This is the standard right-wing "bias" dynamic.

  1. Start with genuinely unbiased content.

  2. Rage when that results in content that leans left.

  3. Make accusations of bias and demand changes.

  4. Introduce deliberate right-wing bias.

  5. Censor opposing views.

  6. Claim victory for "free speech."

Israel assassinates journalists.

attacks on journalists undermine efforts to document the realities on the ground

And that's exactly why.

[-] WatDabney@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago

As intended.

That's most of why Israel has deliberately targeted hospitals, water treatment plants and the like, and has crowded the Palestinians into the smallest and least sanitary conditions possible. They aren't just or even primarily counting on starvation to do the bulk of their killing for them, but disease as well.

This has been a key part of the plan from the start.

I think that Trump is a delusional narcissist whose only standard for truth is whether or not he wants to believe.

If he wants to believe something is true, then in his pathologically self-absorbed worldview, it is true, and if he wants to believe something is not true, then it's just nasty mean people telling lies to make him look bad.

So this guy undoubtedly got his job by spinning whatever web of lies Trump wanted to hear, and that's exactly and only what he's going to continue doing.

And once again, the entire country and much of the rest of the world is going to suffer just to protect the grotesquely bloated and fragile ego of a fat, stinky pervert.

I'd love to play poker against him.

Reminder that Trump isn't carrying out an autocratic coup d'etat in the US by himself.

He has the active support and assistance of the Republican party and their politicians at every step of the way.

Trump is Pol Pot. The Republican party is the Khmer Rouge.

I think it says everything that needs to be said that the left's reaction to disputes is to protest and maybe set some cars on fire, and the right's reaction is to (try to) kill people.

Ah... this is such a perfectly Trump story. The Onion couldn't have done a better job of it.

The fate of the western world has been placed in the hands of a man who's the emotional equivalent of a four-year-old competing for daddy's attention.
