This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind.

This has to be one of the most brain-dead "hot takes" I have ever seen. Both my wife and I are immigrants to the US and we both feel that the left has been driving us to the right, partly by incessant left-wing hyping from the mass media that started to resemble North Korean propaganda. 

Also notice the use of the word "ecosystem" as an attempt at sounding eloquent.

  I can tell you why they are worse for Biden than Trump, Trump is actively fighting them and has to operate with zero support from them.  Biden, completely, and utterly relies on their support to look in any way credible.    Remove their cover for him, and the reality is pretty fucking grim.

An interesting point of view. Not entirely sure I buy that angle (as the media organs will about-face if Biden ever manages to stop his free fall, as improbable as that may seem), but I can agree that Sleepy Joe is very much propped up by them to a degree.

Honestly, when someone lives in a headspace this divorced from reality, there's no talking them down.  We are at the point where someone would argue that the sky is "ackshully" green, just because Trump said it was blue, and truly believe it.

Greetings!

Yeah, Jonathan Chait is a total fucktard moron. The Democrats don't have a media ecosystem that supports them?

Just think abut how the media treated President Trump compared to how the media treats Biden.

The NYT even admitted to purposely running anti-trump, negative Trump articles every fucking day.

CNN, MSNBC, ALL of the "Late Night" shows--all of them, running negative articles, negative editorials, negative news reporting, negative "Comedy Skits" on and on, every fucking day. The Atlantic, the NYT, the LA Times, Salon, GQ, Vogue, Rolling Stone. Every goddamn one of them always being negative towards President Trump.

Fuck them. They can all burn in Napalm. Think about not just what the media actually reports and says about Biden--but also by what they don't do or say about Biden. No endless, daily hit pieces on Biden always searching for the drop of toothpaste to critique him on. Likewise, imagine the avalanche of criticism that could be spotlighted on fucking Kamala, each and every day. Three months of that kind of treatment against her that President Trump got would have her sobbing and fleeing to retire in a mental asylum somewhere fast.

Instead, the media routinely sucks on Kamala's ass.

   I am not saying the media abandoned him.  I am saying they just did the least bit of reporting as to reality.  I agree 100 percent they will cover for him as much as they can (or are told).  His fuck ups just went past what they can cover up.

I admit, the silver lining is watching these morons burn the last shreds of their credibility trying to prop up a senile old hair-sniffing plagiarist who was never more than a C-grade politician at best, and a straight up whore whose political fortunes were based solely on who she could suck off between her cackling fits and consigning minorities to extended prison terms.

Man, it's like sunk cost fallacy playing out in real time.

Maybe they're setting the stage for Biden's withdrawal due to his blatant senility and his replacement by Chameleon Lady and her diversity regime

Of course, she's already backed by the media! As you can guess, all criticism is simply "debunked racist far right conspiracy theories by alt-right white supremacist, anti-vaxxer, gun-toting extremists who are also antisemitic, sexist, islamophobic and xenophobic and a threat to diversity and democracy"


Fortunately we have fact checkers hired by Soros and the BBC who covered up for pedophile Jimmy Saville to tell us who to trust

I mean, she is both of India heritage and African heritage. And as the U.S. uses the "one drop" rule for African American I am not sure what the issue is? It's not mutually exclusive to be both.
We don't use the 'one drop' rule for anything, bigot.

We literally do, moron. I didn't invent that standard and it's no longer codified but it remains the cultural standard. The African American community adopted that standard. I suspect YOU adopted it too, unless you're claiming President Obama was not African American? It's not a literal "one drop" by the way that's just the old common parlance. It's more complicated than that, but unquestionably Kamala Harris is in fact considered both African American and a person of India decent.

To be fair, you have to go both ways. Her Irish ancestry means Kamala Harris is also a cis-gendered middle aged white woman, aka a Karen.

Yep! You are exactly right, Trond! All of these corrupt media companies have amply demonstrated how they are total Liberal Marxist propaganda machines, utterly untrustworthy, and utterly bankrupt of any morals or any kind of professional or journalistic legitimacy.

That's why nowadays I chalk them up to lying bastards entirely, and discard anything they say, or anything some Libtard quotes from them. It is mind boggling how disgusting they are. They lie, they fabricate, they deceive every day, in virtually every program, every video, every story they produce. It's so clown world that some pseudo-educated smug Liberals try to condescending insist such "News sources" are in any way legitimate, reputable, or professional. Anyone that is truly educated or even observant knows they have become disgusting, worthless rags. Pathetic programing that cannot be trusted for much of anything.

How is Kamala Harris NOT African American, and how is she a person NOT of India decent? I mean, stop dancing around here. What is it you think is so wrong with calling her both? Her dad is African-American and her mom is Indian-American. Dad born in Jamaica and Mom born in India. How is she not both? As for Irish she's what, 1/8th Irish and nobody identifies her that way nor does she identify herself that way?
