Breitbart's deception

I think it's the NY Post but cons will link to it and the entire right side is just images with teaser clickbait headlines and the pics are almost always mostly women with their breasts falling out of whatever they are wearing. Can't help but think cons just sit there on that site instead of going to pornhub so when their wife walks in they can say they are just reading the "news". Kind of like yesteryears, "I just get playboy for the articles."

I share news sites with my students and finding one with a conservative bias that isn't utter bullshit is hard to find. I tend to use the Examiner.
 
The left creates a total fabricated narrative of white supremacy in America so I think it’s good that right outlets are learning to better use propaganda.

Just keep reasserting Biden is killing border agents and when the left tries to pull this card reassert it louder and accuse him of justifying the deaths of border agents.

Let's translate this into plain English:

EMNofSeattle thinks it's okay to lie to get what you want.

None of this is true, but posts like this are what we've come to expect from this individual.
 
This is a pretty shitty deception.


And the right wing nutters have the nerve to always cry fake news when it comes to media sources who report the truth , these extreme right wingnut sites really spread lies and disinformation. Only idiots blindly believe the crap they put out. Mostly racists who are afraid of America becoming brown and have an Hispanic boogeyman under their beds keeping them up at night.

They could have gotten vaccinated.

So it is 100% on them that they died.

Or, if they didn't like their jobs they could.go get a better one. Isn't that yall's standard response to work related complaints?

I'm not really bothered by its existence but I am very bothered that, like you said, right wingers cite them and follow them and believe their bullshit all while whining about actual news.
 
The argument is that migrants in overcrowded detention centers were not tested by the US govt, causing infection and disease of the BP agents. The fact is the BP has the authority to test all migrants using NGO and does just that.

The graduation to RW authoritarian control of American democracy has been the osmosis of the Rep/con/anarchy for yrs. Things will only get worse. What Breitbart did was just a tiny piece in one way of that graduation. It's happening everywhere, right now, just like global warming, in many small and big ways. That 34% of Americans think violence is an appropriate way of disagreement with govt is only more than it was before, which before was a bit more than before that when it was a bit more than before then. It's been happening for yrs. But don't worry, folks. The inaptly named Democrats have the many strong and far-reaching hands of their party firmly planted beneath their ass and covering their eyes, ears and mouth. This is no joke.
Of that 34%, how many are liberals?

There are maybe twenty white supremacists in the US living in the hills of West Virginia, but this crowd wants everyone to think that conservatives love them and agree with them. It's the way they are taught.

Well, I think most left-wingers have sticky Playboy mags under their mattress too. So there!
 
So, border agents die of COVID because ALL of the illegals are unvaccinated and this crowd says "Nothing to see here folks"?
 
This is a pretty shitty deception.



I'm no fan of Breitbart, but the fact that 13 of them were caused by Covid is literally stated in the second sentence in the article.

I guess this is a real story for people who get all their news from headlines.

Do you think that they were all dumb white supremacists who refused the vaccine because Trump said so.
 
I'll let you carry on the argument about Breitbart's deception in their article but what I wish to know is just how their "reporter" Randy Clark could get so much information so WRONG in regards CBP Line of Duty Deaths?

The Line of Duty deaths in the CBP for the year of 2020 was 21 and for the year 2021 it was 32.

How could their "reporter" get it so wrong?

In 2019 there were 4 CBP line of duty deaths and just 1 in 2018.

No doubt, looking at those numbers, COVID-19 has greatly increased the LOD's in the CBP as well as across all Police forces in our Nation from local Sheriffs to FBI officers and even Secret Service members.

From the most reliable source I know of there were 484 LOD's recorded by them in 2021 with 325 of those deaths attributed to COVID-19.
I'm not even clear how dying from Covid counts as in the line of duty.

Ah yes, the epitome of reasoned discourse: misinform more loudly and energetically than your opponent. We'll definitely come to an understanding in that manner.

This is exactly what I would expect from EMN.
 
Ever since the Birther BS the con media and the Republican brass have known they say anything, push any conspiracy and lie and their ignorant, poorly educated base will believe them...

From Pizzagate, to Jewish Space Lasers to the big election lie...

The is no lie or conspiracy the Republican base won't believe... There is no bottom..

Well the left can always stop misinforming.

I think both sides need to come together, exhibit honesty and empathy, so that as individuals and as a nation we can discuss our issues in way that finds common ground and solutions. Bickering, misinformation, name calling, partisan accusation - all that shit is emotional baggage that we need to divest ourselves of. Otherwise, we're ****ed.

Lol you think leftists are going to come together with who they denounce as evil racist sexist homophobe deplorable fascist Nazis?

Lol they can’t even let a bakery stay open if the owner wont personally serve homosexuals.

They’re convinced they’re on the right side of history, if they can’t make everyone think like them they will be willing to do some pretty horrific stuff.

Leftists are like that radio announcer in Hotel Rwanda, he ain’t coming to break bread with the Tutsis

Thank you for demonstrating the unproductive mindset I was referring to. There's the dangerous, undefined "they". Lumping everyone on the "left" together is as silly as it would be to describe everyone on the right as being the same. It's why I hate to use these terms - liberal, conservative, progressive, left/right - because they mean different things to different people, and any given individual can be "liberal" on one issue and "conservative" on another. Broad generalizations and pigeonholing is what people do when they just want to bash and complain, not discuss and understand. I have a mix of what I consider to be conservative and progressive viewpoints on a variety of topics. I try hard to stay factual and keep an open mind to combat confirmation bias, so that new information that contradicts my world view is not automatically discarded.

If we can't reach across the aisle, so to speak, as citizens, how can we expect our politicians to do so?

I didn’t see a single person of any stripe on the left condemn the state persecution of the baker in Oregon for not personally delivering a “wedding cake” to homosexuals. We’re at the stage where if you don’t openly affirm leftist dogma you can lose your livliehood and the left will say you deserve it.

So you can complain about how “unhelpful” this is, well there has been years of abuses perpetrated near entirely by people on the left side of the aisle, from driving practicing Christians out of business, to claiming an elected president was a Putin intelligence plant, to (yes) denying the legitimacy of the 2016 election.

What’s the compromise position? If your side won’t even agree to not persecute Christian businesses and tell gays to get their cakes somewhere else what exactly is the compromise?

Post an example of a Democrat calling a Republican an "evil racist sexist homophobe deplorable fascist Nazis"
Lol they can’t even let a bakery stay open if the owner wont personally serve homosexuals.
Is there some good reason why LGBT people should be banned from buying products offered to the general public?
They’re convinced they’re on the right side of history,
Making sure everyone has equal opportunity and equal rights is on the right side of history.
if they can’t make everyone think like them they will be willing to do some pretty horrific stuff.
Horrific stuff? Is that why Republicans restrict mail in ballots, gerrymander districts, demand complex IDs, cut back voting places, hours, booths and machines in the "wrong" areas ............ to prevent horrific stuff like electing representatives that are against discrimination?
