Yes let’s stop believing all the countless press institutions that have stood for generations on the principle of objective reporting and start listening to random YouTube guys instead! They’re the ones who really know what’s up.

The person whose video it was was not the point of the post. But of course, deflect if you must, the fact is these press institutions you revere bow to dollar bills. You and I do not factor in to that unless we’re watching and believing.

Why is it so difficult for some of you to use your own brains instead of letting all these news outlets feed you what you believe to be the god’s honest truth just because it caters to your emotional opinion?

Maybe frievous is right, maybe this country is going to hell in a handbasket, I’m glad I don’t count on that ride to be happy.

I’m only going to say this once. Please follow the rules laid out for this thread. Knock off the shitty personal attacks with name calling.

Thank you.

And just in case you forgot …

According to this post, the old politics thread is now permanently dead, thus I created this thread for y’all.

THREAD RULES:

  • Obviously, all the rules here must be obeyed
  • No crazy conspiracy theories (aliens killed JFK, Elvis did 911, Moon Landing was faked, 911 was an inside job)
  • No ridiculous doom saying (like all non-Trump supporters will be rounded up and executed)
  • No Frink vs Jetrell
  • Debate and not Flame

Admin note:

For some history on the matter, feel free to peruse the original, long-running Politics thread:

http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Politics/id/2888/page/1

Grab some popcorn and read the last ~100 pages for some great examples on how not to debate politics. The mods felt it was best to start fresh after all the vitriol and personal attacks that occurred there. New year, new rules, new thread. Keep it civil, please.

It is only your opinion that it was name calling. You do not speak for everyone else.
