Today you want to kill them? I think your bot algorithm needs some work on its consistency module


Oh wait, when it happened due to market forces under the black guy’s watch it was bad. Now that it’s being aggressively pursued under the orange guy’s watch it’s ok.

Got it.

Well, since it's "hidden" and "redacted" not sure we could guess what in it.

But something tells me that you think you know what's in it, am I right?

Surprising and sad for a nationwide poll. I wonder what the

difference would be if respondents were asked the same questions in person. Regardless, the willingness of people to believe in such an unrepentant, habitual liar is astounding.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Why not? It is perfectly acceptable to purge the media.


Aug 8, 2018, 10:39 PM

Just as it's perfectly acceptable for the people to replace their government by force. Is everyone so comfy with their TV news personalities that they just blindly trust them? See, that's the problem right there, trust. Once trust is gained, information is blindly accepted as truth and no one questions anything anymore.

If CNN gets the axe who will make me feel superior. Who would Trump rallies torture? Who would Trump call fake news? Who would start the next uprising of a tea party-like movement with swept across the midlands and took control of the government.

The MSM's daily reminders of what's wrong with America satisfies a conservative soul. That's our measure of success, our crown of victory and our sceptre of power.

I say they are at least shortsighted and borderline morons. Who knows the depth of this rabbit hole.

BTW, was there a survey on how libs feel about Fox? Without that we have no idea if the crazy on one side is worse than the other. Imo, the left has at least as many if not more. Of one thing I am certain. I'm fed up with one side's hyperbole and the other side spending half their air time pointing that out.

Aug 9, 2018, 11:07 AM

as a society.

Our media is increasingly corrupt. Our government is corrupt. Our voters are increasingly uncivilized.

The Constitution is a distant memory.

In my lifetime it was a total fantasy to think that our democracy could be seized by oligarchic forces. Not any more.

People are so polarized that they justify ending free speech on a wide scale. 1st Amendment is inconvenient for tribalism. 2nd Amendment is inconvenient for the left's aims. And the rest of the bill of rights depends on the first 2. Oh well.
