Really.  DR was that well known right winger TGregg & GreggyT.

 

Sad to see what was an "ol buddy" get lost down that Q hole. I hope he can find his way out of that mess.

 

Social Media will be the downfall of mankind.

That’s why we called it Greg’s stashes.

Greg was always stashing something that didn't really belong in the threads he did the stashing in and he wanted to read it later. I started the Greg's Stashes thread more as a post- all thread for miscellaneous stuff. It's turned into a thread that actually helps keep other threads on course (sure).

Greg was harping on the Deep State well before Q.

He was doing a lot of personal first hand research. You can call it what to you want.

It wasn't social media that took him down that road.  It was researching a project he was working on that had him speaking w/ a bunch of MI types which then morphed into a desire to try to prove 45 was colluding with Russian intelligence.

 

Only problem was, along the way, he found out it wasn't 45's team that was colluding with the Russians.  He was 3 years ahead of info that's been getting made public through declassifications & the like.  He's caught a tremendous amount of flack for his takes the past 3 years.  Thing is, in Russiagate & Spygate he's actually been shown to be far more right than wrong.

 

He still has his wild alien conspiracies too, but he was correct about a lot of stuff on this.  Not all of it, but a lot of it.  And if you look at the testimony that people gave under oath to the HSCI regarding Russian collusion versus what they say when not under oath on the cable news shows, he really has been a truly valuable resource.  He's still the same good guy he was when he was voting for 44, but he's seen a lot of stuff we haven't had access to.

I've always enjoyed your takes, I think you're a smart poster and a good person. But, I have to disagree with you on this. I don't believe DR had a psychotic break or anything like that. If you really want to see what a real break looks like, look at the radical left the last four years. I was a lifelong democrat who left the party because the party left me. DR has always been a good guy, he was respectful, patient and willing to admit when he's wrong. The numerous trolls who sprouted up the last few months were after him like a pack of hyenas. Everything he posted, they mocked, ridiculed and just kept it up.

I haven't seen you down here too much in PPP. Don't believe what these trolls are saying about him. This board has lost a good source who knew what he was talking about. It's sad some people in charge just can't see that.

Well; just think about what some people do outside of the internet. I mean; we are talking sincere mental illness here. Not only are they mostly incapable of functioning in a normal society; they have no control over their emotions and often reside outside the realm of reality mentally. The worst part about it is; these types are in positions of influence with education and entertainment. Never in my life, have I ever witnessed so many people sit around and pointing the finger and blaming others for the very stuff they do. 
 

So; I’m less concerned about a message board than I am of the real world but I understand what you mean. We have a mental illness problem in this country. It’s already made it’s way through most of the rest of the world and thanks to complacency; it’s now here. 
 

Don’t engage them. It gives them the feeing that they’re somehow more important than you and that they’re affecting your life. Engage with the normal ones who can carry on an adult conversation without stroking out.

Yeah, I agree. But, raiding is nothing new. The fact is, what we say on the Interwebs is REAL LIFE, to the extent we are saying it on the Interwebs. These are places of great influence, and political activists have and will continue to group together to raid website they deem "enemy territory." 

 

Don't engage them, but recognize the very real possibility that these are trolls from a leftist tranny discord or some other group known for raiding.

Can you identify “a leftist tranny discord ... known for raiding?”  Or is that just another hoax?

The poster known as DR was not the tgregg I knew and spoke with for years. I even engaged him recently in his Q thread, not knowing it was tgregg, but just interested in what the PPPs Q-leader had to say. It was pretty much as expected, and all the typical Q garbage.

 

I dont need to read what any other person says about him. I got to experience it for myself.

 

I hope he gets help.

 

You are right, I dont spend too much time down here. The front page showed a preview of a thread titled "Banned Usernames", and I clicked since that is a pretty intriguing thread title. Especially when it shows that SDS started it. I thought it was going to be about not being able to use handles like "deez nutts" or something, lol. Instead it lead down here and I got sucked into reading all this message board drama from a bunch of grown ass adults. Was surprised to see the reference to Tgreg and had to ask. I got my answer. So I'm going to bow the eff out of this basement and leave you all to it. See you on the main board. Go Bills.

It's tagged under "tranny." Go see for yourself.

 

I dont think you're part of it, and believe you may actually be a Bills' fan.

I had a lot of discussions with gregs over the years and he's probably one of the genuine good guys out there and I personally thought he got in too deep.

 

That being said, aside from taking a step back and realizing you' need to think about other stuff, has he really been wrong?

You nailed it. 
 

With the declass today, DR was proven correct about Brennan, Clinton and Obama. He was minimum 2 years ahead on this, and now would be a good time for the nudniks who tossed bombs his way to man up and acknowledge same. 
 

It’s not going to happen, but it should. 

[Capco]

I liked DR but he was a textbook conspiracy theorist.  

 

I had about half a dozen lengthy conversations with him intermittently.  He was always cordial and considerate but still had a snarky streak that would come out when pressed on certain issues (but we all have that to some degree).  

 

In one of our last conversations, he told me that Q is not a "source" after I questioned Q's credibility as a source.  About 10 posts earlier he claimed Q was a good source to someone else, and I called him on the flip-flop.  His subsequent explanation for these mental gymnastics was lackluster at best.  

 

That's where his problem was.  He would obtain these genuine nuggets of truth and then apply mental gymnastics to reach conclusions he was biased towards believing.  

 

I echo @DrDawkinstein's sentiment that the guy needs some help.  Professional, medical help.  I really hope he gets it because I do believe he has a good heart with good intentions.  He's just really off into the deep end right now.

Can confirm this.

 

In fact, his information predated even Trump's nomination, and he didn't believe it when he initially started digging in to it.  I have email exchanges from 2015 with him on the subject.  He was wrll ahead of social media and even Q on the subject.

I don't know about what you just claimed, but he has been ahead of the curve when it comes to the russian hoax. If you took time to read the latest documents that have been declassified, you would know he was telling the truth.

As I said, he would obtain nuggets of genuine truth but then draw outlandish conclusions.  I'm still waiting for the Clinton circle to go to jail. 

 

I liked speaking with him because he made me think about things, but never once did I get the feeling that he might be on to something.  There are certain beliefs he held that simply made his commentary indigestible at times.  His inability to reconcile the discrepancies I would point out did not help his cause either.  

 

"Question everything."  DR would be one of the first people to tell you that.  So I applied that to him and his commentary, and he often failed the test.
