Typically, the bad guys are the guys who invade another sovereign country for spurious reasons. Yes, I fully understand the ramifications of that statement.

Wikipedia is great. Its a fantastic aggregator of substantiated leftist links, that are extensively moderated by leftist moderators. It can be reported for misinformation and bad information, ie: NON-CONFORMING to leftist narratives/consensus.

Have you considered the fact that you might be wrong? Have you considered that your facts might be opinions and that your talking heads are simply trying to increase their market share to make more money?

Have you clicked through all the links in a "leftist" article, then checked that source's sources? Or are you assuming they're wrong because they don't jive with you?

The right isn't the only group guilty of it.

The left does a bang-up job of pushing the mass shooting narrative, changing the goalposts when the number isn't high enough or weapons bans have left the collective consciousness.

McCarthy and the House Republicans sounds like a great punk band name. "God Save the Clown" can be their first hit.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a NEW contestant! Come on down and play pick your non-left source's source:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Januar...Capitol_attack

Okay folks, just scroll on down and select from the any of the following pravda news source! CNN MSDNC BezosPost Atlantic LATimes NYT

The same sources who told you that an officer was bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher! AND, from the same wiki that showcases in the headlining photo the Fisher Price Gallows that were erected with a sign saying "THIS IS ART." The same media who called it an insurrection (unarmed?) but eventually walk it back to what it really was, a riot.

Thank you for posting that link. Much more accurate than the bullshit "media bias charts."
