The point being, that wasn't what the Mueller report said. So Berliner gets it wrong, repeats the falsehood and the right wing echo chamber rolls with it. |
Instead of rushing to “deprogram” take a minute to listen to other points of view. Maybe then you will come to understand right from wrong. |
Maybe tweet it at Hilary Clinton so she can broaden her new sources. |
That's the problem. We do listen to MAGA points of view. Then we look up the facts and find that they are wrong. |
When other points of view are factually wrong, or based on disinformation from our enemies, there is really no reason to listen to them. |
This. I tend to fact check and make sure anything I share is accurate to the best of my ability. And my MAGA relatives refuse to do any fact checking at all, including the spelling of names of politicians and the like. It's one thing to have different point of view, it's another to parrot disinformation and Russian propaganda to others. |
You can look at other threads in this forum to see exactly the kind of disinformation that propagates through the MAGA set. For example, in the Biden Economy thread, someone posited that inflation happened under Biden as a result of his spending bills. Global inflation is at 6.9%. In the US, it is at 3.4%. If the Biden spending was the cause, then the US inflation would be on par or worse than global inflation. Just one example, and literally every argument on every thread is like this. |
A favorite quote of mine about this goes something like this: she thinks water is made of hydrogen and oxygen, he thinks it’s unicorn urine filtered through rainbows - how can we help them see each other’s side? It was a conservative who said that regarding the ludicrous idea that MAGA fairytales should be given serious consideration. |
I can only imagine, what a horror. |
Good God. I have just read several posts on here about "misinformation" and people being uninformed. And, then we have two people - one who posted the X posting and another who asked the stupid question. Neither of you seem to recognize that the guy who lit himself of fire was not a fan of Trump. At all. Let's talk about misinformation and being uninformed. Because you two are. |
