Every two days a new thread with hundreds of comments of a bunch of liberals doing the same fucking talking points about the election. It doesn’t even fucking matter but so many people are just so enthusiastic to be hand-wringing or smug or whatever their preferred flavor of insufferable is, presumably mostly because they’ve been acculturated by liberal media to the idea that Trump is the apocalypse despite the fact that we already saw how Trump bumbles his way through a term!

It’s just so bad, you can’t talk about it anywhere there without someone leaping down your throat to say the same shit you’ve heard before.

      They’re quoting Marx which is being hosted on marxists.org, you brick.

      Also everyone is biased, objective reporting is literally impossible. Learn how to do source critique and text analysis instead of just gargling the same thought-killing propaganda you’ve been regurgitating your whole life

          Yeah I’m certain David Van Zandts personal vibes-based website is completely unbiased.

          Edit: sorry comrade, didn’t realise you weren’t the same doofus as the other guy

          Ah yes, the notoriously not-biased fact checkers. /s

          EDIT: HAHAHAHA. They have this rating for some countries, and you want to claim that they are not biased? HAHAHAHA

          MBFC’s Country Freedom Rank: TOTAL OPPRESSION

          EDIT 2: HAHAHA. Their rating for Pissrael is ‘MODERATE FREEDOM’.

          You were joking when you said that they aren’t biased, weren’t you?

          You are an ignorant clown if you think there’s no bias there. Just because you like the bias doesn’t mean it isn’t there.

          Decades of media pretensions of “objectivity” while still deciding what is and isn’t to be reported any given day have made credulous idiots like you very, very smugly complacent.

      Everyone is biased, dipshit. Including you and the sources you get your news from. Not understanding something as fundamental as this makes your smugness even more embarrassing than it already is. Keep it up.

      Tagline material.

      Marxists.org is a collection of works on political theory. They aren’t really biased beyond wanting to preserve the works and provide easy access to them.

      The link is to something written by Lenin in 1917, referencing something Marx wrote earlier. I suppose you could say that Lenin and Marx were biased in the sense that they had strong views but that isn’t a valid reason to dismiss everything they ever said, and that ignorant perspective is just going to get you laughed at here.

      marxists.org is an archive of hundreds of thousands of texts by influential sociologists, historians, political economists and political theorists. It’s not our “facts” it’s an argument in the form of a written text. Perhaps you should sit down and take the time to read sometimes and maybe learn something.
