We don’t have “undercover camera footage with interviews.” What we have, at least from what I saw hopping around the video in the OP, is footage that is HEAVILY edited, interspersed with OKeefe telling the viewer how to interpret it. Even by Okeefe standards, this one was diced up a lot.You don't believe the undercover camera footage with interviews??
Completely and totally do I disagree with that opinion.I was quite clear
Anything coming from O Keefe is a disgusting lie
This will be a moot point when we succumb to the micro-plastics that we’ve pumped into the environment, lo, these past 100 years.Most folks that I know in Missouri do not believe that mankind is causing climate change.
Then you obviously haven’t been paying much attention to him.Completely and totally do I disagree with that opinion.
I have been paying a lot of attention to his videos. And I still believe what the people in those undercover videos are saying about the places in which they are working. They don't know they are being taped. They believe that they are speaking truth to that undercover person.Then you obviously haven’t been paying much attention to him.
Is it extreme to say that “anything” he says is a lie? Sure. But he has lied in his videos. A lot. And even when there haven’t been investigations uncovering those lies, his tactics are pretty easy to spot. He’s a liar who ought not be trusted.
But you aren’t hearing what they spoke. You’re hearing their words chopped up, selectively edited and presented in a way that jives with the narrative that Okeefe is literally spoon-feeding to you. In the sections I watched, there wasn’t a single piece of footage more than a couple seconds long.I have been paying a lot of attention to his videos.

I have watched multiple O'Keefe videos, and in those videos I have watched many of them with footage that is far longer than just a few seconds long.But you aren’t hearing what they spoke.

And that is exactly the response I would expect from you as well.Textbook and expected response.
Knowledge is power.

Probably too quick. But that doesn’t mean he’s not a liar.If James O'Keefe was doing undercover video reporting of conservatives, how quick to believe the videos would the progressive left be?
In my experience, intellectually lazy people are easily manipulated by liars like O Keefe.That’s nice. I was describing the video in the OP.

Seriously, what is with your side being so eager to eat up everything this guy says? He’s not even a competent fraud. What he’s doing is obvious.
In my experience, intellectually lazy people are easily manipulated by liars like O Keefe.
Far right wing folks are very susceptible to manipulation through Facebook, Twitter, and Fox News.
These folks are very myopic in their views, are short on common sense, and never bother to validate information beyond it’s original source.
“You can’t reason a person away from an opinion that they did not reason themselves into.”—(Attributed to) Jonathan Swift (paraphrased)I understand being easily manipulated.
What I don't understand is refusing to reject it or even become suspicious of it once the manipulation is pointed out.
