Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

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.

lol, your facts are from marxists.org? Should I also take advice from trumps website? Pointing to an obviously biased website is crazy

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

Ableist concern trolling shit aside, what is your "nonbiased" source, asshole?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 hours ago

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.

What's a site that's not biased according to you

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

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?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 24 minutes ago

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.

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.

Are the marxists bad

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 hours ago

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.

Everybody is biased. Denying one's own biases just means that you do not understand them.
