How is blaming everything on the MSM strawman neutral? All media are businesses. They are creating a product that generates income based on the number of eyeballs/ears it attracts. That is true on the right and the left. Media companies who produce content that a segment of the population wants to hear in order to get them to watch/listen will attract more $$. It's capitalism. If Fox News dares to report something that the right doesn't want to hear, the right immediately tries to cancel them. I am not a fan of Tucker Carlson, but when he called out Sidney Powell for not delivering on the Kraken promise, the right went ballistic.

@Benny2Toes Both sides have this "by any means necessary" mentality. Look at what our president is doing right now. There is no moral high ground here.

2020-11-22 16:34:20 UTC  

Not blaming everything on MSM.

2020-11-22 16:34:32 UTC  

What is our President doing right now?

2020-11-22 16:34:42 UTC  

@TaLoN132 You can't honestly be asserting that the left and right are comparable in any way shape or form.

2020-11-22 16:34:55 UTC  

I mean...really?

2020-11-22 16:35:06 UTC  

Why not?

2020-11-22 16:38:30 UTC  

4 years ago, Hillary Clinton was in a worse position. She lost a close election - but had won the popular vote. Hours after the race was projected for Trump, she conceded. Her campaign continue to explore options leading up to the Electoral college, but the Obama administration proceeded to help Trump's team with the transition. That is how things have been done for 240 years, with the exception of 2000 when the presidency was determined by 537 votes.

2020-11-22 16:38:56 UTC  

Show me the rights version of this. I will wait.

2020-11-22 16:39:04 UTC  

This is delusion.

2020-11-22 16:39:42 UTC  

The right is NOT doing anything like this. They aren't chasing people down and beating them senseless for exercising their right to support a candidate.

2020-11-22 16:40:05 UTC  

To suggest otherwise is insane.

2020-11-22 16:40:49 UTC  

The usual defense of this comes from 2017.

2020-11-22 16:41:00 UTC  

But it is horrendously disproportional violence.

2020-11-22 16:41:07 UTC  

Political violence anyway.

2020-11-22 16:41:11 UTC  

"Very fine people". Yeah, wait for it...

2020-11-22 16:41:14 UTC  

The big difference is that there were not allegations of widespread cheating. Trump won fair and square. The world series is decided by who wins 4 games; not by who scores the most runs.

2020-11-22 16:41:24 UTC  

What?

2020-11-22 16:41:29 UTC  

Trump won what? 2016?

2020-11-22 16:41:44 UTC  

Of course 2016.

2020-11-22 16:42:03 UTC  

We hear a lot of people saying he won 2020 as well, so I have to make sure.

2020-11-22 16:42:20 UTC  

There weren't allegations of cheating in 2016??? Were you on the moon?

2020-11-22 16:42:36 UTC  

I'm also certain that he won 2020.

2020-11-22 16:42:47 UTC  

I definitely differ there.

2020-11-22 16:43:25 UTC  

There were allegation of "Russian collusion". But they were rather vague. No one ever alleged a single vote was changed or slipped into the counting.

2020-11-22 16:43:52 UTC  

@GregInHouston2 It's funny that you say that, but if you believe that cheating is happening now, you have to believe that it existed in 2016. SIdney Powell and Russ Ramsland are asserting that the capability to do this was embedded in the dominion sw pre-2012.

2020-11-22 16:44:04 UTC  

But it would still be cheating, the semantics of how dont matter.

2020-11-22 16:44:19 UTC  

So, if there is cheating now... There was cheating in 2016.

2020-11-22 16:44:28 UTC  

@TaLoN132 Why do I have to believe it happened in 2015?

2020-11-22 16:44:38 UTC  

Except the argument you're making is that cheaters always win, @TaLoN132

2020-11-22 16:44:41 UTC  

That was a typo. 2016.

2020-11-22 16:44:43 UTC  

Which isn't logically consistent.

2020-11-22 16:45:11 UTC  

Or... maybe the will of the people was expressed in both elections and one losing candidate acted with grace and the other is just a sore loser.

2020-11-22 16:45:16 UTC  

Cheaters win if they aren't caught.

2020-11-22 16:45:37 UTC  

Grace? Haha. Im bowing out of this one.

2020-11-22 16:45:42 UTC  

Hillary did not act with any semblance of grace.

2020-11-22 16:45:44 UTC  

I apologize.

2020-11-22 16:45:47 UTC  

@Maw I'm making the opposite argument

2020-11-22 16:45:49 UTC  

@TaLoN132 She was a soar loser but so what?

2020-11-22 16:46:01 UTC  

*sore*
