politics

Too often they treat what these people say as if it the news itself. Unbiased, and a source of truth. Reporting has just become gossip repeating the worse people say.

if only....

i don't really ever watch news anymore, but when I did I would scream at the television, "ASK A FUCKING FOLLOW-UP QUESTION"

I don't know what is being taught as journalism anymore but it seems to be just take the statement, get the sound bite, and think up a clickbaitable title.

It's telling enough when you see fox segments that were supposedly made to demonize him and it's things like "free child care for all, fare taxes for all, fare wages based on labor".

I think they're so up their asses that they completely forgot how regular people even think. Many of their attacks were basically advertising for his campaign lol.

US "journalists" are almost universally paid shills from one of 3 companies, who are directed to never challenge their interviewee.

The reason is because they're threatened with never getting the earliest scoop, and thus the most clicks, if their interviewee feels challenged.

The White House & Pentagon set this standard perhaps most sternly after 9/11, and its only ever gotten worse.

And then give the facts.

The problem is that even facts are even subjective for these people. It's always been that way.

I remember that after 9/11 I had a coworker who was convinced the problem was with Islam itself. "I've read their book", he would explain to everyone who was within earshot, "They want to kill all the infidels. Their religion is incompatible with our country". He held that as a fact, just as sure as the fact that the sun sets in the west, and that God gave him the right to bear arms.

To many people in this country, Muslim = Terrorist, no further questions asked. You can't argue with that. Not because they are right, but you literally can't argue with someone who thinks God gave them those incorrect facts.

idk....all those questions give them too much information about the potential disanswer. I think they should just say, "do you have any evidence to support the claim you just made?"

Can you share some source for this aipac claim? I mean, fuck aipac, but I just want to make sure we don’t go down the shouting about the evil Jewish billionaires controlling everything route.

Dude literally said they spent more trying to fight him than they would be taxed. It really is just a dick measuring contest with rich people. They do not take risk assessment seriously.

They are the same group of billionaires. Just with different T-shirts to perform for the poor

The establishment Democrats might have signed their own death sentence by attacking Zohran Mamdani

Will they apply this same standard to the first lady and her anchor child?

then they’d exterminate them with Zyklon B (we’re not there yet, but soon).

How are we going to find out?

A lot of kentuckians thought they had a right to vote for mayor of New York and governor of Virginia

Trump lost NYC 1:5 in 2024

So

Are the fascists implying that most New Yorkers are fucking morons who can't see a dangerous individual when they see one, or that a majority of New Yorkers should be either deported or thrown in the slammer for communist tendencies and terrorism?

Por que no los dos?

I mean, four out of five NYC voters could clearly recognize a dangerous individual when they see one, as evidenced by the results. But Trump et al live in bizarroland where they are innocent.

They were still campaigning against Biden. No doubt that would have come up if we had a 2 year campaign for her

There's a hidden division in your question, whether intentional or not. "Can" they do that. Do you mean "are they legally allowed to do that", or "do they have the power to do that"?
In the former, no. In the later, possibly, yes.

It really doesn't matter with this administration. They have shown time and time again that the old adage of "better to ask for forgiveness than permission" unfortunately works pretty effectively. Ffs the turd is adjudicated guilty of fucking rape... FUCKING RAPE and is very likely a pedo to boot, and a third of the country voted for him!

If you're born lucky, you live your life without consequences. There is no just god, smoke crack and worship no one.
