@DarkRoast youre giving them the benefit of the doubt and thinking in good faith. That is not how they operate.

think back when trump was President. This happened a lot:

trump: this is X
his followers and the pundits: this is x, libs
*literally 2 hours later*
trump: this is actually Y, not X
the same followers and pundits: this has always been Y, not X, lmao libs
*half an hour later*
trump: its actually X
his followed and pundits: lol it was always X, dumbass libs

no one can in good faith react like that. They obviously act in bad faith. This is why they could see the carnage from 1/6 in video everywhere and then insist it was peaceful and full of love just a few weeks later despite the fact they say it with their own eyes

It wasn't quite that bad until after 2012, when the GOP started to openly embrace the concept of misinformation-spreading on social media. I think the key turning point was Sean Hannity openly promoting the Seth Rich conspiracy theory. At that point, it was clear that Hannity was going to be a gateway drug into that sort of thinking.

One of the biggest problems the GOP is dealing with currently is that their misinformation echo chamber is so tight-knit and the integration between it and the actual party is way too close. This cuts out necessary intra-party debate and has allowed a culture of fear regarding "speaking out and angering the base."

Kaley McEnany is a freaking Fox News host ffs.

It's a shame because we can't have a functioning democracy without at least two legitimate, functional parties.

As someone who is still technically registered Republican, I would never associate with them in any form ever again after what they allowed that Dipshit in Chief to do / get away with.

If the #NeverTrumpers like Romney want to form a new party, I might be interested, but even then it'd be a very hard sell.

at long last, the gods have granted me the luck i've been denied so long. i rolled all my saved up primos and now i have c6 yanfei (up from c0), c6 ningguang (up from c3), ayaka c0, mona c0, and got the mistsplitter off the weapon banner.

halle-fucking-lujah

C6 Yanfei is really, really good IMO. I have her equipped with Lost Prayer and she's a total beast because of how her charged attacks work in tandem with crits.

People always compare her with Klee and I find it pretty annoying. IMO C6 Yanfei is better overall than C0 Klee.

Yeah, I'm sure a small minority of trump voters like 1 in a 100,000 might turn violent. The same can be said for biden voters. Whites.Blacks. Doesn't matter. There's bad apples in every applicable group. That doesn't mean you criminalize the other 99.999% that just want law/order and the freedom to just life and enjoy life. It's insane everyone thinking it's OK to criminalize all of them just because it's trump. It's not like they supported him because they wanted to support a criminal. They did it thinking he was a good honest guy trying to do the right thing. If they're being lead by a false prophet (At this point I have no idea anymore) then help them see why they're wrong, you don't criminalize and criticize.

So sick of the lies though. If everyone would shut the god damn TV off, put the phone down and delete their online social shit and go outside and enjoy each other's company again and act like politics don't even exist we would have a beautiful happy society. Too bad everyone is in too much of a trance to ever actually do it. :(

Get the fuck outta here with this false equivalency BS.

As someone who played this on an RTX 2070ish GPU back when it came out, this looks vaaaaaastly better at 4K w/ Raytracing. Really impressed, especially since it's only $9.99 for the whole game on PSN (and free if you already have the PS4 version)

If you think all the facts surrounding COVID are "obvious truths" then you have the memory of a goldfish. The "experts" gave completely, entirely, dangerously wrong advice early on. When even experts don't get it right, it's the opposite of "obvious". All these fools demanding that Google and Facebook be the Arbiters of Truth and "just remove all the disinformation"... Establishing the truth is not easy. If the truth was obvious, you wouldn't even be asking anyone to do that, misinformation wouldn't fool anyone because the truth would be obvious. Clinical trials and FDA approval are a thing precisely because establishing the truth around medicine is really hard. And they still get it wrong a lot.

It's not about what is fundamentally true - it's about having a singular message coming from people who are more likely to be right. As has been said, science isn't about knowing the answer, it's about being able to discern the correct from incorrect answers over time.
