I don't watch TV, except for a few late night clips I watch online, like Colbert. I read and follow a few podcasts. You can't claim that my point of view is because of CNN or MSNBC.
 
Apparently, el presidente is here in Phoenix tonight. That, plus a couple pro sports events, has turned downtown into a living traffic hell. Fortunately, my hotel is further out near the Skyharbour (best name for an airport ever).

A year ago I watched some hurricane coverage for about an hour when I wasn't at home. That was it.

Well you sure have huge opinions based on no evidence then.
 
If PF13 saw it you must have too ... and he believed as he chose to and you should too ... according to hi belief that all people should experience the same ... even though some mysterious creator declared not ... and thus it wasn't ... causing a flaw in the creation story due to a gap heh?

In Gnostic belief this was a flawed creation ... something to get over when some believe one should get over thinking and cognizance as that is only false journaling ... and turning out of wheels ... they keep on turning out thoughts ... why they are ultimate (at distance)!
 
I don’t get what you mean. It’s just a pretty clever joke. Because when the accounts are banned, it proves the premise of the joke.

The joke Republicans vote on the sixth, Democrats on the seventh is just a joke haha not expecting that anyone would fall for, who is old enough to vote. But when you ban the accounts - you reveal what you think of the brains of Democrats.

If a Democrat, posted the same joke reversed, there would be no ban there.

The media count on you to be unthinking drones.


Quite different than the Project Veritas videos where they pose as Democrats and go into polling stations and record actual criminal election tampering.

This guy also just does bogus stuff.
 
@PG-13, I'd be delighted to hear about your political opinions after a diet of "no cable news". It's an interesting experience.
 
He’d probably just get caught up in the right wing internet algorithms. It’s an easy trap to fall into since Steve Bannon of Breitbart and Cambridge Analytica “flooded the zone with s**t” (Bannon’s own words). So, internet readers beware. There’s decent media out there, but a whole lot isn’t. A good metaphor would be like combing through Value Village. You have to sift through a lot of junk, and be able to recognize what’s worthwhile. I read a combination of msm like WaPo and NYT (with a critical mind, some of the editorial is good some isn’t), and smaller more progressive sites like rabble and the tyee (in Canada), the Guardian, the Independent in the UK, Vox...sometimes Huffington Post (but not as much anymore). My local paper is decent. A few others. Never Fox, never Sun News media. Never Dave Rubin or Ben Shapiro or anyone in the IDW echo chamber (I read JPs twitter sometimes to get a sense of what’s going on, and if people are changing their minds about him). I watch/ listen to the Majority Report with Sam Seder and recently, a show by his protege and colleague Michael Brooks (two progressive youtubers bucking the Alt right trend except Sam has been doing the majority report longer than this bad trend has been around)... Michael Brooks I am finding a bit immature at times - maybe because I’m just older, and I forget that - he’s just being young. But when he presents serious issues and has guests, it’s high quality, thorough discussion. He frequently has the editor of the Intercept on, who happens to be a millennial (which is great) and friend of Michael’s, herself.
