Watching some right wing clips and analysis, the mass of broad to specific lies they tell and misinformation they spread seems to encapsulate their entire worldview and existence as media pundits and personalities.

Daily Wire may be the absolute worst as they pepper their misinformation with stochastic terrorism and mask off fascist talking points, but in many ways Fox News is more insidious because they create the appearance of a regular news operation - and not to say the cable new media are great, but there is no sense of journalism at all from Fox and it's more radical online pipeline destinations.

Is there one area where conservative media can support their positions honestly? Just one issue or ideological belief?

Why'd you run from that other topic where you were whining about liberals not being able to define woke? Is it because you got blown the fuck out?

Liberals are not the ones using the word woke. It's almost exclusively a slur used by conservatives these days. Which means they are the ones who need to explain what it means. Liberals still use the old meaning for it, that it's being aware of racial prejudice and discrimination.

I'm well aware, direct your comment to specialkid8, I was referring to his drive by shitpost in this topic, the one where he turned tail and fled.

True, but when scaremongering about immigrants they convey a lot of lies and misinformation along with sprinkling in Nazi "great replacement" talking points.

Also they like some immigrants: Melania Trump and Elon Musk... wonder what the difference might be...

It'd be easier to tell you what they're honest about;

  • Hating liberals, or really anyone left of center
  • Hating women and thinking they exist strictly for reproduction
  • Hating minorities

Because if I didn't you would immediately accuse me of only getting my opinions from the left or the mainstream media instead of viewing firsthand.

Left of far right is too much of them. Hell, ultra right-wing but disagrees with Trump now makes you a RINO.

Liz Cheney is the perfect example, super right wing voting record and part of a legacy conservative political family - but she did the right thing one time and the voters said GTFO.

They are also honest when they say they want to cut taxes on the filthy rich.

But blatant bigotry and throwing more money at the already filthy rich are not good vote getting strategies, so all Republican political operations rely exclusively on lying to voters.

The right wing media is an integral part of Republican political operations.

What's new with Trumpism is an attempt to turn blatant bigotry into a vote getter, and this is working far better than it should.

Yes, while they lie about historical tax rates, they lie about the effects of prior tax cuts, and they lies about how taxes are collected, spent, managed, etc...

They lie about everything tax related... but you are correct, they are still honest about wanting to cut or eliminate taxes on the rich.
