So, you're not going to let being wrong --again-- slow you down even a little eh?

Why should your need to hear both sides equally criticized strike you as more important than working out why you're always wrong?

What am I wrong about exactly?

I reposted memes, and think Joe speaks imprecisely, and clumsily. He has said plenty of stupid shit, and gets very different treatment from the media.

It's almost like they work for him, when they seemed to work against other, similar politicians.

Dem's called for riots, media celebrated riots as 'mostly peaceful protests'. Heck, I think you could find stories celebrating looting, if you wanted to.

But such nonsense is called out, if someone Republican does it.

The 'Walsh Question' 'What Is A Woman?' I'll put an answer here when someone posts one that is clear and comprehensible, by apostates to the Faith.

Update: I've been offered one!

If I share a statement that turns out to be false I consider that my mistake, this is especially true when I could have checked the statement beforehand.

What you're doing is worse. You're sharing falsehoods to support a narrative, and then not allowing any corrections to make you skeptical of your position.

If you can't be trusted with the little things...

He's not being silly. He heard it from one of his biased right wing sources that he trusts (because they are openly biased).
I just wish our member from Yellowknife did not trust the lies spread by sources, whose bias harmonise with his own, so readily. He uncritically reported three of them just in the past few hours.

They are the only ones willing to criticize Biden the way Trump has been criticized.

But now that 'the Establishment' is undeniable, maybe some of you will start feeling 'anti-establishment' and start in on him.

I don't even remember what this place was like before Trump became everyone's focus...except birds.
You think that disagreeing with Trump automatically makes you pro-Biden? You really haven't been paying attention have you?

We will have to ramp up our disdain of Biden, it seems. Let's see:

"Biden's mother smells of elderberries, and his father was a hamster. And I fart in his general direction!"

See, nothing to it... :tea:

Lots of talk about media censorship, and the antifa storming of Congress, on Hive. The fruitcakes are really coming out of the woodwork. Lots of discussion about the censorship resistance of the Hive blockchain and how the front ends could adapt so that they aren't subject to ISP/AWS/Cloudflare/etc takedowns. Apparently there are ways.

Apple and Amazon will suspended a social media platform described as a "free speech" Twitter clone from their App Store and web hosting service respectively, saying it has not taken adequate measures to prevent the spread of posts inciting violence.

The action against the social networking service, Parler, follows a similar move by Alphabet Inc's Google.
I'm sure that the pimply youths and brave Canadian conspiracy theorists will make Parler rise again!

Not at all. I think the media has a problem like that (being as there are only two candidates)

I do think there is a lot posted here about Trump, and little else.

I wonder what commentators like Tim Pool will do once Trump is out, and boring old Biden is running things. No-one tunes into him, no matter how excited they are about his presidency.
