Maybe I’m naive but I genuinely think our political landscape would be better if people were equipped with critical thinking skills and the bravery and willingness necessary to confront their biases.
The worst part about the liberal invocation of the notion of a “post-fact” society is the implication that “facts” were ever so simple to begin with or that the American media pre-Trump was not a propaganda vehicle for the US government.
“yikes” is how politically correct people say “cringe”
American media people really are just like “oh, you’re from the Fraternal Order of the Police? You’re from the Pentagon? Hell yeah I’ll print your press release verbatim and present it as fact!”
Conservatives act like the problem with Cuban socialism is the lack of variety of brands to choose between and not the systematic repression of cannabis and psychedelic drugs.
Sometimes I wonder why American foreign policy strayed so far from what Trump campaigned on (“America shouldn’t be the policeman of the world” is a damn near direct quote from the 2016 debates) but then I remember it’s decided by Bush admin rejects and a guy who believes the rapture is imminent.
we could be living in the golden age of IP piracy right now but yall forgot how computers worked when the concept of “apps” was introduced
it’s honestly shocking how right-wing churches get away with busing people to a pro-life rally (a clearly political event) when their tax exempt status depends on them not playing a role in politics.
