It’s also ironic that the same generation of parents telling us to be careful online and “don’t believe everything you see on TV” are the same ones that get their news from grifter pundits and divisive facebook memes generated by Russian bot farms.

The funny thing is that you probably think you get news legitimately.

But the truth is that it’s all propaganda. The only difference between CNN and Fox, or reddit/Twitter/Facebook, is the angle.

But it’s all bullshit.

‘News’ doesn’t exist anymore, instead of just giving the facts, every article tries to tell you what you should think.

It is decidedly proven that Fox N*ws is much less factual than any other source of news.

Even they themselves said in court that Fox N*ws is an opinion piece and no reasonable viewer would take them seriously.

So don’t compare actual news groups to something like Fox N*ws. They shouldn’t even be allowed to have the word “news” in their name.

You’re dreaming, friend

If you think somehow CNN or MSNBC or whatever is more factual you really should take a step back and have a real close look at the media. Just as anyone who thinks Fox News is ‘news’

They’re all just two sides of the same fucking coin

It’s remarkable isn’t it? Now we’re the ones telling our parents to turn off the TV and get off the internet or it’ll rot their brains.
