America....

[Lykan]

Just wanted to drop a few thoughts. Regular hard-working conservative American. Boys have a penis and girls have a vagina. No men in the women's restroom. Guns for everyone. No citizenship, no greencard, no right to American values and protections.

This made me smile even more than watching Arkaza get slapped around for 3 pages.

He's on to me. Time to tweet some distractions, tell some voters to cause a ruckus on a plane and claim innocence, and spray paint vulgarities and my name on a government building, then claim victimhood.

Made me chuckle though.

Maybe I just falsely glorify the past, but in the many political arguments I've had on wotmud forums over the years, I don't recall the level of self-indulgent, willful ignorance displayed here. I understand that it became cool in some groups to make wild claims with absolutely no basis (Trump STILL claiming he won the popular vote and had the largest electoral victory since Reagan), but it actually is just very, very sad. Try journalism from a reputable source and then go ahead and fact-check that source if anything sounds fishy.

Morons are still morons and morons who want to sound smarter than morons lean on the fallacy of gray as a crutch. Case in point right above me.

Besides that, I get the feeling sometimes that no one can differentiate between publications that have fact-checkers working in house and those that don't. There's a conflation of two ideas: 1. That media should be objective 2. That objectivity means not taking a side or a stance. Discovering that a paper has a stance then somehow means that it makes up whatever it wants and can't be trusted, or that the New York Times and Breitbart are equally reputable organizations. They're not. One works within the limits of reality and the other doesn't.

There's also no differentiation between examples that are representative of wider patterns and examples that are deviations from wide patterns. Speaking broadly, left-leaning media tend to focus on examples that can stand in for the whole, and right-leaning media tend to use examples that aren't representative of the whole, but are assumed to be by their readers.

Anyway, it's totally indefensible to say that non-Americans shouldn't have opinions on American politics, or that the relationship between America and the rest of the world is one in which America offers protection and money, and the rest of the world parasites off of us. Besides the simple fact that American policies and politics have effects felt around the world, and effects on non-citizens in the country, pointing to someone's citizenship doesn't make the content of their statements disappear.

Tell me the truth oh master unfallable faul. You are the moron.

Infallible. The word is infallible.
