How long has Reddit been Liberal Propaganda ?
 

I had always assumed Reddit was a middle rider/neutral ground where folks were pretty savvy about MSM propaganda.

But damn how it's taken a turn the past year... Constant front page ploys.

I'm guessing ever since the Fake News expose that Share Blue and Media Matters have thrown millions into "online news/information" communities? A few Reddit threads (even liberal ones) seem to confirm it.

Fuck.. Since when did liberals become the establishment? Weird things happening these days.. Thank Christ for the silent majority. Never seen liberals so pro corporate America in my life.

Bring back the open minded truth seeking hippies who were breaking down the doors of perception! Or perhaps it's just the paid shills giving off a false impression..

Did you welch on bets there too?

I don't think Reddit is necessarily pro-democrat. I think most of their users are simply anti-trump regardless of their political affiliations. Do keep in mind that Reddit is a global community and American politics is a huge topic of debate. Lots of people from outside the country are voicing their opinion.

Appreciate the non "paid shill" and earnest reply. Truly :2 cents:

But even old liberal friends of mine who've been posting their for years have started to notice the front page turning into an extension of MSM propaganda bullshit, and they don't like it either. Which begs the question, who is really upholding this trend?

We know there has been millions poured into shilling by Share Blue. Media Matters. and the Clinton thing.. I guess we would expect to see it somewhere.

Not sure why it has to be a political thing for people to realize the establishment is no friend.. But it's gotten so weird in that these new liberals are seemingly* all about it.

I just worry classic liberals will start eating it up out of sheer repition.

Diomed said he wouldn't logon to GFY in 2019 because of all the political threads.

Diomed just made yet another political thread in 2019.

Ooh.. Is Bladey feeling threatened again?

I would be too - https://gfy.com/search.php?do=findus...&starteronly=1

Job is on the line son.. Now do us all a favor and throw some magic arrows in your "post edit" and tell everyone how unstable they are.

Gonna make you earn that money Bladey! PACK A LUNCH CUNT:thumbsup

What you're describing based on your friends is whats called anecdotal evidence. Just because you and your friends view things a certain way (an echo chamber) it doesn't mean its representative of whats actually going on.

I think what this presidency has done is bring to light a lot of fundamental issues with the current American political system. Even though its been labeled a "Republicans vs Liberals" battle, I think this is more of an issue with a clash of ideologies regardless of political affiliation. Lots of unspoken ethical rules are being broken in this presidency and this is waking up a lot of people to the realization that certain blatant abuses of power CAN happen and this needs to be addressed.

Also, if you think that liberals are eating up propaganda, you should really step back and look at yourself long and hard in the mirror because you are victim of exactly the same thing. Both parties are being fed propaganda. There's no point in squabbling between which party is right and which is wrong here because, if you look at the current state of affairs: everybody is losing.

Equalizing the blight of far right propaganda with factual information is what the far right wants.

Trump calls the Mainstream Media fake news. Propoganda. He's not calling far left news propaganda. He's labeling the legitimate media as being propaganda.

Anything you don't like is "liberal propaganda".. Just like all you right wing nuts call colleges liberal training grounds or whatever it is you call them. It gives you excuse to feel good about remaining uneducated..

i think on 10 right wing propaganda fake sources you will find 1 left wing.

the reason why those right wing fake sources are the majority is that right wing people are easier to brainwash and they believe every fucking bullshit.
on top of that older, conservatives are sharing proven fake news 7 times more than younger lefties.

so the answer is easy - you are the easy victims and this is why trump loves you

some say he is the beginning of something new.

How long has Reddit been Liberal Propaganda?
Probably about as long as you been sucking dicks for meth!

Reddit is also home to two of the biggest pro-trump/conservative groups online. /r/the_donald has nearly 700K subscribers and /r/conservative has around 150K subscribers.

Yes, there are more liberals, no question, but you can just unsubscribe to those forums and you will rarely ever see things from them.

Reddit is whatever you want it to be (within reason). :2 cents:

Remember, alt-right hate trolls think everything normal is "liberal" or "far left"

Exactly. You may still get a thread or two here or there you don't want, but for the most part you can set things up so you don't see crap you don't want.

Quite a long time now, it was discovered they were being controlled from a US Airforce base

Christ I can stop laughing..

Look at Bladeys turning up the volume. Haha, this is gonna be a fun year :thumbsup

For the record, Reddit is comprised of 65-70% white tech savvy males. If you really dont think "paid for" propaganda is taking that place over your an idiot :2 cents:

Not really. You subscribe to r/news, r/worldnews, r/science, r/todayilearned r/politics etc. it's a circle jerk of Trump haters jacking each other off and banning anyone that doesn't play in that narrative.

reddit is all legit news. How all americans feel is Reddit main page. You need to join the crowd.

This is exactly it- the Democrats control social media, big tech, the media, Hollywood, most colleges, etc etc. The conservatives are the new counter-culture. Generation Z will smack the libs down soon enough :1orglaugh

is the Z for Zoo or for Zombie ???

It's for zeeing through the bullshit and demanding authenticity.

Link for proof?

Except for Hollywood, you just listed institutions where people have high degrees of education. Do you see a correlation?

Maybe the Democrats aren't controlling them. Maybe people who have informed themselves & developed critical thinking naturally tend to gravitate towards NOT agreeing with this presidency.

Notice how I don't say they become democrats? That's because if a democratic president were pulling the same stunts, those same people would turn against him as well. People with education understand that politics isn't a sport's match. You don't root for a single team to win. You stand up for whats best for everyone and fight those that try to abuse power.

Well said :thumbsup

Yes that's it, the "progressives" are just more educated and smarter than all those dumb people who don't live in L.A. or NYC (Hillary's popular vote base).

You seem to be suggesting that Trump is abusing his power and not doing what's best for everyone. What has he done that's so bad? Enforcing current laws? Pushing for the border fence that ALL the top Democrats voted for in the past? Reducing the huge cost of illegal immigration is what's best for everyone.

He's done nothing wrong, despite what the hate-Trump media tells you.

:rasta

This is the only 100% correct statement you made. The rest is only partially true and has been argued ad nauseum. However, I feel that re-explaining this would be a waste of time as you've clearly demonstrated time and time again that you do not grasp the nuances of what Trump says he is doing and what is actually going on.

Here, read this: https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Du...3Kruger_effect

It will help explain why everything makes sense in your head and why everyone you're arguing with feels dumb.

Trump supporters are very basic when you break them down:

Not white bad

Not man inferior

Gay bad

Wall good

Gun good

Foreigners suspicious

Not christian bad

I'm a victim

Hurt others = me strong

No feels

Not like me = far left liberal enemy who likes all "bad" want no wall & take my gun

give me

give me

give me

take

take

take

lie

Me victim

In other words the opposite of you...

Sorry, but all those "intellectuals" in LA and NYC are clueless about real Americans. So out of touch that they were stunned when Hillary lost. Rather than figure out why the people rejected her, the move was to attack Trump in the media and smear his supporters as racist hillbillies. Sure... if you're gullible and believe fake news. None of you can state what he's done that's so bad- you're just blinded by hatred.

:pimp

Its easy to say that none of us have stated what he's done bad when every argument given to you is automatically labeled as fake news or you try to debunk with some obscure, very obviously biased source.

Most Americans are realizing just how hollow their "institutions" are :2 cents:

Nigga please...

dunning-kruger hits the nail on the head.
as long as the spectators think that they all play better than those on the field, it can still be endured. it will be bad if such people vote and can damage the well-being of the world. here the dunning-kruger-effect is called populism.

I don't know if it's just missing IQ or simple laziness to deal with the complexity of things and have to admit in the end that you simply can't know everything because your lifetime is too short.

Then one idiot gives the other idiot a simple answer to highly complicated questions and these people think they have more answers than others.
At a certain point, this assumption of knowing everything runs in arrogance, and even if that person should realize that everything he knows is wrong or incomplete, there is no way back, because that way would lead back until the cradle.

So I don't see this as an "effect" but as an incurable and highly contagious disease because people are too easily willing to take on ready-made answers - because it is almost impossible to ever guess that they are wrong and because too many other idiots claim the same thing.

I fundamentally believe that most people are about the same average intelligence. I define intelligence as the capacity to learn new things. Yes there are outliers (mental handicaps and savant geniuses), but the Bell curve remains the same in regards to intelligence.

Where we all differ is the tools we have at our disposal to learn more and develop. People from poorer or religious parts of the country don't have access to the same amount of knowledge or tools to learn and grow as their counterparts.

Add to that the completely different political bubbles people are raised in. Let's be honest. Those that have only Fox news or similar media outlets in their area exist in a completely different universe than the rest of the planet. That's not an opinion, that is fact. I understand why each party thinks the other party is compromised of weird thinking aliens. Their ideologies and upbringing are confusing to foreign and confusing to each other. This breeds fear.

So, take a lack of tools to understand whats going on and a complete lack of exposure to certain information and you have a recipe for an extreme right wing (or left wing) person.

So here comes this person, armed with inadequate educational tools and a one sided view of the world and they think they understand everything that is going around them. The truth is they simply don't have the skills to comprehend the bigger picture.

This doesn't make them any less intelligent than anyone else. Anyone can keep learning if they keep a 100% objective and open mind towards the subject.

Unfortunately, poor performers—and we are all poor performers at some things—fail to see the flaws in their thinking or the answers they lack. When we think we are at our best is sometimes when we are at our objective worst.

more political bs from diomed. Cries about shills, but does it for free.

More political agenda from diomed. Surprise.
