It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.

PV hasn't won against NYT yet; the judge just ruled that the suit cannot be dismissed out of hand and that it can proceed forward.

This is usually where smarter people start offering settlements, because they do not want discovery.

Right, so Project Veritas are going after NYT, CNN, and Twitter all at the same time. More power to them.

Greetings!

Hi there, Trond! I hope Project Veritas breaks them all. It's beautiful to see them all so smug as they get ploughed in court!

Thank goodness those people who dont have money to donate to Project Veritas have you to complain on their behalf.

Oh, no argument. I hope PV sinks a meathook into their guts, figuratively speaking.

The Sandmann lawsuits are still out there as well. Sandmann was able to wring a settlement from two of the six already. It'll be interesting to see if they opt to settle as well.
