When Jimmy Dore and Ben Shapiro both applaud your truth-telling efforts, that's an accomplishment.
I, apparently, need a new "look', too. I am repeatedly told the one I have is not a "good" one?
Not only is the truth something they don't want to hear, but a lot of people with a LOT of power don't even want to be seen as the "Power" that needs truth spoken to it.
I mean, a party with 90+% of the press willing to straight out LIE for them (in addition to the more subtle slant, framing, selective editing, adjectival choice and coverage selection methods of propagandizing) can hardly be considered the plucky underdogs of the political world. Despite what your sister-in-laws girlfriend might say.
I hear if you grasp enough of these straws, you can build a bad person to demonize. True story!
Scrunch it up to fit into your microwave and run it on "HIGH" (or "HIGH!!!", if you have that setting).
When the pillow liquifies, the germs are all dead.
By their index, Joe?
And stop calling me mean!
"problematic" is so 2019!
Try a prim "not a good look" (the sniff is implied) It's more current, and much gayer.
Yeah, a rational look at the reality would lead one to think that. BUT...
Trump vs. Biden should not be close, but Trump vs. Biden+legacy media+tech social platforms+all of the entrenched (entroughed?) DC establishment (Dem AND Republican)...is a lot closer.
Or very, very old. A lot of oldies have the lifelong habit of not only consuming news from these once "authoritative sources", but of believing what they hear. I know some old people who, despite having lived through the development of public air travel, television, personal computers and the Internet, still find it inconceivable that the news media might have changed to become less trustworthy. smh
[Full disclosure: I am an oldie, and declining. I just started out ahead of most all of my peers and have always been an iconoclast/skeptic/contrarian. This has worked out pretty damn well, and still does.]
Waitwaitwait...civil disagreement, clarification of facts and respectful exchange of conclusions??? TF? Do you guys want to be reported to the Internet Police?
Sheesh.
Wheeler apparently thinks he can resolve the problems in his city via the invocation of magic words (imagine Wheelie in an oversized magicians robe and conical hat w/ stars and owls and aracana on it):
"systemic racism, come together, the pain they feel, safe communities, right-wing agitators, understandable anger mostly peaceful, fires of division, oooga-boooooba TRUMP!!"
Then he farts.
Wheelie's an easy target, but he's getting more pressure from the LEFT than from anyone else! Not even kidding. He's been too even-handed, they say, foolishly protecting the rights of right wing protesters who have been responsible for ALL the problems. So, they want someone more divorced from reality than he is.
Yeah. Wow.
No, man. We just need to "cower in place" another year or two! The virus will get bored and go away, problem solved!
A very good and perceptive point.
Maybe we could claw back some of the tax money given to colleges! While many of them are sitting on endowments in the billions of dollars, they have raised tuition far above the rate of inflation, increased the ratio of administrative personnel to teachers to beyond 1-to-1, and mis-educated these poor kids.
There are a lot of broken-hearted, cruelly rejected parents who really don't know what happened to their children. Maybe that's their fault, but I can't believe many parents are pleased with the mindless, hateful, violent creatures their children have become.
Look up R.D.Laing, the Scottish psychiatrist and awful father (and depressive alcoholic) who enjoyed countercultural guruhood in the 60s and 70s. I always thought it was his influence behind the calls to "de-institutionalize" the mentally ill. This did not help the mentally ill much, and has been, of course, re-characterized as "back when Reagan threw all the patients out of the institutions and onto the street". Which is just typical leftard lies.
"The party of facts and science." Amazing. Though they'd already reached "Peak Derp" with the pseudoscientific conclusion that shutdown protesters might accelerate the spread of the CV, while, magically, gatherings protesting the most irrational aspects of the shutdown INCREASED the spread.
When they did that, it was as clear to me as it is to them: They expect no critical analysis of their claims. At. All.
"nooz" if ya wanna be woke af.
I used Brave browser w/ AdBlock upgrade and I don't even know what you people are talking about.
No single one of them was quite diverse enough.
I'm not sure I'd survive the seeing long enough to get Epstein'd. Ugh.
Well dead or poorly dead?
And they still haven't answered the question "Do less blacker people survive covfefe more better?"
Though I'm sure CNN writers consider that there's "surviving" and "surviving with virtue". It's all in the signalling.
Well, actually, "it is what it is" is the tautology called The Law of Identity, except where "it" (or A) is ill-defined. You know, same as "A=A, but I'm not sure what A is."
It has been overused, and ill-used, but as a statement describing the state of one's knowledge of a thing or situation, it is sometimes accurate and useful.
/Well, Actually Guy
