Campaigns of anti-US deepfake newscasts

How about you?

Top Fox News anchor says the company has banned coverage of the Dominion lawsuit that revealed how Tucker Carlson and other Fox stars privately dismissed election conspiracy theories while peddling them on air.

Lloyd Lee - Feb 26, 2023.

Here’s an interesting CNN story

David Urban a Republican, go figure.

There have been interesting changes at CNN

That’s why critical thinking and seeking more than one source of information is so important.

The other guy wants to seek the truth so much so that he uses a news app with a wide range of sources but doesnt look at left wing ones :sweat_smile: :rofl: :joy:

This guys brain is wired for conspiracy retorts

Yeah, I know the conspiracy theory about using the term “conspiracy theory”.

I don’t know how you concluded that from what I said. Oh wait, right, the same way you reach all your conclusions.

Ohhh metalhead , you are earning your nom de plume.
Were you even aware of that broadcast or do you only listen to Fox News?

That pretty lady was Kellyanne Conway. And if you were not familiar with her:

She was previously Trump’s campaign manager, having been appointed in August 2016; Conway is the first woman to have run a successful U.S. presidential campaign. Kellyanne Conway - Wikipedia

and current Fox representative guest on MNBC admitting that Fox stars were peddling lies while privately dismissing any election conspiracy.

IMO all Fox reps are still part of the gang, else they would have resigned as many did.

Now they are just trying to salvage the company from an ignominious death and justifying everything by claiming that all news organizations are corrupt, thereby trying to take down everyone else with them.
That is the FOX playbook. They are just a sleazy two-bit muckraking propaganda machine for Trump.

The same way when i asked you when was the last time and how often do you go to the left wing news sources only for you to skip town and avoid answering

He probably listens to Putin and his propaganda machine.

I will only take a point :

By opening my eyes !!!

Do Russia and China have free press, free elections, freedom of speech, freedom of demonstration against the government?

Akin to - How do you know there is a God?By opening my eyes !! Look, at the trees :sweat_smile:

Do Russia and China have free press, free elections, freedom of speech, freedom of demonstration against the government?

Freedom of withdrawing your labour?

That is just plain nonsense.

Moreover, in a democracy you do have the freedom to withdraw your labor. It is in Russia and China you do NOT have the freedom of withdrawing your labor.

You’ll end up in a gulag :

a system of labor camps maintained in the Soviet Union from 1930 to 1955 in which many people died. Wikipedia

ha ha. Great answer. Wave it away

Western democracies are not perfect.

At least, when you are wronged, there are independent courts judging your case according the the law, and you don’t risk jail for having brought your case in front of them.

During COVID lockout, millions of Chinese workers have lost their jobs, French government paid the firms to prevent that.

Capitalism, and Western democracies are not perfect, but as Churchill said, they are the least worst. I would willingly substitute a socialist system to Capitalism, but not a totalitarian one.

China and Russia are not mere dictatorships, but China is a totalitarian state, and Russia is turning into one.

What is the difference?
A dictatorship is happy when the citizen don’t protest and obey. A totalitarian states want them to think as he decides, and wants them to
bring their active support to the ideology of the state.

No difference russia china and the west. If you challenge power you are f@@ked

Very entertaining. Gives me great pleasure reading. What will come next? Cant wait

At least you don’t support China and Russia.

Anarchists have a saying:

In a dictatorship, the power says to the citizen : " Shut up !"
In a liberal democracy, the power says to the citizen " Keep talking", meaning "I don’t give a dam! "

I prefer to live in a democracy, sorry.

I agree with you. Where would that be?

I like how you twist things (sarcasm). It’s not facts if you don’t have the inconvenient ones. There are right wingers who can’t stand the fact that the U.S. was once a country with slaves and slavery was legal. They want to wipe it out of history books. That would be a historically a lie to do so and would not be educating our youth to erase it. Here’s another inconvenient truth for you- Germany, specifically Nazi, killed 6 million Jews, but there are people, in Germany, despite the evidence, who refuse to believe this inconvenient fact. We can go all around the world with this stuff, because it’s not just a problem in the U.S., but all around the world. Russia is one of the worst when it comes to propaganda.

Here’s another one of my favourites, but let me remind you, there is COVID-19 propaganda in every country, not just the U.S. Anyway, some people, in the U.S. alone, are so deluded, they believe and even say, that COVID is a government conspiracy. What? Did all the governments around the world get together and agreed to say there is a deadly going around the world? I think that would be very difficult, but they don’t realize just how stupid they sound when they spew stuff like that. Another inconvenient fact- millions (I think it’s 2 million now) have died from COVID in the U.S. alone, because of this stupidity.

Not all of us, in the U.S., listen to the propaganda. Some of us do actually take in the real facts, even the inconvenient ones.

So, basically Diogenes?

According to Diogenes, society was an artificial contrivance set up by human beings which did not accord well with truth or virtue and could not in any way make someone a good and decent human being; and so follows the famous story of Diogenes holding the light up to the faces of passers-by in the market place looking for an honest man or a true human being. Everyone, he claimed, was trapped in this make-believe world which they insisted was reality and, because of this, people were living in a kind of dream state
