Manipulation culture by left wingers
July 23, 2020 at 10:27 am
Ever noticed how Media needs racism to get money? Otherwise it wouldnt exist. Anti discrimination laws in public and work place exists to not be cruel to people.
Its almost like an artform. To get money, be as dishonest as possible.

Or be as honestly dishonest as society will allow. Similar to how a troll is as honestly as troll-y as the forum allows.

I don't see how left wingers is relevant here. The media may use racism to get money but isn't it usually the right-wingers who are being the racists that the media are making money off of?
And I don't think such media profiting off of such things has anything to do with it being right-wing or left-wing media. Right-wing media may be especially bad but all journalistic media is kind of shitty.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

I think that the media could use just about any example of human misery and banality to make money. That the racists of the world have essentially turned on the firehose is just convenient for them. They don't need it.

You're good at genuine spontaneous witty quips. If a sockpuppet is an idiot who makes a second account when they are disallowed ... then what is a maskpuppet?

I believe it’s a term of opprobrium used by American conservatives and other mental defectives to refer to people who take the precaution of wearing a breathing mask in public places.
