As did the main poster. Except they put in the effort to attach a convoluted straw man. Yes they did link a bad dude to one source within a source amongst many other sources mind you, but that's not really conclusive.

I could have gone on a rant about how their source used X links which is connected to a know Nazi (Musk) but that's not really related to the evidence at all.

There are certainly levels of bias and a github FAQ designed solely to prove a point filled with unsubstantiated X links definetly seems pointed

You've done an excellent job of proving 1 person is acting in bad faith.

That doesn't dismiss all the other sources or evidence.

If you dig hard enough you can link a piece of anything to a bad actor. Most media is corporate after all. It's not like I've dismissed the several sources you've posted that quote X just because X is related to Elon Musk, a known Nazi. A source heavily used by that github FAQ btw

I'd argue they are ignoring evidence and resorting to the classic ad hominem

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem

Also you misread the context entirely the other poster was claiming that every source was anit-semetic and State sponsored. I never claimed anyone here was those things.

But let's just post breaking bad quotes instead

It's kinda neat how everyone that disagrees is conveniently anti-semetic or state sponsored and miraculously everyone that agrees with you is definently not biased or morally dubious in anyway. Very convenient

Ironically Trump is using the strategy to deport people

A git hub faq is definently a 100% unbiased source

Ignore the other source harder, but you've made it abundantly clear that no source will be good enough. We can spend all day poking holes, but all that will accomplish is you continuing to ignore an ongoing crisis so you can continue worshipping a state.

China being bad doesn't make the US good and the opposite is true. Both can be bad for their own reasons

LMAO, okay bud whatever you need to tell yourself to reject the evidence in front of you.

Enjoy your odd loyalty and State worship

Does the BBC work? They present both China's take and several other nations.

And for a non-western view how about Aljazeera.

I'm not into state worship, pretty much every state in the modern world has committed crimes against the people. It's silly to try to place any nation on a pedestal

But at least both countries are successfully attacking their ethnic minorities.

I guess the one building good public infrastructure and investing in science is still the better choice

Eroding democracy isn't an on off switch per se. He's been actively dismantling systems since day one. It is hard to say exactly when all is lost and there's no coming back. That could have been last week or it could be next month. I suppose that will be up to historians.

I think frogs in a pot slowly being heated to a boil is a better analogy. We were pretty fucked as soon as we went in the pot. If there's any sense we can maybe jump out, but eventually we'll die if we don't act

I'd rather die quickly with a small chance of taking out an oppressor than to die slowly in a concentration camp

To resisting

Very cool, enjoy your stay in the gulag. Since that's the alternative

I truly don't think democracy has very long in this country. Either the people rise up or die under oppression.

Our systems have failed

I'm not even Christian, but I'm starting to believe this guy is the anti-christ

Exactly, I definently miss the times when politics could be more easily separated, at least mentally, from the day. But at this point we're in an actual dumpster fire. There's not much else to look at.

Time for a drink....

The fact that this is considered a political meme :(

I once got a death threat here on lemmy for suggesting that democrats were better than Republicans. That was interesting to say the least
