I strongly disagree. Yes, both sides are drowning in propaganda, and I’ve seen it on the left many times. However every single time, I’ve noticed someone speak up about it and it’s both a reminder that both sides have propaganda and also to not blindly believe everything. I do my best to verify facts for myself before believing any headline, and I’m sure at least half of other lefties do too. Compared to the right where if rarely someone speaks up about it, they are silenced.
Everyone is susceptible, yes, but the difference is having the ability to think critically about things and not take them at face value. Which is a virtue that is absent today.
I agree, although I should also bring up that your argument was about the Biden vs Trump debate, however we also later watched the Harris vs Trump debate where Harris ultimately wiped the floor with him. My point is that clearly the quality of a candidate doesn’t matter to the majority of voters, and the quality of how they can debate doesn’t matter either.
That’s not what I’m saying. I’m just pointing out the contradiction. “Our candidate must be perfect” meanwhile the other guy is fellating microphones on a stage and mocking disabled people.
I agree that democrats need to run a good candidate, but clearly that’s not the most important thing here.
We also watched as trump sucked off a microphone at one of his rallies, but that didn’t seem to affect the outcome of the election, so why does Biden being senile and having dementia even matter?
Yep, I noticed that an article “Elon Musk pushed Reddit CEO to increase moderation” on the front page, and then reddit was bugging out like mad.

IIRC if the dude online is shipping the gun (any firearm), it needs to go through an FFL, and that requires a background check. Meetups in person do not, though. That is a private sale.
Until we have ranked choice voting, just shut the fuck up.
Between now and about July 2028.
Again, I’m not saying you can’t criticize Dems. Just don’t do it right before a presidential election when votes matter the most.
I’m not saying you can’t criticize them. I’m saying timing matters. Are you dense?
YSK: Everything causes cancer. Drinking water causes cancer. Living causes cancer.
Democrats are shit. However, saying democrats are shit right before a presidential election when the only options are literally fascism, democrat, and third parties with ~zero chance of breaking even 4% of the vote, you’re an idiot and deserve to be downvoted.
My brother bot in Christ, have you listened to trump talk?
Why would they need to make her look better through editing? Have you watched any of her rallies? Oh wait you haven’t cuz you’re a bot
I saw a billboard outside of my city yesterday saying something like “did your loved ones really die of COVID-19?” and had some “covid is a hoax” website named on it. What a fucking dark timeline we’re in.
