This topic comes from emotion rather than data supported facts. Data shows that mainstream media is biased. 9 of the top 10 mainstream media companies lean left. Even the left opinions that mainstream media is left biased. I have shared this data directly. People did not lose trust in the mainstream media because it goes against their beliefs. Rather, people lost trust in the mainstream media because it was making statements that the consumers knew to be wrong. And now people are increasingly looking for media of any form that provides a verifiable truth. This is hard to newly comprehend, but also, it is true.

This is a decent representation...

https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2021/11/09/progressive-left/ Favor a bigger government providing more services Government services should “greatly expand” from current levels Broadly support substantial hikes in tax rates for large corporations and high-income households Sizable majorities say White people benefit from societal advantages that Black people do not have Most U.S. institutions need to be completely rebuilt to ensure equal rights for all Americans regardless of race or ethnicity Positive views of political leaders who describe themselves as democratic socialists. 10% warm feelings to Republicans on a scale of 1 to 100 Success in life is largely outside of an individual’s control. Personal fortunes are bad for the country There are other countries better than the U.S. Use renewable energy only Illegal immigrants make their new communities better Transgender acceptance is good Strongly support BLM Country needs more attention to historic slavery and racism Spending on police should decrease Highest share of Covid vaccinators and mask wearers

This isn't a debate. Correct the chart.
-
This chart shows broad themes, not strict rules, and lacks nuance. It doesn’t imply everyone fully aligns with these views on the left or right. The goal is clarity, not debate or criticism. I started with a more detailed analysis and then abstracted into a guide. What needs better clarity?

This table attempts to break down major differences in progressive (left) and conservative (right) values on government, society, and personal responsibility. It attempts to show how each side sees key issues, from justice to individual rights. Is it accurate? My hope is to understand views to have a better discussion of where someone is coming from. This does not cover traditional liberalism, which differs from modern leftism. For example, John F. Kennedy, a liberal Democrat, believed that fundamental freedoms were rights granted by God rather than the state. When I think of Democrats today, my first thought is that the majority are now the progressive left portrayed in the media. Is that true?

How to think critically about what the media is telling you?
jross replied to jross's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
Based The leftist freaking out have their entire world system based on emotion. When you question the world as they know it, it feels like their world is ending. It is terrifying to them. It is not a matter of intelligence. It is psychological. They cannot see past the brainwashing and propaganda. All you can do is try to love someone as they are, meet them where the are, acknowledge their fears, and be patient. You are the sober person in a room full of drunks. -
Donald Trump 47th President of the United States.

Prioritizing identity over merit to determine outcomes is tremendously racist and sexist. Not all Democrats prioritize identity over merit. -
Since there are no better options...

Make it make sense. The anti-Trump propaganda, money spent, assassination attempts, and overall motivation was greater in 2024 than 2020, yet the D votes were down. -
There was no fraud in Georgia like there was no abuse in the pews. Deniers are willfully blind to the evidence, hoping it’ll magically disappear.

I watched this live in 2020… took awhile to find a copy. 98% of votes are in. We don’t guess. Trump is a lock even if 100% of remaining votes are for Biden.

Another case in Georgia that is not publicly shared. The board decides to discuss the matter of SEB 2023 25 in private. Selected this video (the second one displayed) because you can hear the audience clamoring for transparency. Rossi explains... You can also read this letter - https://www.scribd.com/document/686826944/SEB202325violationsfoundcategory-Copy STATE ELECTION BOARD Dear: Joseph Rossi RE: SEB2023-025 As a courtesy, you are hereby informed that a matter regarding which you provided information to the State Election Board is on the agenda for the Board’s meeting to be held on December 19, 2023, at 8:30 A.M. The meeting will take place at the Georgia State Capitol, Room 341. You are not required to attend but are welcome to attend if you wish. Only the respondent, as the party who is accused of a violation, is entitled to be heard on the allegations. The respondent, as the party accused, but no other party or parties will be afforded the opportunity to offer input for the Board to consider in determining whether a violation was committed and the disposition of the matter. The matter involves allegations that were investigated by experienced investigators. During the investigation, the investigators considered facts initially supplied when the matter was opened and any other relevant information obtained and developed regarding the allegations. The investigators have prepared for the Board’s exclusive use a written report which is provided to each of the Board Members to review and study prior to the meeting. The report contains, where appropriate, an evaluation of whether the respondent(s) violated either state election law or State Election Board rules. At the Board meeting, investigators will present to the Board the findings of their investigation. The Board will make its own independent determination of whether there was or was not a violation. The Board has separated complaints that will be heard at the meeting into two groups: those in which investigators found a violation and those in which they did not. This matter is in the violation-found category. The Board has sole discretion to determine if a violation occurred and, if so, how a matter will be resolved. If the Board finds that there has been no violation, the complaint will be dismissed. If the Board determines that there has been a violation, the Board has several options, including but not limited to referring the matter to the Attorney General and/or a District Attorney or issuing a Letter of Instruction. The Board thanks you for your participation in our electoral process and in its ongoing quest for open, accessible, fair, transparent, and trustworthy elections. Sincerely, The Georgia State Election Board 2 Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, SE Suite 802 West Tower Atlanta, GA 30334 470-312-2715 ----------- Of course this continues to drag along...

Evidence the left is much more radicalized than the right
jross replied to Hammerlock3's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
There’s no easy or positive way to go about deporting millions of illegal aliens. There aren’t enough detention centers or judges to handle it quickly. If people end up held too long, it will feel like internment. And with more people calling this a national emergency, it’s bound to get messy. Trump should put legal immigrants in charge of this effort. -

I reassured her and tried to address each of her concerns directly. We discussed how the media often exaggerates or misleads, and I shared Trump’s stance on abortion, his record, and what he’s actually done, legally speaking. Medical care for the health of the mother is legal in all states, and natural miscarriages aren’t treated as criminal acts, etc. I offered her $1,000 if I’m proven wrong on any of this, with one request in return: a chance to sit down together in a few months and look at the facts as they really are. -
It had been 28 months as of May 2023 for the victory to move forward on ballot inspection https://www.law.com/dailyreportonline/2023/05/12/citing-high-court-ruling-ga-court-of-appeals-revives-fulton-co-election-fraud-lawsuit/?slreturn=20241108125843 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1l025sCm8Mqd8sOqkaIUxC25SRxTdhq0n/view As of September 2024, they still have not seen the ballots. https://voterga.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Favorito-Fulton-ORR-Petition-w-Exhibits.pdf That is... Favorito is suing the Fulton County Clerk to get access to election records under Georgia's Open Records law. WHAT IS SO ***ducking** HARD ABOUT TRANSPARENCY? This really makes you question what's going on behind the scenes.

I was following along the betting odds and when it was 98%, I was still concerned about being over confident because all trust was broken in 2020.

This could be a form of voter suppression, similar to voting polls. I trusted the heavy betting odds in favor of Trump this year because I believed the newness was representing smart money. Soon this may represent corrupted money. Imagine the stories if Kamala had been winning the betting odds. The only real concern I had this year of a Kamala win was when a reddit poster claimed they bet $10k for a chance to profit 18k. When you put money on it… I assume due diligence was involved. Also, the AMA was legit. This race should had been a Reagan landslide if you know the news is fake. The news would post a story and X community notes would disprove it quickly! Repeatedly! The reason my niece was in tears about abortion rights is because of the media’s bad information. The media was worse than it has ever been. https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/rich-noyes/2024/10/28/tv-hits-trump-85-negative-news-vs-78-positive-press-harris

jross replied to Hammerlock3's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
set a reminder every 30 days and see if your worst fears are realized. the media and politicians brainwashed my niece. she was in tears. “They want me to die. They want to give my rapist parental rights. I cannot get IVF. I will go to jail for a miscarriage. I am forced to give birth even if it will kill me.” all lies, easily discernible -
