MSNBC literally said today that Trump supporting congressmen have sold their soul and it clicked for me that the evil villain always reveals his secret plot. You know why? Projection. Their conscience just has to let out the plan somehow so it tricks you when you’re evil.

Also, Maddow is Hitler (and Biden and Taper and Lemon). Maddow referenced Hitler so many times that I looked up his propaganda techniques. Hitler’s big lie philosophy. They used Russian disinformation. We’ve been duped ya’ll.

It's just raw footage of McConnell giving a speech, it's not like it really matters what the source is in this case...

If there were 3 hotdog stands on a street, all charging the same thing, but one would slit a puppy's throat every time someone bought a meal from them, does the source of your meal really matter?

If you're worried that CNN is going to get 1/1000th of a penny from you watching ads on one of its YouTube videos, you have some options here: 1) use an adblocker, 2) access it through invidious, or 3) go find the clip from some other source. I don't like CNN either, and I also think it's very much a trash source, but it's a little ridiculous to think that linking to one of their videos is in any way, shape, or form an endorsement of their propaganda.

And what happens when you get a million people going "It's a trash source.....bbbbbuuuuutttt my view won't matter!"

Every view matters, even with ad block, they shove their view totals in advertisers faces in order to get more money. If you really cared you would've found the clip from a smaller, more ethical outlet.

Alright, so we should completely ignore CNN altogether, which will give them 2 fewer views in their view counts, and now we have no idea what narratives they're pushing, and now we are unable to counter those narratives... great idea /s

If you really cared you would've found the clip from a smaller, more ethical outlet.

If you really cared, you'd be doing that too, but right now you're just complaining without contributing anything useful. Also, make sure you don't link to anything on YouTube ever since Google also has its own propaganda machine. I, on the other hand, am not even claiming that I care in the slightest about CNN getting a very small handful more views out of the 1.3 million that it already has, and I'm not going to spend half an hour trying to find the clip from a "smaller, more ethical outlet". I try to link to those kinds of sources whenever it's reasonable to do so, but it's pretty ridiculous to demand that smaller outlets be the only place we can get information from when many times there's information that just isn't available from anywhere but the big outlets.

2 fewer views makes a hell of a difference when 2 fewer views from 2 other people and 2 fewer views from 2 more people start piling up.

You can tell an outlet's narrative by what's going on in real life. Is it something bad for democrats? Then hide it. Is it something that can be spun to hurt republicans? Then blow it out of proportion. You don't have to click to links to know a narrative as every fucking site that can shoves this shit down people's throats, so you can easily tell the narrative by the headlines and how much the media is pushing it.

I've donated to bitchute, so I've done more to break up the google monopoly than you have I bet. Also it took me 2 seconds to find this from Sky News Australia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qq7dsD5zXp4

You were just being lazy and grabbed CNN.

Sky News Australia.

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CNN is trash, but Sky News is totally fine! I had no idea that Sky News, which is owned by the largest media conglomerate in Australia, counts as a "smaller, more ethical outlet". Is this a Poe's Law? Please tell me this comment of yours was supposed to be satire!

An Australian outlet is Australia's problem. They're not going to be inciting violence on the same level as CNN has the past 6 years.

Sorry, but when you said that I needed to link to a "smaller, more ethical outlet", I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you meant an actual small, independent, non-corporate media outlet, but now that it's clear that by "smaller, more ethical outlet", you actually meant "another, different giant corporate media conglomerate, only one that pushes a conservative corporatist agenda instead of a liberal corporatist agenda", you've removed any amount of doubt that I was willing to give you the benefit of.

    See the video of other protests, like the 2007 Iraq Vet protest, or more recently the BLM protests. The capitol pigs and DHS storm troopers are the armed forces, with every weapon and toy and trick in the book at their disposal. Unless, of course, they are ordered by some command authority to stand down, and open the gates to let ‘em walk right in.

    Definitely, it's totally absurd to believe that these people were able to overpower the police and barge right into the Capitol building, there's even fucking video of the cops letting them in. CLEARLY the whole thing was staged in order to justify further crackdowns on our First Amendment rights. Granted, the state is a lot more fragile than I think most people realize, but not that fucking fragile, LMFAO!
