    Ya see this is what I repeatedly keep saying. Wrong is wrong and good is good but things are far to partisan these days.

     

    Admittedly I didn't follow the Kavanagh stuff as close as some but imo I don't know if he is guilty but he did give the impression he seems like a pompous jerk who thinks he is better than others.

    The climate change community are very cult like. Like a religion. Agree with us or else. Not all of them. But many are. Too many. This helps to establish that notion. 

     

    this is exactly why modern social media is designed the way it is.  Every echo chamber is kept separated and this is the best description of what the current social media buzzword social tracing is all about.  They are not interested in stopping the spread of virus so much as they are more concerned with ideas/wrong-think spreading.  Maximize the idea of "other" is dehumanization propaganda 101.  Something has the elites some spooked right now?

    Hmmmm.....and do you also wonder why Justin Trudeau went into self isolation when his wife contracted the virus and encouraged all Canadians to social distance, while Trump was telling his citizens that he had it "under control", that it was only a few people, (and it was "not our fault") and that it would "probably be down to nothing" in a short time?

     

    Do you wonder why Trump is the only world leader bragging about what a "great job" he's done, even while his country is the world leader in Covid-19 cases?

    so your'e saying it took 6 weeks for Trump to read a tweet?

     

    how about the mismanagement occurring today, right now, in the US? is that WHO's fault too? 

    according to the "experts"  there was no risk

    So if media gets things wrong, and Brietbart is media, then Brietbart gets things wrong? Am I doing this right?

     

     the problem comes when you start picking and choosing what you want to believe.  There will be click bait on the internet to tell you anything you want to hear.  The digital media industry is dieing and they are desperate to get get clicks and nothing sells like over the top controversial option pieces carefully disguised as info tainment.

     

    nothing generates clicks faster right now then negative stories about trump, stories pushing fear and division.  Fear and hysteria can be very beneficial if your goal is to remove rights and freedoms

    Jesus Holy Christ, you're using Breitbart as a source?

     yes , best to ignore all info inside because it comes from the other side of the fence.  That's how you have an informed position, always only look at one side of the coin, that way you can't get fooled by propaganda

     

    don't even read it, just start dismissing anything from sources "not approved" to the borg collective

    They were exposed for it.

    That's how I'm reading about it here on CDC. I heard about the Italian hospital too..

    It has also been pointed out that stock footage gets mixed up all the time. I see it plenty on local news.

    Are you under the impression that all MSM are just lousy at their jobs? or that they have an agenda?...or do you?

     

    IMO most thinking people get their info from multiple sources.

     

    Edit:  I didn't read your other post until I responded to this one. You do think MSM has an agenda(s)...

    that's one hell of an uncorroborated outlier that may or may not be related to throw out all the actual research that has already been done world wide.  Showing tangible results without side effects of insanity are whats going on in the current testing in Korea and Italy for example

    Both Fox and CNN have their own right wing, left wing agenda. I do frequent CNN because I hate Trump, but take their anti-Trump narratives with a grain of salt.

     

    It is surprising (or perhaps jist sad) how challenging it is to find solid, yet unbiased reporting.

     

    depending on where you source your news you might as well be on another planet from most people.  Takes a rare few to see the big picture

     

    conformation bias echo chambers make things worse
