Many of the sites you all mention are not reliable in my humble opinion. I often wonder if some are part of RT?

RT isn't what you think it is. I actually had the majority of my posts scrubbed from their site for being pro Putin.

See, ad hominems are all you have as a means to deflect. Apparently you think any facts going against your narrative are too out there to respond too    

I reviewed the pieces, many are simply opinion pieces, you know what the Sergeant said about opinions.

Check piece below on misinformation from your source as a counter argument.

So Soros tells you and you believe it? Why in the fuck would you take the word of a Communist Hell bent on our destruction, over that of an American who runs the risk of losing everything??

We need to start removing his links. If he won't discuss, his links don't get posted.

Agree! I'm serious about this being part bot. He posts link to books no one gives a shit about, as if he's really read them all because no one has that much free time in their lives to read all those he posted links to.
The other is his bland responses, the very thing I'd expect from a computer reply, and merge that with some troll sitting at a pooter collecting a check for posts it makes, and you have the perfect marriage.

But so far everything you have posted we have counter posted proof of their left wing bias. Everything youve posted so far has been opinions, just like below. This is why the left cant convince people to vote for them.

Most Americans consider the news to be unreliable and mostly propaganda, yet you keep using it....

Its almost like he just wants to push his ideas without having to back them up with facts or evidence.

Exactly the same M.O. as every other liberal/democrat/socalist/"self claimed independent" I know.

In other words, a liberal.      

Shooting the messenger is as old as history. Sorry that my links and books challenge you, actually I'm not sorry as truth can be tough and either you face it or you deny it, that does not change it. I need examples to challenge, the links etc are points in my argument.

Yes, some news is unreliable, Fox OAN and Newsmax are opinion rather than news. Watch them and critique them and what you find is they are anti-Biden and anti-lots more but not fair or balanced. Much of MSNBC and CNN is opinion too but more balanced and fair in my opinion.

Challenge me where I am wrong. I'm waiting.

OP I wrote last year.

If you hadn't noticed, most here don't quote FUX or Snoozemax, people here actually know what is going on in the world, andf OANN blows the shit out of the LSM and their lies!
OANN isn't afraid to tell the truth, you could learn a lot if you ignored the hyperbole and paid attention to just the facts they tout.

As to your claim about books? Not a one is topical as the lefts assault on our system of govt.
Try reading Orwell, he literally posted a map for our future, a future we're living in currently.
And no, you're nowhere near a messenger, you're even a lousy propagandist ay best!

You challenge no one. Maybe some straw men in your mind. You are nothing more than the liberal talking points. Cnn and msnbc are balanced? To suggest that is to show you are delusional. You accuse fox is anti-Biden, so tell us, where are Biden's actions we should all be proud of??

Now his, "go to" AI, just got stumped. Don't expect an answer, but I think we need to press this question, indefinitely.
