Everything happens according to Gods plan. Only hate speech I hear comes form the left and God ain't happy according to the election results.2001400ex said:

Thank God the American people saw through the BS this time.
And God? Really? Yes, God appreciates good hate speech.
You are the dumbest motherfucker I've ever argued with on the internet. And that says a lot.
How do you remember to breathe? -

Exactly, except when 90% of the time you get other sources writing the exact opposite. The media isn't what it used to be. Instead of just reporting the facts, they've become nothing more than a compilation of individual opinion pieces. This goes for the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, Fox News, Breitbart, MSNBC, ABC, etc. So good luck with that.2001400ex said:
It's almost like you should read multiple sources then judge the truth.greenblood said:
The New York Times admitted the national media isn't much better. There honestly isn't a credible source anymore. When the media went from reporting news to grabbing headlines and ratings they joined the group.ThomasFremont said:Trump played the game better, and that's definitely why he won. But are we really happy with a political system that rewards spreading propaganda?
John Oliver showed a graph that basically said that 60% (40% conservative and 20% liberal) of the "news" that was shared on Facebook was bullshit. And that a surprising number of Americans now get their news exclusively through social media.
Regardless of the outcome, we should all we wary of this wave of anti-intellectualism (both sides are guilty) that has only made us dumber and more divided as a country.
I know we all like to joke about "x is your source???" but we should start taking that question more seriously. -

Let me guess, Ted Nugent isn't conservative now? -
The biggest problem with media outlets today, is that we are now being told what to think, instead of how to think.

I agree that's scary that people believe non-factual shit and it mostly falls on the uneducated or people that lack critical thinking ability. Numerous times during the election, Republican talking heads would flat out deny facts because they didn't believe them. I'm not saying that Newt Gringrichdawg is uneducated or can't think critically though. I'm saying that the facts didn't fit his narrative so he would ignore them and then the Trumpers would lap it up.Sledog said:
