Crime Study: Republicans Respond to Political Polarization by Spreading Misinformation, Democrats Don't.

[Madmick]

this belongs in that liberal tears thread methinks

What, you mean your gut reaction to a "study" published in the "Journal of Marketing" shared by the "American Marketing Association" by a couple of pencil pushers from California whose salaries benefit enormously from Democratic policies isn't unquestioning, peasant-like deference?

Ah yes, the federal court was in that damn Florida. How could the powerless ABC news ever get a fair trial in Dade county where Biden only won by 8 points, when it should be in a more neutral place like Manhattan with 85% democrats and a judge who is a lifelong democrat donor for a case against the republican presidential candidate that they had to change the goddamn law to even file.

They settled so quickly because there's no getting around Slopadopoulos telling his defamatory lies on air during their broadcasts, and they wanted to avoid a humiliating discovery. Can't really claim it was a mistake either since Slopadopoulos interviewed the Firemarshall Bill lookalike after the trial and acknowledged that the jury specifically said no on the rape charge, even with the low threshold of a civil trial in the most partisan district in the country, then specifically and intentionally lied to his audience on air while he was trying to shame Nancy Mace for being a rape victim by claiming the opposite.

He also continued having "dinner parties" with Jeffrey Epstein even after his conviction for sex trafficking kids, and made his career attacking Bill Clinton's rape victims to shut them up, so another nice bit of karma for him there too.

No on the rape charge because fingering a woman isnt rape according to the law at the time

Correct, and when a 4'2 anchor on a major TV network tells their audience that someone was convicted of a crime that they specifically were not because he's trying to shame a rape victim on air, that is what is called defamation. Nobody actually believes any of it even happened, because nobody in history has ever wanted to finger a 60 year old lady, so if you're a TV anchor showing off for your bosses by trying to shame a woman for being a rape victim, and the entire basis for your attack is false, then congratulations on the bosses you were trying to show off for now having to pay $15M to the person you defamed, and adding to your own legacy of being 4'2 and attacking women for being raped.

You sound like you are in a cult. Get professional help.

LMAO you're in the echo chamber cult if you think Democrats are somehow immune to spreading partisan misinformation. They were saying throughout the entire Biden presidency that crime wasn't rising and there was no border issue. They started changing their tune when people in the blue cities literally started seeing it with their own eyes.

Yes only Republicans who take hundreds of millions from special interests are corrupt and lie. The Democrats who take hundreds of millions always tell the truth. Get a fucking clue.

When they cart out the "science is settled." Schtick, these are the scientists they are referring to.

 

[Belaya Smert]

You think only one political party lies to Americans when one side just does it more. Ok got it!

 

[ColemanwastheGOAT]

Unfortunately, nobody cares what you think.

We care a lot more about what he says than what you say, Koppe.

Democrats good, republicans bad, blah blah blah.
Just making it easier and easier for people to choose the republican side of they haven’t already.

Impossible not to. For every good ideas the democrats have, they have 10 batshit ones.

For sure. @payton is all for transitioning children to the opposite gender.
He’s wrong on every topic he speaks on. Either that or his gimmick is to look like a complete idiot.

Either way, there’s enough people out there that think like that which just goes to show how good the DNC and MSM are at brainwashing your generic average American (which TS is) who just has to have others to recognize their intelligence and uniqueness (they don’t have any). They follow all the trends pushed by corporate CEO’s who they claim to hate. It’s a sickness.

Now let's see what they consider to be "misinformation." The UN defines misinformation as anything that erodes trust in its' policies, agendas, agencies and "stakeholder partners" (public-private partnership bullshit). Basically anyone that opposes them is smeared as spreading misinformation.

The entire concept of "misinformation" itself is meant as a smear to shut down discussion, and it's implicitly based on an appeal to authority. It involves invoking someone or something with status, and claiming that what they say must be true because of their prestige, rather than proving the argument on its' own merits. Governments, "trusted organizations" and "stakeholder partners" (organizations in lockstep with government) decide what's true or not, and then they shove it down everyone's throat with automated deletion and algorithmic suppression.

Coming back as a returning ban after some time away because you genuinely miss your homies and are willing to try to turn over a new leaf and post within the rules and in good faith is one thing.

Guys like Koppe who are literally just back the next day with the exact same shitty attitude posting out of spite purposefully just to be a nuisance is another thing entirely and it's hilarious the mods turn a blind eye just because he's left wing.

Also wasn't Koppe banned for like wishing death on people? It's not like he just said a naughty word.

 

[cincymma79]

Right...

Trust no one is basically the first step into spreading BS, that's the first shit you hear at every single cult.

From the article
Although Republicans may understand the content is very likely false, they are willing to spread it.

Yea if the truth is disputed whos the authority that decides whats misinformation? Not to mention all new/novel information starts out as misinformation until verified, contextualized or tested.

Koppe is really gunning for that next ban i see.

Latelly, believing CT is pretty much just being ahead of the curve lol

Sources that can be cross-referenced with other sources.


See this is why i tell you the first thing they say in a cult is "trust nobody, not even us" then when your brain is all mushy they say "well since you can't trust nobody, you may as well trust us".

Pretending like a guy that you don't agree with on the internet is in a cult because he doesn't believe the government and media on blind faith makes you look utterly ridiculous. Is this the new "Nazi" or "fascist" insult by people?

 

[RoastBeast]

Is a legitimate source "some lady on the internet". Isn't that where the whole Haitians eat family pets came from?

Why wasn't Trump run out of town for this?

It's was not a legitimate source. Trump fell to fake news on that one.

Why aren't you blaming the media outlets that reported that?

 

[RoastBeast]

I was more asking about Fauci. I know what the senile one said lol.

As usual, you are proving the OP correct. Fauci never said you can't get COVID from the vaccine. Why lie when you could have just said what Biden stated lmao?

Fauci pretended like only rare breakthrough infections could happen when we know that is a load of shit.

I'm not lying, I just can't remember every detail of what every guy says. The point is that these guys lied to us and tried to make us believe the vaccine was something that it wasn't.
