The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

This is an absurd statement.

It's hard to process, sure. But all of the liberal media perpetuated the RUSSIAN COLLUSION hoax and help front Star Chamber sham impeachment process that was ALL based on a bogus intel report.

And yet...those are "acceptable" source. Sure.

I have shown you yardsticks (media bias, Ad Fontes charts) where I go to get critiques of the sources and then critically assess the source myself. You have never shown that you have any standards.

Lulz. You showing me left wing "fact checkers" is hardly a refutation of anything. Here's how shamelessly bad a lot of these outfits are. I give you Snopes:

msn.com - Biden hard hat debacle is latest black mark for left leaning fact checking site snopes

Snopes reversed one of its rulings over the weekend to admit that President Biden did, in fact, wear a construction hard hat backwards. Biden was pictured during a visit to union workers in Wisconsin and the photo showed Biden noticeably wearing the hard hat backwards, with the strap and tightening knob clearly visible.

Snopes' published an initial fact check, admitting the photo was authentic but insisting the president was correctly wearing the protective headwear.


Given their leanings it's highly likely the people at Snopes think you wear hard hats with the support strap on your forehead.

Here, you are shown regularly that your sources are poor, riddled with falsehoods,

Double lulz. And here's the lazy logical fallacy again. Let me help you out: if the worst student in math class says that 2+2=4, he's right, no matter how bad the poor kid is an arithmetic.

But you people - despite supporting the worst of the worst - want to have it such that you get to dictate where information comes from. Not happening, homie.
