I had the misfortune of running into a leftist analysis on Rich Men North of Richmond today. the thing that made me stop watching was when he said
in the next lyric, we can clearly see where this guy gets his news
gets his news
It made me think about my conversations with both leftists and Qtards alike, where they constantly talk about how news source x is unreliable and news source y is the one that tells the truth.
Anyone who is here from GamerGate knows that news sources are unreliable as fuck, as well as being highly prone to lies by omission and otherwise pushing an agenda. this is been true from CNN, to Fox News, to Zero Hedge, to Breitbart, to MSNBC, to any other online blogging rag.
This a world where if someone is simply "getting their news" from somewhere, they do not have the whole truth and are likely in a complete bubble.
One should not be "getting their news", one should be hunting the news and hunting the truth. anything less means you are just believing what someone else wants you to believe.

I'm gonna be honest, I hate normies like your brother in law more than the lying media. I do feel bad because they're the ones being victimized, and we're supposed to hate the elites - not let them turn us against each other - but I no longer give people the benefit of the doubt when everyone has a global network of information at their fingertips. I'd rather not have relationships with my own extended family or former friends if it means having to walk on eggshells around unwitting tools of the enemy. If the boogaloo ever goes down I'm not saving them.
If my grandma can listen, ask questions, and learn... I have no sympathy for younger people that can see well enough to find an answer for themselves. She set the bar too high. As far as I'm concerned anyone not even willing to look at both side and think for themselves has been a lost cause for too long to bother with.
Yeah I only see him once or twice a year so it's easy to keep things surface level, but he and my sister are the definition of useful idiots.
