I worry that this is where Republican talking heads are taking America. Too much information from too many places and too much of it is wrong. It waters down the solidity of society.
CNN and NYT were the major perpetuators of Levy's lies; this is not just a Republican problem.

Republicans are always going to lie, that’s just their nature. The news media has completely failed us for their inability to call out these lies, due to their desire for access to those in power.
Democrats are fully onboard with Genocide too.
Cut that shit out

Biden bypassed Congress to fund genocide
That sounds like he bypassed people that weren't supporting him.
Is your point that Congress also supports genocide? Or...?
Read it again but slower 👍
Use your words
Biden is supporting genocide. Supporting Biden is supporting genocide.
Why would he skip Congress if they support him?
Slllooooowwweeeeerrr, I can't understand it for you
Congress has voted to fund genocide a bunch too, you fucking doorknob
If you want to talk about the time Biden skipped congress that's one thing. If you want to talk about congress voting for it that's another. Either way, I'm out.
Good fucking riddance genocide supporter
no one cares
Fuck off
What's your favorite flavor crayon? I'll spell it out for ya
So Congress said "no" and he funded it any way? Not sure what point you're trying to make here
They very clearly meant Democrats in power and they're right
Cool so the democrats going to stop funding genocide? No? Didn't think so.
So much bad faith

NYT are running debunked disinformation from Zionist propagandists. They can stuff it.
Not going to listen to a publication that not even half a year ago was all in on fucking NFTs.
Still more credibility than the opening greeting in a Fox News broadcast

They have been at it for a few decades now.
Stop boiling this down to just Republicans. Dems do this shit as well. In this context the issues is not a Left or Right or Left vs Right Issue. Is an Up vs Down issue. For the record, I am left.
Those in power think they know better than stupid you or me and will try to get away and lie with what they can and get away with, to all of us, because they think most of us are stupid or gullible. Tale as old as time.
If you are on the Left, you most probably notice the shit on the Right because it is farther away from things you agree with/worldview in the general. So it is more obvious to you, but Dems do the same general corrupt type of shit as well. You likely have a blindspot and if you think you don't, you are lying to yourself. Just like people on the Right will see the Left shit better than their own because their own bias and miss their own due to their blindspots. They want all of us to be petty. Works for them.
Man, I miss the Spirit of the Occupy XXX movememt, of the early 2010's, the wealthy and powerful, from both sides got actually scared and worried, if for only a little bit before political correctness distracted everyone and made people fight over trivial things instead of the economy, foreign relations, unions, and going after banks, Pharma, the military complex and other huge corps. Stuff that actually affects everyone and not some tiny minority.
