The Truth is Out There - and JPR has it!
I went to JPR to read what’s REALLY going on. Some enlightening comments here:
“DOS attacks correspond with Ecuador Embassy attack. Too coordinated. Too coincidental. Too massive. Fascist pigs!â€
“The desperation is palpable. Pretty obvious that the DDOS and the Assange situation are linked, and it thus follows that the US government is the source of the DDOS.â€
“I imagine it's site-specific, with a few other major ones thrown in to make it look like it’s just a major, haphazard attack. So proud that this tiny, nearly-brand-new site has been included.â€
“If the DNC wasn't scared, they wouldn't be doing this shit.â€
“Idiotic is the only word that comes to mind to describe Assange’s penchant to announce beforehand what he plans to release. Had he just released whatever he has on Brazille and Kaine without the announcement, I’m willing to bet the internet would not be under attack today.â€
“Yet access to "the DUmp" is just fine. Hmm … imagine that.â€
Along with the above, the other top CTs on JPR today are: Assange was scooped-up in the middle of the night and is on his way to the States, OR Assange has been assassinated by … wait for it … Pamela Anderson, who recently visited him and brought him a vegan sandwich that was apparently laced with poison.
They say you "can't make this shit up" - but if you do, you'll find a captive audience on JPR that's willing to believe every word of it.
BTW, the posters who are convinced that JPR was specifically targeted (because we all know how influential it is) are completely ignoring the fact that the site admins had a warning up yesterday morning saying the site would be off-line intermittently while upgrades were made.
There's lots of primitive comments, including a rare appearance by Jugs, all of them agreeing with Widder Nan; it looks to me as if Manny had jumped off a seaworthy ship onto a foundering rowboat with a hole in the bottom.

25. I'm glad they've cleared out of here
The collective intelligence of DU went up significantly when that group of nutbags departed.
Not quite; the big guy in Bellevue still has a foot on Skins's island, and shows up once in a while.
