Petition to Ban David Seaman
34 2017-02-13 by WarSanchez
This guy has not only been stealing other's work and passing it off as his own since the inception of PG, he also trolls for clicks and views with imminent arrest tweets. Which he eventually walks back and acts the victim when exposed. He also shamelessly plugs his donation sites ad nauseum. For christs sakes he wrote a book on making yourself famous by any means necessary.
There are better, troll free sources out there guys. Can we please ban him as a source?

I give it till noon for arrest to be made. If not, then im all in to ban him.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
That's reasonable.
n/a soonerchad 2017-02-13
Didn't he already admit his "source" was wrong about arrests?
n/a a9832941 2017-02-13
yup, then spun some bullshit about how he was the one being set up lol
n/a macadelic1901 2017-02-13
Lets ban Seaman!
n/a Rayfloyd 2017-02-13
How about just down voting his stuff? you know, use Reddit's tools as they should be...
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
I do. He and Alex Jones are the only non MSM sources I go out of the way to downvote for their blantant whoring.
I don't want him banned off this sub, I want him banned as a source of people's info. Like, as in, make users aware he is a troll trying to get fame, notoriety, and money off of unsuspecting folk.
n/a greetingearthlings 2017-02-13
At least Alex Jones is entertaining, Seaman is straight garbage.
n/a AwayWeGo112 2017-02-13
Sounds like you're jealous, tbh. Alex Jones works hard and has broken stories. Seaman isn't in the same category at all and the fact that you put them together hurts your credibility.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Nice to know my credibility gets held to a higher standard than both of these clowns! Gives me joy.
n/a ftheec 2017-02-13
Clowns censor content.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Asking people to not post his bullshit isn't censoring him. But I wouldn't expect a 5 day old account to know that, when ALL of your posts are pushing a narrative.

Look at you dance.
Censorship isn't welcome here. You try to censor me because of my account age and posting history.
All you are doing here is pushing censorship of information you don't like. You want to have a meaningful conversation or are you going to play games ???
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
I never said let's censor pizzagate. Did I? Hmmmm... So now you are reaching and lying.
We are only as good as our sources, something Mr. Seaman should learn. Banning him as a source isn't censorship. Think critically for once.
n/a ftheec 2017-02-13
Banning content is censorship.
Your excuses are just that, excuses to censor content
n/a VolunteerShill 2017-02-13
You just don't get it. He only wants to censor what he doesn't like
n/a The_Watterboy 2017-02-13
The guy is a troll - does anybody seriously not realize that now?
n/a alieninception25 2017-02-13
or you know why dont u click it i mean nobody is forcing u to click his link lol QQ
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
I don't but we can't be one of those subs that claims not to fall for MSM propaganda then continually fall for this troll.
n/a ASCAdmin 2017-02-13
Uh... Down vote?
And banning? We aren't even mods. Not sure how we can do it. As much as I dislike him, any form of censorship is bad.
I'm enjoying his meltdown live on Twitter now. Hahaha...
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
I suck at twitter, don't like thier reply/thread feed system.
He's a troll looking for money, that is hardly censorship.
n/a ASCAdmin 2017-02-13
Well, it's your loss. His Twitter is quite entertaining.
I'll have to disagree with you on that. IMO, people should be allowed to speak freely, even if it is manipulative BS. However, it is up to the community to highlight that whatever is said is manipulative BS.
I personally don't like the ban idea, not only because it's not feasible, it's bad in general. Banning Seaman for his antics today, can be a sign of banning truthers tomorrow.
As individuals, we must always affirm our stance on non-censorship, no matter how crappy the post or person is.
n/a naturalproducer 2017-02-13
Reddit search for "David Seaman" "New" and it's blatantly obvious that Seaman's got a whole team of sockpuppet accounts that downvote to oblivion, meanwhile, the top comments are post-positive. Mods?
n/a RetractingLinguist 2017-02-13
He's not stealing anyone's work. He's reporting it. He also reports leaks he gets. What should he do? Not report them and wait to see what happens? His job is to report info. Besides, that's his choice how he wants to disclose data. It's also the choice of people not to listen to him if the data he provides has no value to them. The mass of people who think there's something up with pizzagate indicates that people think there's value to the things he posts. It's pretty much that simple.
As to the rhetoric that if his sources give him bad data this somehow makes his opinion worthless - that's a bit silly. Even it he was reporting his opinion and he was wrong, so what? People are not perfect. This is reality. The expectation of perfection by Heroes is a big lie, and has always been a big lie - thanks for perpetuating this ridiculous program which keeps us all waiting for someone to save us.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Not sourcing your info on your video reports is stealing. Just because he reoorts it doesn't mean it is not stealing someone's work. He needs to give credit but he doesn't because he fears losing audience to his sources.
n/a RetractingLinguist 2017-02-13
This is bullshit. Since DS references the same sources on PG as anyone else, everyone knows what the source material is, and he's talking about that source material. The only exception to this is when he brings in data that's been personally leaked to him. Since everybody knows the sources, your criticism becomes one of form and not substance. Pretty weak.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Also, as a "reporter" or "journalist" he has to double check his sources because it is HIS credibility on the line for not doing the basics of journalism.
n/a RetractingLinguist 2017-02-13
Says who? Who arbitrates who someone can express themselves? Is that your job?
When he is acting as a reporter reporting leaks, his only responsibility is to report leaks and let people judge for themselves.
n/a secondcomingOFfex 2017-02-13
Burn some books this weekend while you're at it.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
I will, both the Bible and Koran!
Both bullshit, just like this guys "reporting".

Your push to censor content isn't welcome here
Sick of hearing you and a dozen other accounts cry censorship when you don't like something.
This is the exact same MO as a former mod who tried to rule 11 This sub into pro Hillary content.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Awww did I hurt your feelings because I said I'd burn the bible?
n/a ftheec 2017-02-13
Failing the Turing test
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Awww... Now I'm a bot sent here to mess with you? The mental gymnastics you are doing to discredit anyone that doesn't agree with you. Come on, hit me with more technical jargon so you don't have to look past the fact that this guy is 100% genuine bullshit.

Please don't ban anybody from this sub.
It's fascist tactics.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
His twitter doesn't contain any news or info and his videos are plagiarism at best. Also, I guess I could have phrased it better than ban. i'd rather see him excluded from being a legitimate source since he just trolls.
n/a CaptainApollyon 2017-02-13
Fascist
n/a appropriatenull 2017-02-13
banning things is a slippery slope.
As an online community we are hopefully gathered to hone our discernment while seeking objectivity. Testing this discernment is good and this fellow fails my personal test.
David Seaman is acting out his playbook. "Dirty Little Secrets of Buzz"
If you have given this guy your time or money you've been played.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Exactly, he has been mooching off the community and trolling the sub and yet people take his word over those that have facts that he is 100% bullshit.
n/a AwayWeGo112 2017-02-13
Never about this book, where can I find it?
n/a truguy 2017-02-13
It's almost like his source set him up for these attacks calling for him to be barred.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
He claimed his source was wikileaks, then he walked it back to claim they were too big to name.
How about he actually follows througj for once.
Accountability and Credibility 100% necessary for a reporter. He lacks both.
n/a truguy 2017-02-13
At 3:19 on Feb 12 he said "my source's confidentiality might dry up." If his source was Wikipedia, not sure how this would make sense.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
None of his stuff makes sense. He's an attention whore doing it for money.
There are better reporters out there not begging for money.
n/a truguy 2017-02-13
I've watched many of his videos and I've never seen him ask for money.
n/a FORKinmyDICK 2017-02-13
Petition to ban you then.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
If I was trolling the community and posting bullshit, I'd take my ban like a man not throw a public twitter tantrum. But to each his own.
n/a FORKinmyDICK 2017-02-13
Does that make you feel proud?
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Yes. Thanks for asking!
n/a FORKinmyDICK 2017-02-13
How sad
n/a forgottenbutnotgone 2017-02-13
I downvoted any post with his name- including this one.
n/a mcmacsonstein 2017-02-13
He's been pretty strange lately.
n/a Demty 2017-02-13
Ban him!
n/a IanPhlegming 2017-02-13
Semen's blown it the past couple days, after being suspect for weeks, but banning is out of the question. Ignore, mock, don't share his stuff. But banning him? No.
n/a imitationpro 2017-02-13
I heard he called it but called the wrong person.

Sounds to me like someone is extremely butt hurt coz HIS narrative isn't pushed by someone else. Fuck your censorship and fuck you OP.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
You heard...
LOL fuck off. There have been arrests since before Trump took office. This isn't the high profile case. This was people reporting a pedo and him getting his comeuppance.
n/a imitationpro 2017-02-13
It is actually pretty high profile, not as big as what was suggested, I agree. But, still a step in the right direction. I won't ban a guy who may have got details wrong but the overall story is right (pedo's getting locked up)
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Whatever mental gymnastics you gotta do buddy.
n/a imitationpro 2017-02-13
Oh...so you're saying that it doesn't matter that a pedo with a position of power was caught?
Solid logic from a clearly reasonable and intelligent person. What time do they normally give you your meds? Should probably wait till after that to reply to comments.
n/a WarSanchez 2017-02-13
Position of power? His dad had position of power. This was a fucking creep getting his comeuppance. I am not defending him at all. But whatever floats your boat.
n/a ASCAdmin 2017-02-13
Well, it's your loss. His Twitter is quite entertaining.
