Love the last part of this post….. I’d sit down at a BBQ with Floyd completely knowing his history and enjoy myself. Same reason I live in NE Portland and don’t venture to your west side!
I didnt originate bringing Floyd up. Someone else did, dont remember who. But, I still stand by neither person deserved to die.
Are people still arguing that Floyd deserved to die by a cop stepping on his neck and killing him because he had a criminal past? But somehow trying to whitewash Kirk even though he brought several hundred thousand people to spout and parrot racist, homophobic, bigoted and misogynistic language? Like, this is an actual discussion people are having? Im hanging out with Floyd all day. Kirk can go fuck himself and im never uttering a word to him.
I posted that anyone celebrating Kirks death is just as disgusting as anyone celebrating Floyds death. You the. Went into personal detail and I posted more criminal facts. But i did neither praise nor condemn either person. Simply stated anyone celebrating anyones death like this is disgusting.
I am saying anyone who repeatedly commits crimes against other individuals is someone who is not learning or trying to get better, but instead ramped up the crimes to using a deadly weapon to threaten to take others belongings. are you arguing that good people do this? One person was convicted multiple times. One was not. One is having their quotes drastically truncated and taken out context to fit a narrative. The other used a deadly weapon to threaten others. One did not. Facts matter.
And you believe that? So here locally, we should only get our news from Willamette Week? Nationally, where exactly do you recommend people get their news?
I'll be honest, I've been getting my news more and more frequently from other countries as of late. Murdoch, Bezos, et al have not purchased all those yet.
Depends on who is making the list, but by definition, foreign news sources are considered mainstream media.
A site I have been going to a lot recently. It provides a breakdown of how partisan news is. https://ground.news/
Cool. Glad to have it on record. So you think criminals are bad and truncated uncontextual quotes that still belittle millions of people is fine? Youre fine being on record with that? These are your words for your record. You get to be the author. Im just making sure you know the total story of it, as well. If youre fine with that, then we move on and I thank you for the discourse.
Project Censored does a fantastic job of reporting the year's biggest unreported and underreported news stories. I've made threads about their yearly list of the top 25 stories before. Here are the top 25 stories from last year. https://www.projectcensored.org/top...ing_wp_cron=1758146789.5774269104003906250000
But partisan and nonpartisan are still mainstream news. Kid Rock and SSS are saying mainstream news is the enemy.
if you think i care what you consider on record when you post things and delete posts? I could care less what you think man…
you are on record for the same but delete the records. Glad you hold other people to standards you yourself don't hold to. Lol. Could care less what you think honestly. Other than you regularly post things out of context, which is extremely harmful. So sure im on record. Lol.
