That and right-wing propaganda. So much propaganda.
Just click on any video from a "liberal media" outlet, (like CNN), and look at the comments. (Or the dislike count if you have Return YouTube Dislike installed.)And then look at a video from Fox News. Nothing but praise for them, while the "liberal" videos are filled with so much hate from right-wing trolls.
If you didn't know any better, you could be lead to believe than 98% of Americans are Republican.
its not just an american problem either, same stuff you will see on similarly leaning news articles and videos here in australia. all rambling about the same inconsequential shit that the cookers and loonies overseas ramble about as well.
Its pretty funny that for the type of people that like to brag about 'do your own research', they sure are a bunch of stupid sheep that believe any idiotic thing they read online
Hmmm wonder what the common thread between media in the US and Australia could be...? 😯
If God is real, I'm about to read an article about the deaths of the entire Murdoch family.
yeah, we kinda wish he wasnt one of ours...
We can pretend. He doesn’t have passport.
Not sure if it's related. I've know a few channels that have non-political, but questionable/debatable content, and they have absolutely nothing but praises in comments. My bet is that they are using mod tools to delete/hide everything else, probably automatically.
Theres one channel I wont name (because i cant remember what it is actually) but its some chick with tourettes who goes into shops and has her boyfriend filming while she just knocks shit over and makes a mess, then carries on when confronted and makes out like the workers there are discriminating against her. I dont doubt she has a problem, but if anyone came into my shop making a mess while someones filming them WTF would anyone do? anyway, the comments were nothing but praise about how 'brave' she is and how hard it must be to live like that. I am absolutely sure any comment that points out how rediculous it is and does nothing to forward her cause are removed quickly
Well I'm only talking about political news videos, here. Sorry for not clarifying.
