"Only"

B/c Glem is so dug in on his 'Dems are pure partisans w/ no principles, unlike the GOP' narrative, somehow Glem frames a wide majority (almost 2:1) of Dems putting principles ahead of partisanship & calling for Cuomo to resign as a negative.
If only there was a way to compare which party had more principles in the face of one of their own being accused of sexual impropriety. Oh wait, there is, because the president of the united states was accused by 20+ women of sexual misconduct. Let's see how they compare:
NY Dems who think Cuomo should resign: "Only 57%"

Republicans who thought Trump should resign after 20+ women accused him of misconduct (Dec. 2017):
A whopping 7% (with 92% against).
But Glem doesn't care. He has his narrative and he's sticking to it, because that's how he does. 7 is bigger than "only" 57, you odious partisan Dem bootlicker.
Also, if you were curious how much Glem tweeted about Trump's many allegations during his presidency (as he has been constantly tweeting about Cuomo)...there's literally just this one tweet about it. A single time. When prompted directly by a reader. That's it. #bold.
And it goes without saying, but Glem never once called on Trump to resign. Or pressured Republicans for not giving a damn. Because that's what having #principles is all about.
lol

So the NYT politics guys did a Reddit AMA several days ago. This was the top upvoted post. And then the extremely predictable (point proving) response.

And the predictably smug/condescending follow-up Image
Needless to say, they were heavily down-voted and deluged with (acurate) negative comments like these

#factcheck: Hamas is not keeping the hostages to rape them, they are just raping the hostages they are keeping for unrelated other reasons.

What....is even going on anymore? Image
I just don't understand why certain people feel the need to downplay Hamas' awfulness. It's not that hard to say that Hamas is an evil terrorist group, while also believing that innocent people do not deserve to die because of it.

Yup, I was right. Thought @latimes was a respectable publication and not Intercept Jr. but I guess I was mistaken. This is unserious behavior.

Again, contra the lame "oh so you blindly trust the US govt" line from the above uhh journalists, the actual things to weigh:
Side 1- Israeli govt, US govt, every open-source analyst on this site & most importantly, the fact that the hospital was not destroyed
Side 2- Hamas' word
So yeah, I guess it's a real he-said, she-said if you just ignore everything but the competing government claims & also only pretend that the USG/Israel's 'lies' matter and not the fact that the initial claims by Hamas of the hospital being destroyed & 500-1000 dead, were a lie.

A lot of people I respect really, really showed their asses. And if they want to be able to maintain any sort of 'high ground' when it comes to journalistic integrity, really should at least make a basic statement that they got out over their skis.
And of course a lot of people who I don't really respect, but I don't expect them to ever admit they were wrong. Because that's just not what people do #onhere.
I'm not slightly 'gloating'. This entire site & almost all of the media falsely/uncritically ran with a characterization that relied solely on Hamas' word and created a major international incident. Sorry, if you don't think that deserves to be called out.

Just did a focus group with swing voters. One lady was drinking Campbell's clam chowder out of her purse thru a straw. One man asked, "Wait is Biden the Republican or Democrat?" Another inquired who the "sexy black broad" next to him was. Most were interested in voting 3rd party.
"Swing" voters are the dumbest people on earth. There is no need to treat them as virtuous. I get that not everyone follows politics like we do, but the gulfs b/w the 2 parties (and party leaders) have never been greater and if you can't figure them out, you are very, very dumb.
As far as not having seen/heard any important speeches front...the media just doesn't cover anything of substance that Biden says/does. Not with any sort of proportion to the actual importance. Now if he stumbles over some words (or a few stairs), that's a different story.

"Free Speech" absolutist Christopher Rufo celebrating a ruling that says drag performances are not protected speech because.......reasons. Definitely another Principled Free Speech guy.
And then when asked to substantiate why it's not free speech, just pivots to calling guy a pedo who wants children to watch porn (the case was about a drag performance at a college aka all adults)...and then all his followers do the same. Image
Every single one of these RW 'Free Speech' activists are just absolute clowns working backwards to silence/control speech of their enemies. Not a single one of them have any principles at all.
