This is the kind of s**t that gets posted on Facebook, one of the reasons I dont use it anymore and frankly it grips my s**t.. why are you posting something you have found online and using it to try and prove you have some kind of overwhelming evidence that anyones opinion that different from your own has been brainwashed by the media, its about as stupid as rhetoric gets :thumbsdown:
Should Trump be impeached...?

Obviously the MSM is very powerful in developing the views people have. However, we often forget the fact that you don’t need MSM to make sound factual judgments and form valid opinions. Trumps behaviour (his impression of the disabled journalist) and his words (his discussion with the guy on the bus regarding what he can do to women because of his powerful position) are just two factual examples of who he is and what he is. This are nothing to do with MSM pushing a particular view and MSM is not needed to decide if this is okay or not.
Most tellingly though, he cheats at golf as tells his caddies to put down lower scores! Read that on line!!

Go to the source, the MSM cannot be trusted anymore, it is saturated by partisans that are activists before journalists and impartiality is a long forgotten tradition.
Typically use YouTube now, various creators on there seem to genuinely want to pursue the truth of matters and will tell you the story warts and all but even then they have their own bias and opinion so you need to make sure you have a good spread of sources that dont all just agree with each other. Its not easy but its worth it not to be spoon fed propaganda imo.

Works for me.
But I guess, as you lot have to read this, you won't believe me.
I 100% agree with him, my dad and grandad taught me the same. Never ever believe what someone tells you, go and find out for yourself, best advice I've ever been given especially these days
Read history, read the newspapers, listen to the radio then formulate your own opinions- but it remains that it is all based on other peoples opinions.
The source isn’t available to the masses I’m afraid - in perfect world maybe but not in our real world.
The nearest we can possibly get is a live TV interview - and Ive seen a few of Mr T‘s recently or have they been tampered with?
As we become more and more polarised in life, a balanced view becomes more and more difficult - a fact amply demonstrated by some of the discussions on this forum often populated by some very intolerant and vitriolic comments.
I spoke with some Officers from the Dutch army some time ago and one of them said that in his opinion “ the world is on fire”.
I find it difficult to disagree :thumbsdown:

Nice over exaggeration :roll:
Obviously I dont mean speaking to the man himself
Im talking about if you see a news segment saying something like "Trump claims Mexican migrants are being brought in by COYOTES" then a snipped segment of a press conference. Go look at the actual press conference, get the full context and you realise that he was talking about the actual Coyote gangs that are smuggling people. But that is either entirely absent from the article/segment or its a buried detail, this is in order to make him seem stupid or mental. Its lying by omission to push propaganda.

One big take away for me was how the city wasnt burning to the ground after the "mostly peaceful" protest unlike those BLM/antifa "protests"
I think trump needs to go and he is clearly dangerous. I would impeach him, so that he can’t run again. However, I can’t believe anyone thinks that blithering idiot Biden, will do a better job. The US president needs to have a strong character and Bidens is anything but.
I also find the Biden situation similar to the Corbyn situation. It’s like watching coronation street, where a character reinvents themselves and everyone forgets what happened in the past.
Much as recent weeks have shown trump to be dangerous, is he as dangerous as previous presidents that invented issues such as weapons of mass destruction, to enable a war that still rubbles on today??
Here’s a question I’d like to ask an American..........
So “white” Americans are classed/called “American”. However, black Americans are described as “African” Americans. Which for some reason the African Americans are seem happy with. The “original” Americans are called indigenous americans/Indians
By this way of identifying someone, surely the white Americans should be called “European Americans”!? Surely some of the “African” Americans will have ancestry in the country as far back as some “European” Americans. As far I’m concerned, describing anyone non-white, based on where they’re ancestors are from is as racist as it gets.
I hear people of all ages, political sides and races, describing people in this way.
Imo this shows that the serious, deep rooted issues in America cross all political / racial and age ranges and not just Trump and his supporters, as the media would have you believe
The whole country is a basket case and no matter who is in charge, that isn’t gonna end any time soon

Nelson Mandela charged with acts of public violence including mobilising terrorist bombing campaigns, which planted bombs in public places, including the Johannesburg railway station. Many innocent people, including women and children, were killed by Nelson Mandela’s MK terrorists. He eventually became President of South Africa 1994-99.

lol wut? How is he dangerous? The dude has been the least war mongering president in my lifetime :roll:

100% agree here but tbh I believe its more of a "anyone but trump" situation, the MSM has pushed TDS onto the american population for 5 years and its created a whole bunch of people that would decry him for saving a drowing baby just because its trump

This is identitarianism at work, something the dems in the US have wholly adopted, also those communities self identify as such, Latino american as well for example. It literally is the politics of division and imo is a total cancer on society, unfortunately it has also spread to the UK.
Looks like the dems are pushing ahead with another attempt at impeachment... pathetic
