Deranged Rhino Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Just now, Crap Throwing Clavin said: I haven't read Axios in years, until now... And holy shit, what kind of writing is that? It's not a story, it's an outline of a story as outlined by a sixth grader. It's gotten bad. The level of basic writing and journalism is off the rails these days. And not just because of bias or point of view - people don't know how to write prose anymore after years of IMs, texts, emails, and short hand. (God, I sound older than dirt now) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the agenda to try and push this incorrect information? While I know everyone here knows the difference I find it disturbing that people when asked what Republic is had no answer but I also wouldn't be a bit surprised of CNN editing to make it appear that way too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the agenda to try and push this incorrect information? Soft revolution - if they can convince enough people that we're a democracy then it makes it easier to push the idea that things like the Electoral College and Supreme Court are anti-democratic and thus bad. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the ultimate descent into an Authoritarian single party system since of course any mere thought against their form of "democracy" will have to be banned in order to save our democracy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turn on any political discussion on television and the panel, er liberal college professors, will be constantly beating a drum against the EC and SC. Further, they push the notion of vote pooling meaning taking "surplus" votes from blue states and giving them to their brethren in red states. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of that requires 2/3rd of states to vote for an amendment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ann Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Why don't people watch/read the "news" anymore? 🤔 I like the comment that pointed out CBS News is campaigning for Joe Biden with these lies. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not meant as a defense of Owens, I haven't watched the clip or anything of hers in the past year but know she's getting a lot of grief, seemingly deservedly so. But I don't think the establishment/mainstream media are dumb or uniformed (okay, some are) as much as they are bought and paid for assets. Same thing happens in the alt media, both right, left, and center. Edited June 21 by Deranged Rhino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
