The way you're framing it seems disingenuous. You act like only people on the right lie and spread misinformation (and they do!). It feels like you're making a childish jab at the right because you don't like them.
Left-wing people and right-wing people both lie to you plenty, because political leanings have nothing to do with it.
I'm not claiming the piece itself is truthful, but you've got your head deep in the sand if you think the right wing is the only group lying to you, while the left & everyone else is truthful.
You're acting like I'm not talking about QAnon or MAGA types for some reason. Why?
I'm not saying to dismiss anyone just because you politically disagree with them. I'm saying don't trust a Nazi when he gives his opinion on Jews.
I'm not saying only one side lies. I'm saying there's a political contingent that only operates on lies, and this guy is with them.
Stop trying to reduce the situation to talk about someone else. This is a QAnon type author writing falsities based on falsely interpreted data, not Noam Chomsky waffling on if something is a crime or not.
Why are you trying to make far right seem better than they really are? Why are you igoring exactly the kind of person I'm referring to in order to dilute the situation and suggest "But pretend like they just have some different ideas" as if they're not the same kinds of people calling LGBT people child predators now.
This isn't me advocating dismissing anyone you merely politically disagree with. This is me saying don't trust a Nazi when he talks about Jews.
It's not a theory or an idea that most of their arguments are based in lies. That's par for the course. Their entire MO is denying truth and fact, something which doesn't exist in even the moderate right wing.
It is a lie to suggest that anyone else lies as much and as inherently as the far right in recent years.
The only thing disingenuous here is your "both sides" bullshit when you're suggesting a QAnon type should be given the same amount of credence as anyone else.
