Can the Republic Survive the Mainstream Media?

[Smokin Joe]

and then you followed it up with meaningless gibberish.......what was the point of the disney movie? a single instance of a very general topic? the context is shaky

as for my capitalization, or lack of.....who gives a shit

Did you see the movie? Do you know the topic? Do you know who Ron Dellums was? Do you understand the connection between the CBC and Socialism?

The Disney movie was an emotionalized anti-apartheid screed. Just in time to support the whole anti-apartheid movement, which helped put Nelson Mandela in power in South Africa, along with the ANC, which has since taken the country back toward third world status. Now, you tell me how that kids movie wasn't propaganda wrapped in emotionalist bull--political preparatory fire.
It is just one egregious example of how Hollywood uses "entertainment' to push political memes--and has been doing so for decades.
The only thing shaky about the context is your lack of cognition.

As for your capitalization, well, some things are case sensitive.

[Wingnut]

Sinkspur, are you back?

Can't be.  He hasn't post a single news article as of yet.

[Smokin Joe]

actually, I made one assumption ..... and I bet it's accurate even though I do not know a thing about you

sanctimonious? hardly.....I just have a functioning brain...... it appears you can't tell the difference

Your assumption was incorrect.  You'd lose your bet.

[Bigun]

Sinkspur, are you back?

No @Right_in_Virginia this guy @BlueHammer wouldn't make a pimple on Sinkspur's ass!  Sinkspur has some small amount of sense!

capitalization or case sensitive......who gives a shit

all movies are one form of propaganda or another.....just like Fox News is every bit as fake as any other news outlet (you have to have your head up your ass to believe otherwise)

but you do generalize and make blanket statements in a manner that suggest a lack of reason

Bluehammer --- leftist trying to knock things down?

Hey Blue -- you just earned top spot on Fishrrman's ignore list!

[XenaLee]

You remind me of this guy I work with....sounds just like you while signing up his mom for MAhealth and getting here on the state nursing home program

You guys crack me up

I posit that you were already cracked up when you arrived here.  As for your nic, you should probably change it to PinkFlySwatter.... just going by your performance in this thread.

modern psychology has proven that people who laugh at their own jokes are narcissists

Judging by the old saying, "What you don't know can't hurt you," he's practically invulnerable.

Oh look.  Yet another instance where you have misread or misinterpreted.  I'm not laughing at my own jokes.  I'm laughing at you!   

[LMAO]

 Suppose the answer to this question is no. What do people propose should be done about the mainstream press?  Should we create a government agency that monitors the media? The fairness doctrine? Or, simply accept that all media, I don’t care if it’s Fox news or CNN, has a bias?

Just because you can't or don't understand what I am saying, doesn't mean I am wrong. It is merely a comment on your ability to comprehend. The statements were derived from years of observation, examples were given, the connections are obvious. Your dissimulation has been noted. SO, next question, are you the 'blue hammer' come to bash your way around this forum?? Have much fun over at DU or Kos with this?

Good point @Bigun

I understand perfectly what you're trying to say.

I have no idea what either of those places are.

like I said, I'm just trying to help.....trying to ease your pain

[Smokin Joe]

Right. But you knew they are places.
You don't capitalize your sentences, a convention often practiced by narcissistic teens to twenty somethings.
After that the ezra pound fantasies go away...
About that last:
I have no pain. I lead a grand life, am well thought of in my field, have a large and wonderful extended family, no money worries, and good health. I am the unworthy recipient of the Blessings of a loving and forgiving God.
In short, I have no pain to ease.
Another of your  assumptions that lands squarely on one end or the other of your spine.
But like a typical liberal, here you are offering to alleviate a problem I don't have, and claiming to 'help'.
Move on, Mother Theresa, there are others far more worthy of your assistance than me, and far more needful.

WTF do you know about my pain? 

As Joe said above, when I want your help, I'll ask for it.  (Spit!)

What you and the other leftists know about my "pain":

I'm a generally happy person, too.  I worked a full life, doing what I really liked to do, and now I'm retired. 

Why do leftists think we're all miserable?  What kind of wild fantasies do they have about us on the right?  And, the constant lecturing, giving us all that goodness they carry/spew from on high.  We should all be proud to be lectured by the likes of @BlueHammer.

It’s 2016 and thanks to Donald Trump, democrats have started imploding.

So here comes the main stream media...

Sorry...

[To-Whose-Benefit?]

@XenaLee

Well, he is citing modern psychology as his unimpeachable source, you know?

That field which has yet to cure Anyone except Themselves and their co-workers of Anything.

100% Vaporware.



Like AOC, facts don't matter when you own the moral high ground.

He's really a hoot.  I hope he sticks around (isn't gone).   We could use some levity around here (these days).

that's exactly what people who portray the dunning-kruger will try to convince others of

Lmao, well, how cute is this.  Somebody thinking he's gonna be all edgy by posting on a conservative forum.  Going to shock us and shake us up, huh?

What are you, one of those fossils from Democratic Underground?  Does that place still even exist?

You're going to have to up that troll game.  It's weak.
