"But all the whataboutisms are off limits when it comes to this side but not that side right?"
Do you not see that YOU have been doing this very thing? With your "whataboutbidens"??
As far as what "side"?? I am on "side"...I know where my news comes from, and it is most certainly NOT just one source or "side"...it is not even cable as that is simply far slant on both "sides" they are told what to say, cable is only going to give you "one side" only.
I don't watch tv. All I have is this lil ole screen and some buttons with letters on them.
I watch C-Span mostly. Hearings, Both House and Senate floor sessions, Committee meetings, Forums on many different topics.
I like to hear both sides and then depend on my own beliefs which side I more align with.
So when I post a Ytube video, it's not because it is one side or the other, but related to the topic at hand.
I do watch some podcasters like MattMorseTV, and TousiTV and Agenda Free TV, which mainly are keeping things updated with Geopolitical news even beyond Iran.
Sometimes those live chats are wild though, so I have to watch in full screen and ignore the chatter. It can be very distracting.
I sometmes watch PortlandAndy which carries live feeds on all the protests in various places, but mostly Portland, Or.
I'm not a fan of Fox News, I don't follow many people. I can not listen to CNN or MSNews or even OAN.
I would rather learn about history and geography of the places that are in the news at the time.
I did a pretty good dig on Hungary the country a few days ago. Then I listened to the candidates.
And all I can say is, Hungary is in a world of trouble. I will be praying for them.
Europe is filled with all kinds of political smorgasbord.
I'm also watching the Western Hemisphere from North to South pole. The changes that are happening are amazing.
I like President Bukele in El Salvador. They are building 2 new schools (starting construction) every day.
He has brought that country from a third world S...H... to a civilized society.
The gangs are gone, The children have good schools, not huts with leaky roofs to learn under.
The transition is wonderful.
Venezuela is still having issues. The people don't like that Dulcie? lady that is running the country. It is still under the same regime as Maduro, but they are working to get it together.
I bet they will make some good money with the Strait shut down.
That will help with the inflation they got hit with back in 2017.
April 17, 2024
Venezuela is a country that has traditionally been a generous host to refugees, but it is now facing one of the largest displacement crises in the world. Rampant violence, inflation, gang warfare, soaring crime rates, and shortages of food, medicine and essential services are forcing millions to flee. Nearly 8 million Venezuelans are displaced globally, with the majority — more than 6.5 million — currently residing in Latin America and the Caribbean.
This is the largest forced displacement crisis ever in Latin America.
So I don't always get my news from the same place. And I prefer articles or videos that have actual sources and not the unknown ones.
Sometimes I meme because it's fun to troll.
There is so much going on in the world all the time, it's hard to keep up with it.
But you have to know how to listen and sometimes you have to know how to read between the lines, or know when someone is being sarcastic.
Take this Swalwell story,
Knowing what I know about how the game is played to wait months sometimes days to say, OH he touched me 10-20-30-even 40 years ago. But I decided to wait until just now to reveal it. Swalwell is being used as a political fall guy for political election reasons.
Of course the other guy on the other side had to leave too, so it looks fair.
I feel the same about E Jean Carroll. It's all about timing and selling books.
Then we have these girls that stand in front of the camera crying Epstein touched me and others too but we can't tell you who.
Now they have been given a chance to testify under oath in front of congress, with protection and everything,
And they..... wait for it..... DECLINED.
Um. ok.
Next...
This AI stuff is going to get crazy. Most of what we see now is computer generated. Hard to tell the difference between what is real and what is fake.
So I guess we choose what we decide what we do with our time. Some lean this way, some lean that way. And some don't even know what the Capital of any given State is or even name the 3 branches of government, but they know they Hate Trump.
It's this hate that I don't understand how it goes so deep.
I mean Biden ...... We didn't Hate Biden. We didn't like he spent every weekend on the beach eating Ice Cream.
We didn't like the idea that he also kept classified documents in his garage which he as a Senator and a VP had no Presidential privilege to.
We didn't Hate him when the "transitory" inflation wasn't so transitory.
I think what we hated was the fact that his whole administration refused to see or do anything about the crisis at the border.
How they censored people on social media if they said anything against the covid vaccine, or that we believed the election was rigged.
But we didn't hate them personally. We made fun of them, called them out when they were misleading.
But it wasn't Hate.
I give one side only.... ok
How many that oppose Trump give both sides of the story?
I try to use my own commonsense and, I don't know, it seems if you have any sort of christian foundation of right and wrong, and you support things that Trump does, policy wise, there are a lot of good policies that have been passed this last congress. And a lot of good ones that didn't make the cut. But if you support anything he does, that makes you a worshipper, a bootlicker, a maggot.
I don't care, it's stupid. And I get tired of ignorance and name calling, and the sheer disrespect in this community.
I'm kind of feisty and I enjoy a good banter now and then, but when it gets personal, it's time to draw the line and shut it down.
I listen to Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer and Mike Johnson and John Thune.
And I decide for myself where I stand on those issues.
I will say that the propaganda campaign taking place on both sides is incredible.
Remember what Jesus said:
Strait and Narrow is the way.
Matthew chapter 7.
