POLITICAL HUMOR & SATIRE

[Duchess]

rothschild, I agree with that depiction because I watch/read the news.

You seem to think that just because I disagree with so much on the right that I'm all for other things on the left. I'm actually pretty conservative, but I am socially liberal.

I know that, Duchess, and that is precisely what confirmation bias is. "News" does *not* equal reality. Making conclusions on the basis of "news" empowers the people who make the news and relegates those who follow along to the role of sheep, and that's what has killed our democracy -- which was dead long before Trump showed up. We're supposed to be holding these people accountable, not allowing them to use us as pawns on a 3-D chessboard. No one should be allowed to frame and distort how we see the world, because that's far too much power for any group to safely have, left or right. It's extremely dangerous, and it's why the world is going to hell in a handbasket.

I'm genuinely interested in knowing where you get your current events from so I too can be self righteous and denigrate all opinions that don't line up with my own world view. 

I look forward to seeing your posted links. Thanks!
