A big portion of SA (and it's primary reason for existing) is to collect and mock terrible ####ty and awful parts of the internet, Molyneux being among them. He's actually a pretty big YouTube "celeb" and was a common sit-in on Joe Rogan's podcast until Joe realized he was a total ####bird.

NSFW!


Be ready for Weiner joke overload today. Then again without his dick pics would we even know this guys exists?
I saw a documentary about this guy (it's called "WEINER") and it did a pretty good job of painting him as a normal, driven guy who just happens to like "sexting" with other women. And sending them pictures of his penis.

In the grand scheme (as long as you aren't his wife) it seems like a pretty tame predilection. It was all between consenting adults, and nobody accused him of anything criminal (far as I know). He never even met these people, until one of them (at the prompting of Howard Stern) tried to confront him, reality TV style, and he was able to dodge that.

I don't know about "sex addiction", because he ain't having sex with them, but he's addicted to something. He just can't seem to stop with this behavior. He's definitely smart enough to know that he could be caught, and smart enough to know that he could do it without being caught, but here he is, again. Maybe he's addicted to humiliation? Is that a thing?


EDIT:

Aaaaaand, his wife just dumped him, as reported on CNN.

See, why didn't you just lead with this? Anyone so crazy that Joe Rogan will have nothing to do with them should probably be quarantined immediately.

If any of you even watched the whole thing, hopefully you're a bit more, enlightened. To the rest of you, let the brainwashing continue!
Things I learned watching 20 minutes of this video (I’m sorry, I couldn’t take anymore).

Donald Trump has explicated his methodology of how he seals a deal in The Art of the Deal. The media don’t seem to understand this. Donald Trump is a media expert and he routinely “out medias the media.”

Donald Trump is always honest with the media and always tells the truth. He doesn’t lie, he just shifts the ground so his answers are always positive.

Trump plays to peoples desires and wishes using “truthful hyperbole,” which is an innocent form of exaggeration. Sure, just talk to those who were bilked out of their money by Trump University. “Truthful hyperbole” is a Frank Luntz term for bull####.

I didn’t know this, but Trump is a discipline of Mahatma Gandhi. Things you didn’t know. I also didn’t know that Donald J. Trump has been discussed as a potential Presidential candidate. Again, things you just didn’t know. You would think that a guy with such a long history of being a possible Presidential candidate would have done something – anything - to build up his qualifications.

Linguistic gymnastics is a requirement if you are a Trump supporter. Taking Donald Trump’s own words, verbatim, is unfair. You have to be able to read into what he’s saying and know he’s only speaking the truth. So when Donald Trump says Mexico is sending drug dealers, criminals and rapists to America, he means something different. He’s just using “truthful hyperbole” to make his point. Even when using Trump’s own direct quote they can stand there and say, “Not true.” Black and white don’t matter to these people unless it is the color of someone’s skin.

To be a true Trump supporter you must whole heartedly buy into cognitive bias and live in that bubble that a certain HBO comedian and panel moderator likes to refer to. Taking a Trump quote and then going out and finding information that might explain away the stupidity is fair game.

I also learned that Trump can unilaterally ignore or amend trade deals more to his liking. Trump is all powerful and he can do these things without possible blowback. I was unaware that publishing a policy paper made laws and trade deals disappear.

I wasn’t aware of this, but the Trump campaign has been publishing policy papers in support of all of Donald’s comments. It may be the naïve academic policy wonk in me, but I have yet to see a single formal policy paper on anything from Trump. A one paragraph comment on a web site doesn’t qualify as a policy paper on a complex issue, at least in the government bodies I have worked in. This revelation is wonderful and will reduce my workload substantially! I no longer have to develop and deliver real position papers, I can deliver policy paragraphs and spend the rest of the day at the golf course!

The hateful left doesn’t disagree with your position, they just cut your source of revenue. I was under the impression that businesses had every right to make sponsorship decisions to protect their brand should a possible sponsoree hold values that conflict with that brand’s values? Wrong again. It is just the hateful left, all those corporations who are well known leftists, that lash out at The Donald and attack his revenue stream. Bastards!

Donald Trump controls the economy, especially for retailers. After Macy’s dropped his clothing line, in January of 2016, Trump supporters boycotted Macy’s resulting in a 4.7% decrease in holiday sales. Donald Trump is so powerful that his boycott affected sales before the boycott even began! The reported sales decrease was for sales over the holiday season, which means 2015 sales. The boycott was called in late January of 2016, which is after the holiday sales period. Unless this guy is claiming that the 2016 holiday sales season is going to be off 4.7%? *Gasp* Trump supporters can also see into the future!

Has anyone noticed that Donald J. Trump seems to get a lot of support from former Europeans, who moved to the United States because they felt the system was rigged in their home countries? And when I say rigged, I mean had protections for the common man that prevented con men from taking advantage of them, or spreading nasty hate speech without consequence? You know, nutbars?

Maybe they could make a holographic wall, and Tupac and Micheal Jackson's holograms could patrol it.

I wonder if Drumpf will hold a concert to commemorate his holographic wall. Headliners: The Gorillaz.

Probably something like this. Only problem is with the lack of islands nearby, that cumulative upkeep is going to be unsustainable by about the third year of his presidency.

The best part of the virtual wall is once again, like amnesty, it's an idea from a couple of the ####s he beat in the nomination race, Jeb Bush and Rick Perry. Trump at this point is straight up telling his supporters he's going to #### them over, and they're without a doubt going to bend over backwards to make excuses for him. Again I'd feel sorry for them, but they're deep in cult territory at this point so it's hard not to laugh. To be a fly on Ann Coulter's wall this past week as her booked has already become outdated...

Huma is one of the biggest targets of alt-right conspiracy theories, namely that she's in charge of the Muslim takeover of America and thus one of the biggest enemies of the white genocide movement. So no shocker he's going to the conspiracy well trying to make this seem like a big issue for Hillary.

'A fanatic is someone who won't change his mind, and won't change the subject'.

Remember the Family Guy episode where Lois runs for mayor and answers every question with "9/11"?

That's this guy.

I've never been on SA, I rarely go on reddit, I don't read Stormfront, and even I know how awful Molyneux is.

If Donald trump knows Weiner very well wouldn't that call into question his own judgement? I mean you only know someone very well if you have repeated meetings and what not with them.

Of course Trump is a pathological liar so it's doubtful he knows Weiner at all let alone well.
