      Because the vast majority of “mainstream” news outlets are pro-corporate and pro-capitalism, making them center-right at best, yet they label them as left wing. The entire idea behind the site is Republican propaganda that was created to coerce the media into repeating their lies unquestioningly, lest they be labeled as “biased”.

      MAGA uses it so suggest that every fact you throw at them is biased because an outlet may lean left, which the majority of the noteworthy ones do. My buddy is a maga guy and he even declares AP news and Reuters as liberal mainstream media.

      Another popular tactic is to see who owns the company where the news is coming from. If there’s a single Democrat on the board of directors or anything like that, then the news is “tainted”

      Can’t win. It’s also pointless giving them facts I’ve learned over the past 8 years.

      Because they are losing the factual discussion with me here.

      Polls from CBS and CNN confirm that JD Vance won the debate last night and that JD Vance is up huge in favorability.

      They don’t like to see how unpopular liberal viewpoints really are. Or the reality of the American political system. But we need to push reality above all, we cannot afford to be complacent moving into this election.

        You’re focused on polling. If you think polling is “factual”, you don’t understand how polling works.
