>I've acknowledged the classified meeting.

You'll have more luck in the future if when you demand someone "Prove it." and they deal with your attitude and do, you respond with "wow, thanks, you were right. But there's an issue in that...." Also not starting your reply with an irrelevant screen that implies the only reason I posted what I posted is I listen to "worthless pieces of shit," "morons," "provincial shitheads," with "virtual pitchforks and torches," that I'm part of a "tyranny of stupidity" eating "morsels of meat being fed to the hungry, ignorant masses."

You have such vitriolic hatred against people you deem to be ignorant, yet you were the one who was ignorant and wrong. And now want to just brush over it and try to make me argue one some other grounds where you think you'll win, while not acknowledging that you should really be as hard on yourself as you were on some imagined enemy. Apologize or fuck off and be in your own company.

I know it may be hard for you to remember, but I said:

>>the government is holding classified briefings over the drone activity.

And you said

>Prove it.

So I proved it. You bitched and moaned about AI and were probably upset the information wasn't being delivered to you through a television, but in your thrashing you made the mistake of acknowledging that yes, in fact, there were classified briefings over the drone activity.

Now, embarrassed at your mistake and probably wet with your own drool, you challenge me to tell you why I'm still whining about whether the matter of what the drones are doing is settled or not. That's called moving the goal posts.

When you're willing to acknowledge that you spoke without knowledge and I proved what you challenged me to prove, we can continue the conversation, and I'll continue to explain things to you at a level that you understand. An apology would be nice too, but I won't hold my breath.

You don't know what perplexity.ai is? You don't know that the little numbers are called citations, and you can click them to get information from the source?

Think of those little numbers like the numbers on your television remote control. If you hit "1" you get CNN, "2" Fox news, "3" MSNBC, etc. And then instead of waiting 50 minutes to hear a factoid, the words show up on the screen and you can read and think about them for yourself.

>And to refute this link as proof: in one area the summary calls it closed door sessions. In another it calls it classified

Yes, boomer. Do you know why the summary says that? Because the article says that: https://www.nbcnews.com/politi...

The article called it a classified briefing. The article also called it a closed-door briefing. Do you know why? Because classified briefings are closed-door briefings.

Golly gee whiz. What I said is true. My link provides you with numerous sources that show it's true. The federal government has shared conflicting information, and you don't actually have an argument or anything to say, other than bitching about AI--which I knew you'd do, and that's why I used it.

Too stupid to learn.

Doesn't that defeat the purpose? Why not a password at that point?

Also what do you mean, "that" paranoid? We're in a post-Snowden world. Arguments that rely on "erm, actually, illegal government surveillance is rare and they don't actually care enough about you to want to tap your MODEM phone line" no longer work.

You sound like a conspriacy theorist, claiming, without evidence, that the words of Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas and other government officials are lies or didn't happen. New Jersey assemblywoman Dawn Fantasia said the drones exist and are up to 6' in diameter.

So what gives you the confidence to engage in a conspiracy theory and say the drones don't exist, contrary to all evidence?
