Douschebag Hall of Fame

Because you want to be uniformed?
Because I don't have time to go fact check everything. Not that I want to be uninformed but a lot (not all) of what the P&R forum has to offer is ultimately opinion. The thing about that is that no one is going to be changing opinions because of another. They might, but not at a high percentage.
Kind of like the whole attendance at inauguration. The pictures taken comparing the two were 6 hours apart (Reportedly, which again, never when to go find out for sure. Just heard the report) Yet, we had multiple people making a big fuss about it. Those same people are the ones that always jump on any sort of right wing news. I mean, whatever....I guess. I'd still go have a beer with most of you if it came down to it. I would actually love the opportunity to.

Two of the people I disagree with most on the political side of things here on the board I had a heck of a time with at Brewski's in Lincoln. I respect them and disagree with them. I have no ill wishes toward them and generally like hearing/seeing what their up to.

The best thing about football is that it unifies those that split on politics.

I Understand. Most weeks I don't have a lot of time to read things in detail, and somethings you have to take at face value, but always consider the source.
The only people who won't be changing opinions are those who are too stubborn to want to change. Plenty of people in there, including myself, have come away with new views and opinions based on things discussed in P&R. Hell, a couple staunch conservatives think Obama wasn't that bad of a President afterall now. I understand why increasing taxes on the upper middle class buisness owners aren't a great idea now. There's plenty to learn if you're willing and want to challenge yourself. I'd encourage you to give it a try. Yes it can be extremely frustrating, but worth it I think.

The problem is what you make time for. You clearly make time for propaganda, since you're repeating a lie that the photos were taken six hours apart, but you claim to not have time to check facts.

People are making just about the same "fuss" about the low turnout as Trump made boasting about how huge the turnout would be. The difference is what you have a problem with. Rather than decrying Trump's egotistical (and wrong) boast, you're decrying those of us who showed he was, once again, acting like a foolish blowhard.

Checking facts takes less than 30 seconds, on average. Pretending it's difficult is a tacit admission that you'd rather listen to lies that fit your preconceived notions than learn the truth.

Don't b!^@h at people who want to promote truth. Learn to do it yourself and be a better you.

I didn't have a problem with you post until you told me what to do.

The problem with "fact checking" is that the internet has made it incredibly easy to find facts that support both sides of a debate. It's fact checking "fact checks" that is actually difficult and not usually worth the effort.
This is a lie you've been told by people who don't want you to check facts. It isn't difficult at all. Reputable sources are easy to find.

Theres really very few reputable sources around any more. Every one has their own bias and leans. Unreadable and unwatchable stuff.

If you choose to believe every piece of biased information presented to you, I'm sure it is.

As my grandpa used to say, "Right's right and wrong's a shitass."

Claiming there are no truths is a copout. You choose to be uninformed and pretend "we just can't ever know the truth because everyone has a different opinion," fine. But don't pretend a fact isn't a fact.
