Dispelling the myth of a 2 party system is being a Nazi? Like Clinton said, you need a public and a private position, Whitmer's private position is now public

False Premise fallacy. We've not yet established the premise to be true. You sure trust far-right sources an awfully lot.

And you sure distrust them despite there being zero evidence that they make up items like this.

I would distrust their slant, but this is a video with no commentary. What slant is there?

There's a major difference between faking shit and misrepresenting shit.

If their facts are still true, I don't know what to say, but you do you man.

You sure trust a far-right outlet with LOW CREDIBILITY a lot.

Tagged nazi. Thanks for playing.

lmao you are a dipshit, read my comment history fucko. I am an american with cancer who had been pro-Ukraine this entire time.

[-] lennybird@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Good luck with your cancer.

But work on your critical-thinking skills. You take nazi bait way too easily.

[-] SnotFlickerman 6 points 1 month ago

and you just read what someone else tells you and take it as gospel even when they give you the opportunity to see their reasoning, which is well laid out on the mediabiasfactcheck page

You on the other hand need to work on your media literacy skills, because you claimed it was AI at the get-go and here we are, the video is authentic, and you still can't admit you were wrong.

If it were fake as Whitmer claims they could have captured and provided the audio from one or several of the other cameras on them at the time. Theyve had over month to do something. SNOPES confirmed the comments. Democrats dont give AF about the working class anymore than republicans

[-] lennybird@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Lots of Democrats do, actually! But that's another topic. Be careful, lots of Russian and Republican trash on here trying to spread misinformation and stop people from voting Democrats, helping fascist Republicans win in November!

Snopes only acknowledges footage happened and audio occurred but could not independently verify or make out what was said, which means anyone could use AI to inject what they want her to say. They left Unrated.

I'll make it simple for you, democrats are fascist. Pointing out that BlueMAGA operates on the same frequency as MAGA isnt spreading misinfo, its breaking down their similarities.

IF you read the story they confirmed what was said but couldnt clarify the context.

[-] lennybird@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

lol you righties keep trying to make this stick but it's not going to work.

[-] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

BlueMAGA

This is where anyone with an IQ above room temperature stops reading.

Thats where your cognitive dissonance kicks in and triggers an uncomfortable response.
