Yeah, things are not looking good for the Completionist.
I watched the whole video, and while yes Karl does conclude with that, many of the statements of fact he makes aren’t actually fact but speculation. This is super biased reporting. Doesn’t mean he’s wrong, just that he’s biased.
many of the statements of fact he makes aren’t actually fact but speculation.
Given his ongoing history with Billy Mitchel, I’m pretty confident he had his lawyer(s) check whether he can make such a video without being libelous. He’s not a journalist, so I don’t see why he cannot release an opinion piece that then asks US citizens to have the IRS look into it.
I’m hardly suggesting he can’t. I’ve imposed no moral assertion here, but you have by suggesting that the OP didn’t watch the video and is commenting on it none the less.
Karl, being in Australia is not realistically bound by US libel laws. Sure Billy is using, but that’s gone nowhere, and it’s a motherfucker to sue someone in a foreign country, so realistically he doesn’t need lawyers for this. Regardless, in the US a discrepancy or even a series of discrepancies on a tax return is not proof that a charity isn’t doing charitable things. Innocent until proven guilty; ergo Karl is speculating.
All that is actually being said is that op can have watched the video, sawn that Karl was in fact being biased, stated as much at which point you came in and said “yOu ShouLda wAtCheD THe viDeo. 🤪”
I’ve replied to the statement that Karl should let the authorities investigate instead of releasing opinions/speculation.
The authorities didn’t investigate for 10 years, so he’s using his platform to make the authorities investigate the donations. Everyone who watched the video until the end saw that and I’m pretty certain you now use that SpongeBob meme style of quoting to deflect from you initially not watching the video until the end. Were you interested in actual conversation, you wouldn’t use such childish methods.
There’s no conversation here. You accused someone of something that is entirely irrelevant to the original post. OP didnt say that Karl was wrong, or that he didn’t say “go to the authorities.” They said that Karl is reporting on something in a biased way that likely is inaccurate in some of its details which is irresponsible. Your reading comprehension failure is why I’m mocking you with the quote method. Figured the changing capitalization might gather your attention long enough to get you caught up, but I guess not.
At no point does OP ndicate that isn’t what Karl said in the video. They state that the video is unnecessarily inflammatory when “yo, the tax returns for this charity golf tournament don’t look right either. I’m not saying people are pocketing the cash, but it doesn’t look like donations are being accurately reported. Since I’m not a citizen, you should report these guys here.”
Had you watched the video, you’d knew that that’s the point it’s actually making.
