There’d be hardly any parents left if you could jail bad parents on whim based on a singular observation.
Then many of those kids would be even worse off…
Thinking back to the very “concerned parents” of my childhood, they were usually the over protective lunatics
I definitely read “sharting” at first glance
“Wild Polio” is almost eradicated, not the polio caused by the oral vaccine lol

Energy producers (one of the largest industries) of all kinds input propaganda into the world about their business - and their business is tied to climate research for public perception. Climate is definitely a manipulated message in one form or another
“Misleading Ads, funding experts, lobbying opinions”
This is also just every large industry/corporation ever
100%
Tabloids are the OG click baiters
Yeah hah, probably. I just think the amount of people discussing/up-voting a tabloid article is hilarious
Marketing: 1 The people: 0
I always trust salon.com for my unbiased political news…

Suck your foot all you want
Biden is like Trump’s kryptonite. Trump always tries to get in the other guys head.
Can’t get in Biden’s head…Bidens not in there, good luck dude
This is pretty accurate
Haha yeah I’ve seen the same. A lot of things I see people saying today all feel like part of the Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit song where shes singing
when logic, and proportion have fallen sloppy dead, and the white knights are talking backwards <- And the red queens off with her head
Just remember what the dormouse said
Obviously laws don’t exist in countries where white people are a minority. But if they did, and they hired citizens to enforce it, they’re now racists and bigots forever
/s
Are they all bastards though?
You don’t think there’s any of them out there trying to actually help?
If you think it’s all about getting power and bullying others, then I’d say you’re showing us what human dynamics you think have the highest value. Like a form of projection.
There are genuine people that actually do want to help that work in these fields.
Would you want to keep showing up to the worst day of peoples lives and see how you can help? Like the constant shootings, stabbings, car crashes, or domestic violence for example.
If it was all about power, there’s way more lucrative industries that require half the effort.
I have no idea what this dude’s background is like specifically, maybe he is a bag of shit, but it’s unfair to lump every individual person into black and white categories
I’d love a world like that too, and I think most people would. There’s just too many different cultures and opposing views that we won’t be able to have just a single truth though. Like the Palestine vs Israel stuff for example.
It’d be very dangerous if there was a small governing body of people that gets to decide what’s truth and what isn’t. Maybe if we could figure that out openly, with the public, and have it decentralized and no singular group could control a narrative, maybe we’d inch closer to that ideal
Fair enough, but censorship won’t fix the underlying issue that people aren’t taking the time to think about what they’re reading/watching. It might make it worse once it becomes information “they don’t want you to see”
All the media outlets say stupid shit like that lol. Extreme emotions is what drives viewership for all of them.
All I’m saying is I’d rather have it out in the open (so you can see the stupidity, just like you did with Fox) - rather than censored.
How would you know Fox corp is full of bad actors without seeing actions like that? Now you know not to trust them, and the people it’s connected to.
Fascists restrict speech, more than anyone else.
That restricted speech, coupled with propaganda is what is dangerous. The fact that there’s propaganda, and then a completely opposing view also existing, is a good thing. It means free speech is working and we all need to be diligent about what we take in. “Don’t believe everything you read!”
I don’t want to outsource the cognitive load of who and what I should be trusting, while watching what I say, because that’s exactly how you end up in a fascist state
I’d argue it’s always been 10:1, we just have access to all of it at the click of a button, and it’s all now recorded - remember how many old wives tales used to get shared around back then?
“Bubblegum stays in your stomach for YEARS!” “Shaving makes your hair come back thicker” “Don’t crack your knuckles, it’ll give you arthritis!”
And now we have the ability to cast these claims against their opposers, where as before it would’ve been much more difficult to uncover.
But to your point about believing people with skin in the game, I’d say that’s a great idea - if we can keep it decentralized and as open to the public as possible, all at the same time. Pharmaceutical companies have a lot of exemptions from this kind of thing though, we’d need a method for them as well
Lol! Touché
