Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
6 companies control all media in America
Julian Assange, and when they don't imprison them they just straight up murder them like they did with Gary Webb
Like the incubator babies? Or maybe you mean Iraq's WMDs

"The West" does all of this
Whataboutism? What about deez nuts?
You claimed the West has free press and doesn't imprison detractors, I gave you 3 examples of how this is not true, how is this "whataboutism"?
whataboutism
Don’t be fucking coy. Name “your country”.

It's blocked in the European Union, so a lot of people in "The West" do not have access to it.
Okay, what is this country that wouldn't imprison Julian Assange? I don't think it exists. I think you live in a country that would have imprisoned Assange and Edward Snowden.
Which would make you a hypocrite.
Whataboutism was originally used to defend Jim Crow any time the Soviet Union brought up how is an apartheid state
Whataboutism is an inherently thought terminating idea, to not be able to compare two similar things is downright anti human
No it may be worse than that, even insects can compare two things
Says a lot more about you that you even use that as an argument
This will never stop being funny.
If you shouldn't respond to bad faith with bad faith, what is the solution?
No, I'm asking you for a solution to what you called a "problem with our logic".
If you shouldn't respond to bad faith with bad faith, what should you do?
