Legacy media and status quo people always use that excuse.
They are the choosen people that know the real truth only, so lets censor any opposition that goes against our narrative.
This is not just used against Trump, they use it for much more.
No surprise the working class people do not trust legacy media and their ilk.
Independent media is the way to go, not saying to stop seeing legacy media, but question and be criticial of the status quo.
This person isn’t from the USA…seeing legacy media? No one talks like thos in the US.
Russian or Chinese bot I bet
Nope, it looks like a killer whale to me…
Sealioning is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity, and feigning ignorance of the subject matter.
I disagree, but feel free to continue to think in that manner.
Edit: is -> is
Oh, you have a reCAPTCHA that can check if people are ‘American’ or not?
I implore you to really take a hard look at the way you think and come up with your talking points, because I do try to make it a point to do this when people call me out.
Russian or Chinese bot I bet
Sadly, you seem to just be another person that uses this excuse so that you don’t have to question your way of view or the way the working class is sees the world.
I read and watch legacy media, and I make sure to check independent journalists as well.
I try to force myself to see what I am against and try to learn and understand why people hold that world view.
The only media you seem to consume is Fox News and whatever that fat fucks podcast is called. They think they’re smart, too, just like you.
Ok. I assume legacy media is like Fox News sort of outlets?
How do you make sure to check independent journalists? From what source(s)?
Nice!
Great come back…
You have proven my point that anyone that does not think or agree in the way you want them to, are labeled the boogeyman (Russia/China per se), so as a defense mechanism so you do not have to question your way of thinking or your view points.
At least, that is one of many guesses of why people bring that up whenever they are just smearing and trying to just ‘dirting the waters’, as peeps say.
So… media has to simultaneously report the truth AND let liars lie?
Good grief!
That was not my point or intention.
Civil discourse is good, censorship of any kind is not good.
Debates are even better, I shared one not too long ago… Here ya go if interested: https://lemmy.world/post/16132440
Oh, another iteration of “both sides are the same” idiocy.
What a shocker.
Except it was the GOP that did their rendition of the Beer Hall Putsch last time they lost…so fuck right off with that shit
Great question!
We should be critical of everything, not just legacy media.
I am more critical of politicians, gov’t, and legacy media as a principal, since they do the bidding of the owner class, but yes independent media can also be bought and those that do the bidding of the status quo, owner class.
“can also be bought”
And the writers (no way I’m calling them journalists) can also be so ridiculously bad at reporting facts that no serious media would ever hire them.
You make it sound like there is no way to verify stuff he says. Like he was just in an interview saying he never said “Lock her up!” - that other people chanted it but he never said it. There are lots of videos of him saying it, so it’s a verifiable lie. Of course the media should be able to call him on it.
Just because it doesn’t fit your narrative, doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
You are correct about the two duopoly apologetics.
I should have made it more obvious I was talking about White Knight Syndrome, where ‘I’m not going to let you continue’ is used instead of pushing back with more information.
You don’t seem to have grasped the nuance of the conversation though.
Pushing back with more information is only a viable strategy when all parties are participating in good faith.
When the guest demonstrates a clear intent to spread obvious misinformation to further their own interests, discontinuing the conversation is the only recourse.
To say the same thing another way, the host did rebut the guest, but the guest carried on without responding to the rebuttal, intent on using the show as a platform to spread misinformation.
If you are ever tempted to use the phrase “two duopoly apologetics” to make a point, you’ve already lost.
They are the choosen people
You forgot this:
((( THE JOOOOOOOZZZ!!! )))
