I’d love to know what the author thinks of his own article, now that he presumably knows some people who have been hospitalized, and has friends of friends that are dead. Would he write the same the same thing today?
Or maybe he would just say that you can’t trust numbers since numbers are the province liberals, academics, journalists, and government workers. Which is another great example of conservative brainwashing, by the way: just cast doubt on every possible source of truth. Then whatever you claim, no matter how shitty, remains unfalsifiable.
Come on man really? First this is an article from May and he is comparing total dead to dead thus far. We are still going to have people dying in May 2021 so that was extremely short sighted and misleading. I bet the author has not come back to admit that 500,000 Americans dead is pretty darn serious.
The continued insinuation that actors across the globe were conspiring against Trump for some reason. There are 2 reasons to want Trump out of power. He is incompetent and he is insane. The coronavirus was not a conspiracy to make him look bad. It was a crisis that highlighted his incompetency and his insanity which made him look bad. The key is he made himself look bad all by himself. No one else is to blame but him.
We all have personal responsibility for our own actions and yes some parts of the US coronavirus response worked out under Trump’s leadership like the vaccine production in particular, but making mask wearing and social distancing a political issue instead of a public health issue so you could own the libs on Twitter was the ultimate exhibition of his unfitness for office.
Sounds like all the stuff Corn Row was saying back then. He liked to quote things from unnamed internet sources like 90% of the deaths in Italy attributed to covid weren’t really due to covid. That sounds a lot like what the article claimed.
OAN will be airing a 3 hour movie from the mypillow guy called “Absolute Proof” . It’s paid programming detailing how the election was stolen from Trump. OAN frequently reports absolutely fraudulent news as facts, but this infomercial is even a bit much for their usual standards. They will apparently include disclaimers that it is paid programming and “opinion only”
In other news, at least two late-night talk shows showed the NewsMax guy walking off set as the pillow guy refused to stop talking about voting fraud, and the producers refused to shut the pillow guy up.
What’s interesting is that you KNOW there is a mic mute control somewhere, and the people near that button simply chose not to press it, 'cause “better TV” in their minds.
This will be at the same logic level as the flat earth video on youtube. Convincing enough for the gullible and stupid, of which there are too many in the USA.
These lawsuits are the answer to this issue IMO. Yes we have free speech in the United States, but you can’t just tell reputation ruining lies and call it free speech. Honestly I don’t think these people have much of a case to defend themselves against the claims of the voting machine companies, the only question will be how much money the judge determines he will make them pay.
I disagree. These particular lies are a wild exception.
They happen to be: specific, objectively false, easily proven, directly claimed (rather than quoted), and directly influencing billions in revenue.
But they’ve told thousands of other horrible lies that don’t meet the above criteria. They use vague lies, vulgar insinuations, unprovable claims, references to other liars, and they usually go after non-business entities like politicians or “the media”. They usually do things like interview a third party who suggests that maybe Obama is actually a secret Muslim Communist.
