"The Fox spokesperson also accused Dominion of cherry-picking quotes from evidence in its filing."

I mean, yeah, the person said that, and we used that person's letter as corroboration for our story, but you're ignoring all the parts where they blamed you! I see no reason to think that the fact that this person was a time travelling ghost in any way diminishes their credibility. Stop being so ablist against decapitated people!

Also, Dominion did cherry pick quotes. B/c they were making a case for themselves. Its' fox's job to defend the case, not dominions. So, yeah obviously Dominion picked the stuff that supported their position.

The Fox spokesperson who said that should be thrown into the sea.

Your honor, the DA is clearly cherry picking his evidence. He only showed the security footage of me killing that guy. What about the 23 hours and 50 minutes of footage from that day where I wasn't committing murder?

To be fair, the average decapitated person presumably has far more intelligent takes on policy than modern MAGA Republican nutbags, and at least thrice the cognitive function of Boebert and Greene combined

”Powell opened her segment by making unsubstantiated claims about ‘a massive and coordinated effort’ to ‘steal’ the 2020 election.”

There WAS a massive and coordinated effort to steal the election…

Fortunately, it failed…

To be clear, she said "internally decapitated." I take that to mean she realizes her brain is decapitated from reality and she knows she's insane...yet "she still lives." Much like this stupid conspiracy theory.

Its an actual thing but usually for whiplash in car accident victims. Your skull can sever from your spine internally. Its why people get neck collars when paramedics show up to accidents regardless of severity because it doesn't take much force.

youwigglewithagiggle t1_j918hxq wrote

And why it's strongly advised for carseats to face backwards until kids are about 4, even if they've technically outgrown the position. Their bones aren't all fused together, which puts them at much greater risk of internal decapitation even without neck wounds!

Some people believe things in their heart so much that faslifying evidence is justified, or have no evidence but need to communicate how powerful their beliefs are as if it'll just download into other people.

It plays hand in hand with the "God said" types who mistake their inner monologue for a diety commanding them.

Very disturbing. And makes me happy that I'm moderately well aware of what's "real" and what is "crazy." I only say moderately because i could be wrong, and try to allow for that. Only a fool is certain

DataSquid2 t1_j8zz57j wrote

You can be certain of something and change your mind later when presented with new evidence. Sometimes it's best to just commit. Especially in this case where you're already living your life under the assumption that you can tell the difference between reality and a fever dream.

But maybe you are weird and question yourself frequently if you're experiencing reality or not, and if that's the case that just seems unhealthy to me.

Either way, I'll continue to be certain that my reality is real until there's evidence to the contrary.

lalauna t1_j905rcb wrote

I have been told before that I'm weird. That's okay. I do question lots of things that i don't need to, probably, but that's just me. I think it's good to be open to new evidence

It always reminds me of that community of people who by all accounts believe they were secret psychic warriors deployed to Mars to fight space Nazis, or aliens , or alien Nazis who then had their memories erased and we're returned to civilian life on earth.

[deleted] t1_j90fvcc wrote

I think you misunderstood the article. Sidney Powell claimed that people were alleging election fraud. The email is being shown as an example of someone claiming there was election fraud. Not that Sidney Powell was claimed that she was the one who was claiming to be a decapitated time traveler. Not defending her or Fox or trump at all. Just trying to clarify.

11

justcoolertalk t1_j91rupp wrote

That is not true. Sidney forwarded the email as “evidence” of fraud. The article doesn’t say Powell wanted to show people were alleging election fraud. She was saying that was actual evidence.

dkromd30 t1_j8ymblh wrote

So, let me get this straight -

Powell, an attorney, forwarded this email to a major news organization*, containing psychotic ramblings and magical thinking, labeling it “evidence” of voter fraud…..

Is this just cynically sourced messaging from Powell? Does she find this person to be credible/reliable? Would she put this person on the stand?

Absolutely fucking nuts.

*I use the term “news organization” very loosely here.

OmegaSeven t1_j90y6b3 wrote

She's currently an attorney, I don't expect that to be the case indefinitely.

There is a real reckoning happening in the legal profession in the last couple years, a lot of lawyers that act in bad faith are facing consequences for bad behavior that was previously more tolerated. Of course it's the legal community so it's happening slowly and methodically.

I'd rather suffer whatever penalty I was facing than to admit that I believed anything in an email claiming to be from a "headless, time-traveling entity." Even the Nigerian Prince is more believable than that.

he77bender t1_j90g9ib wrote

TO BE FAIR, internal decapitation is a slightly different thing than regular decapitation, and it is at least POSSIBLE to survive depending on how exactly it happens. Not that I believe it happened to this lady, but from what I can tell what she's actually claiming is that

A) she survived a severe but theoretically survivable injury as a child,

and

B) now she has visions that tell her things.

Which is still completely bonkers of course, but I do feel like it's a more common, down-to-earth type of crazy compared to "I received this email from the ghost of Anne Boleyn".

And honestly? I'm kind of disappointed. The 'headless time specter' angle is so much more fun. Another headline over-promising, what else is new...
