The irony here is also the idea that all of this so-called propaganda comes from the right.
The left is constantly selecting it's own set of "facts" and tactfully leaves out whatever doesn't agree with their agenda.
Simply look at all the disingenuous pro-Clinton fact checking throughout the election. Just look at the number of rape, assault, race-baity bullshit that is circulated by liberals every day. There articles may not fly in the face of science, but they are usually equally misleading.
Is this a veiled attempt at trying to silence wikileaks? Infowars? There is a reason they are being called the regressive left. They want some articles to be banned from social media because they believe they aren't true. They believe, yet again, that people should not be allowed to make their own decisions in life.
- justinpombrio 10y agoPlease don't make generalizations about large groups of people. It leads to irreconcilable feuds.
- mememachine 10y agoYou shouldnt let a fear of feuds control you.
- justinpombrio 10y agoMaybe the word "feud" wasn't strong enough. Have you seen what's happening in Turkey? My Turkish friend suggested that's where this leads.
- slowmotiony 10y agoShould the world stop generalizing because it hurts your feelings? Because you could just look up the dictionary and understand that generalizing does not mean that whatever is said concerns every single person of the generalized group. It should be way easier for both you and the world.
- CaptSpify 10y agoEh... unless you have numbers, I'm going to disagree. I don't visit FB much, but I've seen enough other social media to know that both sides play the same game. They both leave out data, mis-use existing data, and outright lie. I'd love statistics to prove me wrong.
- mememachine 10y agoIms ure it is true but only one side has a dominant control over internet services.
- colordrops 10y agoIsn't that what the person you are replying to is essentially saying? That it's both sides, not just the right?
