Wall Street Journal, a notorious Hexbear front to push sissypee lies

Except your source is some site named worldaffairs.blog

Let’s just look that up… yep about what I expected, conspiracy drivel

It's literally quoting WSJ. Some liberal thinktank complaining about it is not relevant, even less so a think tank so vapid as to tacitly equate centrism with objectivity.

she also cited and linked to all the original sources which the worldaffairs site used, packed full of famous CCP-shill state-owned-media sources like: the BBC, Reuters, the Washington Post, CBS, the Wall Street Journal, etcetera

You all must be the biggest fucking rubes on the planet if you're seriously citing a site which claims that CNN has a left wing bias

How do you function? Do you just lose money on scams 24/7? (donating to your political parties counts)

I have a lot of issues with sources I know are right wing because they often spin things in ridiculous ways. Despite that, there's so much censorship on the internet the only places to look are on the fringes or in other languages.

Would it make you feel better if I cited a blog that takes lines from other sources out of context to change the message?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago

I literally don't care what you cite, I'm just calling out the blog you're citing now as ridiculous.

I've had my problems with hexbear but you're literally doing the meme of going 👉😩👈 LALALALALA when someone actually backs up their claims with sources. Like why even bother asking for sources if you're just going to dismiss them as "bad" no matter the quality?

[–] [email protected] -3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

His sources ARE bad, is the issue. Conspiracy blogs is not what I would call worth reading lmao

Only shitty source I saw was wikileaks.
