The Economist Again Gives Proof For Decline Of The MSM

TheEconomist is a bunch of useless hacks stuck up the ass of the Davos Crowd. You don't believe any of this anymore. But it does suggest panic as they are slowly running out of steam.

Wow this article is actually total shit. Even worse than anything else I've read from The Economist.

It would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic. For one thing, multiple paragraphs are like, "Well, I guess Trump's first term wasn't that bad... BUT here's why it's definitely gonna be shit if he's elected again"

And then there's this laughable statement:

China and its friends would rejoice over the evidence that American democracy is dysfunctional. If Mr Trump trampled due process and civil rights in the United States, his diplomats could not proclaim them abroad. The global south would be confirmed in its suspicion that American appeals to do what is right are really just an exercise in hypocrisy. America would become just another big power.

As if Joe Biden isn't already enough evidence that America is dysfunctional... and as if the rest of the world doesn't already see America as a big ol' hypocrite

Dude I just think Europeans are wetting the bed about Ukraine. They're scared they might actually have to pay attention to their own defense for once.

Personally, I do think a second Trump presidency would be disastrous. But mainly because of Trump Derangement Syndrome... so many people are going to throw away all sense of logic and ethics in the name of defeating Trump, and it will let a lot of bad players get away with misbehavior in the name of "beating Trump" that normally wouldn't be tolerated.

Thank You for the link. Interesting, I will study this now. The point why I put this Trump article on our platform was, independent from ''The Donald'' to show the extent of propaganda that will be reaching new levels this year to our community. That's far beyond 'bias' - that's a declaration of a media war. But please, if You have good websides: post them here. I'm sure a lot of us are looking for good news sources besides 'X'. Greets T.
