The American Media Should Not Be Trusted

You must feel Greenwald has it all wrong. It would be nice to hear your reasoning

 

 

:lol:

 

 

Surely you don't expect this moron to take the content of Greenwald's thread and respond to any of the points he makes specifically? I'll save you the time.  Here's the "reasoning" that you'll get:

 

TRUMP!

 

CULT!

 

COUP! 

 

INSURRECTION!

 

RACIST!

I can give two 💩’s about Glen - his schtick is anti establishment, anti America, pro death to innocent Ukrainians (aka pro Putin) just like you, DR and the rest of the deplorable cult.

Gosh. You usually have such well-reasoned thoughts. I’m disappointed with this response. I guess you support censorship like, you know, PUTIN.

What I would like to see is the Dem and Republican candidate agree to meet, along with a libertarian candidate, and each party chooses a moderator. 3 debates each with one moderator and let them be partisan. The third one should always be the Libertarian moderator whose most common response would be " why are better equiped to handle this than the people in their own lives?"

Don’t need them anymore.  
 

With a 24 hour a day news cycle, every move or word scrutinized, and the reality that the candidate(s) spend 90 minutes trying to say nothing about a subject and avoid quotable quotes and/or offer quotable quotes written by speechwriters, we simply don’t need em anymore.   It’s a relic of a bygone era. 
 

So, you learn nothing, they say nothing, and the talking heads offer really nothing.  Andrea Mitchell is the perfect example.  She’s 100 years old, has proven to be an untrustworthy source of information and thus offers nothing of value to many.  If your chose a right-leaning moderator, same situation applies.

I would add that these "debates" would be helpful ,

 

IF

 

the candidates were able to directly speak to each other,

 

the "moderator" is not necessary.

 

If one candidate dominated the time, so what ?  the American people would judge wether it was good or bad.

You didn’t have any issues w a baker denying gays a cake - no reason  a private company can’t ban people who break their rules.

 

Keep trying gf

If gf is supposed to mean girlfriend, please don’t misgender me. You have no idea what my pronouns are. If gf is get ******, well……

 

If you, like Putin, support the suppression of speech, just say so. Nobody here is going to dislike you more than they already do.

No, no little boy.

 

You don't get to change the facts.

 

Gays were welcome at that bakers store and could buy anything.

 

When two activists specifically asked him to bake a wedding cake for their lesbian wedding, he said that he could not due to his religious beliefs.

 

Gays were NOT denied service at his shop.

 

 

AND that was upheld in court.

 

But No ONE here expects you to be honest,  so carry on.

Wait…what? Twitter is claiming a constitutionally protected religious exemption? Really? What religion is it?

It is interesting, of course, that the bakers who did not provide the cake for the gay couple were targets of government intervention, yet the Twitter is viewed as a private company doing private company things.  

 

Actually, really what’s interesting is how people defend one and not the other based on their own particular predilections.

When engaging in these types of disagreements it's always nice when you have the power of The State in your corner.  And we all know that Twitter is an outsourcing partner of the government and based on the arrangement carries out government censorship policy.  Protecting all kinds of sacred narratives from scrutiny and questioning.  And protecting the government from public supervision, Constitutional violations, and oversight like freedom of information requests along with providing Twitter (and Google, and Facebook for that matter) with lots of taxpayer money channeled through opaque intelligence agency budgets they book on the ledger as "advertising" revenue.
