Do you even know who Bloomberg is?

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Yep. I guess if some bias exists, the MBFC should completely discredit the source entirely.

That’s not what I’m saying. The whole point is that they are just supposed to identify the kind of bias. Bloomberg is decidedly not left of center by any definition. He literally got physically laughed out of the Democratic Party last time he tried to weasel his way in with unprecedented spending.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

As many have pointed out, they have a publicly available method for determining bias. The method is not "look at who owns it and make a snap judgement"

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Yup and that same public methodology calls the Associated Press and Reuters lefty. They clearly just want to propagandize by shifting the Overton Window to the right with a thin veneer of “science” and a side of “y wont u debate me bro”.

Or... shocking idea, the united states is far more conservative than most people on lemmy want it to be.

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Is that why they keep losing every popular vote and rely so heavily on gerrymandering and voter suppression?

Edit: also way to admit the reason that you like the bot is because it’s got a conservative agenda.

... wtf. Literally nothing about this makes sense. Especially this weird shit:

way to admit the reason that you like the bot is because it’s got a conservative agenda.

I implied the US is too conservative, that means, what, I am a trumper? Don't comment if you have no fucking idea what's being said.

Hint, I am on Lemmy. You entirely made shit up in your head about what was implied by my statement

I like the bot because it's a decent attempt at calling out misinformation automatically. You hate it because you personally disagree with the formula and therefore assume it's a conspiracy.
