I just cannot fathom what people are thinking these days

whether on the left or the right. Is there some other America that I just don't see or understand? In my America you work hard, you love your neighbor and you help people when you can. You respect people no matter their race or upbringing, you respect the police and you try to create a community where right and wrong matter. What am I am I missing here?

I knew it day 2 that he likely orchestrated the attack.

I don't waffle. I thought Felix couldn't understand what Smollet was thinking and then went on to say a bunch of good stuff. I misjudged his angle. Like I have stated, I thought everyone, including Felix, thinks it is all a hoax.

I thought he was bashing the guy who made up the hoax. If you look at it from that angle, what he wrote is good and deserves a TU. He said some good stuff. I just assumed he was on the same page as just about everyone knowing it was a hoax.

That is correct. I don't understand why people even conjure up the bs they do, to what end? Not the way I was raised. It happens on both the left and right. It is, however, very striking that some will fall all over themselves to pile on idiots like Smollet while giving idiots like Alex Jones a pass.

There is nothing in your OP that points to
Feb 17, 2019, 12:22 PM

bashing Smollett. Is the OP intentionally vague by stressing America and Apple Pie?
You have on many occasions supported the MSM stories about anything negative about Trump without waiting for corrobative evidence...why now bashing the media about Smollett?
Or were you doing something else?

I thought when posting the link that it would bring up the headline with the website like it normally dows on this board. It didn't so the headline "New evidence suggests Jussie Smollett orchestrated attack" didn't appear under my message. Not sure why it does some weblinks but not others. The headline was the bash on Smollet I was calling attention too.

You cannot tell from the OP what Felix is incredulous about. He can either be talking about Smollett OR the MSM. You cannot tell, neither can I.

I’m getting to be a broken record, so sorry, but

confirmation bias and cognitive dissonance have combined to create a reality where feelings trump (no pun intended) facts and evidence....actually, facts are virtually meaningless, even in the instances where they are easily discernible.
This case is another example.....it read like an issue of Trump-hater fan fiction weekly.
Ok...2am or so.....it’s freezing......and a couple hard core Trump supporters just happen to be between this guy and his Subway with a noose and some chemicals to douse him with, yelling something ridiculous like “THIS IS MAGA COUNTRY”
the only way one could believe that sounds credible is by being so incredibly biased that they virtually want it to be real.
It goes both ways, like Obama being a Kenyan, but the parties have succeeded in creating a country of mostly useful idiots. When you can show someone the light, and they choose to shut their eyes, we’ve lost the ability to reason and debate.

From the beginning of the Russia collusion stories, you’ve predicted “Trump is about to be indicted” numerous times every time some new piece of “evidence” is brought forward by liberal media
You have done exactly what the media has done with Smollett!

I think most of the media backed off believing the dude over a week ago. Pretty much everyone knows it is a hoax now.

That isn't indignation but exasperation. I'm tired of people using their platforms for things that I don't understand. Look at Alex Jones...what a nut. Now you've got this Smollet guy creating an attack out of thin air. What's the point. I don't even undestand how his lie is a swipe at Trump, I'm just not that smart.
As for the liberal media, I like you listen to media outlets for information and then come to some judgement. There have been 37 indictments and 8 convictions from the "russia collusion' investigation. Your insistence that it's all malarky just shows your extreme bias for Trump that you accuse me of having against him.
All in all I think it's fair to say that most all of us on here have our biases when it comes to politics. That is except for Profusious and Flow...they seem to be pretty well grounded.

You constantly blurted that Trump “is about to be indicted” after so many MSM reports.

to paint Trump supporters in a negative light, but of course the truth only serves to undermine his position and contributes to the “left is unhinged” narrative. He will have added to the cynicism and mistrust in our country. He will have tied up strained police resources on a wild goose chase for nothing. And why? He’s not some desperate man with a last-ditch effort. He’s on an extremely popular show making $360,000 a season. Not huge money by Hollywood standards but certainly top 2-3% territory in America.
