The Problem of Misinformation

Monk Of Reason

༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
I never said I consider FOX saintly or reliable in the sense that I would quote them in research. But I consider them a lot better than MSNBC. Also they are all "entertainment" in some sense but FOX does it more in some sense as they do not mind extended mockery.

As for misquotes I am referring to MSNBC's repeated habit of using newscasters to portray information or dialogue and chop up the audio/video or apply it to an entirely irrelevant topic.

For example, MSNBC was covering some topic some years ago. I cannot think of what it was exactly but it involved either deforestation or the creation of windmills. The Republicans accused them of trying to destroy national icons like the bald eagle and also to preserve forests. But MSNBC refused to bring up a single conservative argument because they must portray us as "anti environment." Unknown to many but leftist political ideals are the most anti environment of the group encouraging unnecessary industrialization for increases in population.

I will try and find the exact article or issue because it was the turning point which made me a conservative in the first place.
My point is that its glaringly obvious that Fox also does it. I can't really sympathyze with the sentiment that fox is somehow better about it. I mean if that is your opinion on it then ok. I just urge you to always, no matter the source of information, question its bias.

Do most Leftists support government aid in child rearing? Do they support bigger economic plans? Do they support systems of subsidization?

I never said Leftists intentionally support opposing ideals. I cannot make a blanket label either because my own brother is a moderate leftist and goes against the grain and is fiscally conservative for the most part.

But the point of all that is whether or not such programs encourage or discourage population growth. I am a product of government aid in that my own mother was able to have 9 if not more children while being a crack-head. She was able to keep her children though and receive very good healthcare along with child benefits through government programs.

I am also hoping that you are familiar with income ranges and the higher birth rates amongst minorities right?

It is actually a bit more slanted than this now but I can't find the most recent PEW report on this topic. But if somebody is having more children even with benefits to contraceptives and do so and surviving through government aid, this tells a pretty disturbing picture of how government aid works.
If you really loved somebody, you would not give them the means to destroy themselves. Yet along en masse

It does if you want to convince me of anything. Not saying that's your goal, though.

I am not going into nitty gritty details here. I am just putting to words the source of my disdain for POOPY Lips. (Perpetual Orating of Obviously Pissed Yappers) :D. I feel very proud of that acronym as well.

But what I mean by that is nothing insulting, it just means the typical jabber you hear from people making too many assumptions from stereotypes. Many Conservatives accuse Lefties of being dirty Commies, young losers, government moochers etc while many Lefties accuse us Conservatives of being snobby, wealthy, super religious, authoritarians.

You have no idea how hard it is to explain to people that I support Trump along with many Republicans while being an atheist and black. People find it unfathomable so much they think I accidently got confused thinking Trump is Hillary.
