I recently joined Pinterest, and I have literally pinned zero politically related info. All I pin there are science, chemistry, history, automotive, interesting places, and dahlias(yes, I grow dahlias! So, what of it? Wanna fight about it? Lol):lol:

I watch very few political videos on youtube, because I spend most of my time watching videos on those aforementioned subjects(still ready to go if anyone has a problem with the dahlia thing!) I refuse to join facebook, mainly because they try to force me to join. I have a new yahoo mail acct. I use Google for internet searches. You get the point....

For at least the last week or two, I cannot log into any of these social media sites, without being offensively barraged with 'pro-Hillary' propaganda. The hilarious irony is Hillary's slogan, "Love Trump's Hate". Its ironic because 90% of the pro Hillary propaganda that's peddled by these ultra-biased social media sites consists of angry, anti-Trump gibberish about how he will start a thermonuclear war, or some-such nonsense(Love doesn't seem to be an emotion that Hillary is capable of, such is sociopathy).

Someone should start a thread asking how progressives would react if it were THEY who had to deal with extreme right wing bias in 90++% of the media AND the majority of the social media AND with their children being brainwashed by right wing propaganda in school and college, AND it was their movement that was publicly ridiculed by republicans. In other words, if the proverbial shoe was on the 'other' foot!

Sounds like someone needs a safe-space.

No. I feel neglected.

Just do what everyone else who's a mindless Clinton-hater does: bookmark fringe rightwing media sites that don't vet their sources or do any fact checking and read nothing else. Then come here and link to bull**** articles a hundred times a day.

You're personal insults don't bother me at all. I see them as reaching for straws when you can't debate a point rationally. Besides, I don't even understand what your point is supposed to be. I left no links in the OP, and the basic subject of the thread is 100% truthful, as I am being barraged with pro Hillary propaganda from every social media site I log into(As, no doubt, you are as well).

As far as my last points, they are also valid, as the mainstream media have been protective of Hillary, and some have been busted intentionally colluding with Hillary in multiple ways. CNN admitted to it! Then you've got the DNC/MSM/Clinton conspiracy to take down Bernie Sanders. I personally know lots of people whose kids are being propagandized in school.

Instead of launching insults, followed by vague, irrelevant and inaccurate claims of dishonesty and innaccuracy, maybe you should try being specific in which points you believe are inaccurate, so that the debate can move FORWARD, and the points can be proven. Or, maybe that's what you are trying to avoid.....

Wouldn't you rather know the truth about your candidate, even if the truth doesn't fit your preconceived narratives? The hallmark of intelligent thinking, is the ability to put pride and ego aside, in order to learn new things, even if those new facts don't make you 'feel' all warm and fuzzy all the time.

Stubbornness and closedmindedness won't serve anyone well.

People will naturally go to, and accept the media that reinforces their beliefs and complain about that which contradicts their beliefs.

Conservatives still complain about the MSM even though Fox News is the #1 viewed 24 hour news channel (I believe this is still correct, I stopped paying attention to the #'s to be frank). If you go to country clubs and shooting ranges you're going to get a conservative bias (These outlets are very well documented as being attractive to conservatives).

Liberals complain about the conservative radio shows which vastly outnumber the liberal ones but don't listen to the liberal ones. If you go to buzzfeed or independent news organizations you're going to get a liberal bias (It's pretty well documented journalism as a study is more attractive to those leaning liberal).

I don't really pay attention to the MSM anymore and get most of my news from NPR (which has a liberal tone but not bias).

I guess my question to you is why are you downplaying the conservative media and outlets significance and only concentrating on the areas with liberal bias?

I think it is mindless to support her. And to demonize people by calling them haters shows when she or her supporters talk unity, they are talking out of their ass. Her administration will to more than Obamas to suppress any conflicting opinion or political movement. To say it won't is a joke.

They are out to destroy any competition for their narrative, and have done whatever it takes(proven by emails)to get this far. To support what amounts to bullies is not the American way.

Side point - Just an FYI the suggested media on YouTube is based on your viewing history within the subject matter that YouTube thinks you'll like. That's how they make money - by keeping people on the site and interested in content.

If you watch pro Trump videos YouTube will suggest right leaning media.

If you watch pro Hillary videos YouTube will suggest left leaning media.

If you watch center leaning educational videos with the intention of enlightening yourself, both right and left leaning videos are shoved down your throat :p.

All day yesterday I received about 5 robo calls for pro-Trump or Pro-heck camps and 1 for pro-Hillary camp.
