RE: BLOW BY BLOW DISECTION OF NY TIMES ARTICLE ON PIZZAGATE

in #pizzagate8 years ago (edited)

Thank you so much for reformatting and reposting this here. One thing that I found very interesting and had flagged in my own notes about the November 6, 2016 article at Washington City Paper which Kang didn't refer to is this section:

"Why, they wondered, did Podesta have a handkerchief with a "pizza-related" map on it? And why did Podesta get so many emails about eating pizza?

"The answer to any reasonable person would be that Podesta eats pizza sometimes. Indeed, Alefantis says, "pizza's always a big thing in politics."

So according to James Alefantis, "pizza is always a big thing in politics." Hmm... I'm just dropping this here for possible future reference.

Sort:  

Yes, thank you for sharing this.
It's also interesting how explanation is offered as to what a handkerchief with a pizza related map on it even is. It's becoming more and more difficult to understand how people can read something like this and not sense that is heavily biased.

Yes interesting indeed. Did you see this further article at the Washington City Paper dated November 15, 2016 with the "Active Cleanup Box" at the top?

There are a lot of comments with links to videos etc. on it from people who are not buying the narrative. No wonder when Alefantis is quoted as as follows, along with everything else, in particular the photos he posted on his Instagram:

"The most sickening part of this vicious attack has been the stealing of Instagram images, Facebook images of children, minors, aged 5, 7, and 8 years old that are then slapped across their chat boards as nothing but pawns," Alefantis says. "Yes, it’s scary to be attacked, it’s dangerous for business, but it's disgusting and filthy of these people to be posting photos on these websites. ... Someone should be prosecuting these people."

"Alefantis says the photos have been lifted from his personal social media accounts, and those of his friends and employees—not from the restaurant. "Kids in the restaurant are completely safe, none of these people are going there, they're cowards," he says, emphasizing that this scandal only exists on the internet. Inside the restaurant it's business as usual."

The article also links to the Reddit thread: http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/news/article/20842321/the-consequences-of-pizza-gate-are-real-at-comet-ping-pong

An inverted version of that may well be the truth. Is it "stealing" when photos are "lifted" from the public domain? Does copyright apply? Is anyone aware of any victims, survivors and/or witnesses coming forward to what actually goes on at those all ages music events and whatever other parties go on there?

Have you see the post about the alleged private area on the Comet Ping Pong website? Am I over my question quota?

I hadn't seen that clean up thing, but funny you should show me that now when I just posted an article about censorship. Alefantis' statement is laughable. I wonder if he said it himself or if the so-called journalists are just writing shit on his behalf.
These articles from the MSM never seem to touch on the perverted and disturbing imagery found on his instagram, as well as in the restaurant itself. Also, the bands that have been playing there are from age appropriate and seem to be sporting paedophilic references in their music videos. They need to stop painting him a victim and provide the public with some much deserved answers.
I do not believe copyright applies in the context that images are being used for, and I certainly wouldn't call it theft if no one is left out of pocket.
You can find some footage of one of the events on YouTube, it is really disturbing actually--If the person is talking about what it sounds to me like he is talking about. Other than that, it is difficult to uncover much information on what goes on in there. I think it seems that there is a culture of its own surrounding this pizza place, and they are not big on sharing their secrets with outsiders.
Yes I have seen that. It was asking for passwords to download image files, which is most suspicious for a pizza place. I was unable to verify the veracity of this post however, so I do not know definitively if that image was genuinely taken from Comet Ping Pong Pizza, or Besta Pizza. With all that has been verified though, this arrogance would not come as a surprise to me.
There is no quota lol. I'm always happy to converse with others, especially about important issues.
