>President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday refused to take a question from a CNN reporter during his press conference, berating the network for “fake news.”

>"Your organization is terrible," Trump told CNN’s Jim Acosta when he tried to ask a question.

>"You're attacking us, can you give us a question?” Acosta replied.

>"Don't be rude. No, I'm not going to give you a question. You are fake news," Trump responded, before calling on a reporter from Breitbart.

We have to stop this bullshit.
There is a difference between biased news and fake news.
CNN is NOT fake news. Biased? Quite possible, but then so is Fox et al. But it is definitely NOT FAKE NEWS.

That is not to say that Pissgate is not fake news. It could well be. That just means that CNN had a vetting failure (possibly influenced by a bias) but that does not make CNN fake news.

I am tired of the laziness in these debates.
>>
>>98952
I disagree about "the bullshit" part of your post. Trump&Co. perfectly well understands the difference between biased and fake, but is pretending otherwise as a rhetorical dodging device. It isn't laziness, it's intentional.

I doubt Pissgate is real but that doesn't mean the rest of the allegations aren't. CNN broke the story well before Buzzfeed introduced the pissing part. There are other things in the "dossier" besides the MI5 guy's claims.

>CNN's decision to publish carefully sourced reporting about the operations of our government is vastly different than Buzzfeed's decision to publish unsubstantiated memos. The Trump team knows this. They are using Buzzfeed's decision to deflect from CNN's reporting, which has been matched by the other major news organizations.

>We are fully confident in our reporting. It represents the core of what the First Amendment protects, informing the people of the inner workings of their government; in this case, briefing materials prepared for President Obama and President-elect Trump last week.

>We made it clear that we were not publishing any of the details of the 35-page document because we have not corroborated the report's allegations. Given that members of the Trump transition team have so vocally criticized our reporting, we encourage them to identify, specifically, what they believe to be inaccurate.

CNN never published the Pissgate documents because they said that it was unsubstantiated and ridiculous (basically, this shit didn't happen). Buzzfeed then covered pissgate and CNN got associated with it and blamed by Trump. In this case, CNN didnu nuffin.

It's amazing to me that Trump's detractors still do not understand that, no matter what dirt there is, a hell of a lot of Americans feel like in Trump we finally have a president on our side. He will make mistakes, he is imperfect, he is flawed and human just like the rest of us. He will fuck up. But at least he is on our side. He's not trying to give away our jobs and way of life to Mexico or China or the UN. Because of all that, I genuinely do not care whether he pissed on Obama's bed - hell I kind of hope he did.

>itt /news/, /pol/, and the MSM don't understand how Intelligence works.

It was in a 35 page raw intelligence document. It'll contain literally every type of claim like this that can't be disproved immediately. There's probably a document much like this one out there somewhere saying Clinton is a Saudi plant. It gets included because they don't like leaving this shit out and being told later they didn't account for it.

Raw intelligence is then processed, but the media didn't decide to go all ominous "OoooOoooh... Every single democrat has been mentioned in possible connection with subversive activities by the intelligence community..." because it would be trite.

They did it with Trump, because they are biased hacks. The raw intelligence document will pick up chatter and inconsistent claims. As Trump pointed out, there's basic factual inconsistencies with some of the claims, like his guy went to Prague. (Verifiably never happened.)

The reason for these inconsistencies is that the intelligence is unprocessed, and hasn't been checked. CNN and Buzzfeed willfully misrepresenting this is a huge problem. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_analysis
>>
>>99453

If these outlets were being honest and knew what the fuck they were talking about, they would instead focus on the following: Someone, for some reason, is creating false intelligence about Trump. That is genuinely suspicious in a lot of ways. "Cover-up worse than the crime" and all. If you tell a thousand lies about Trump, the truth gets buried in the public consciousness and the intelligence agencies have to wade through crap to find it.

Example. Al-Qaeda will spread rumors about their bases in lots of towns. If they don't do this, then there would be a disproportionate number of mentions about how it's where it actually is. Town A would get mentioned far more frequently. So they lie and keep telling people "Town B." "Town C." etc. Here, we see lies about how the Russians have a grip on Trump.

A similar dynamic could be at play.) A proper news report on this would be: It's either Russia engaging in muddying the waters, or libelous democrats/republicans in our own intelligence agencies and such deliberately trying to fuck with him, which is tantamount to treason (they would be conducting intelligence operations against the president elect, albeit, probably without official backing).

Other possibilities are that it's someone deliberately trolling the intelligence community (/pol/), it's a country with a vested interest in bringing down Trump (Mexico/China/Canada/EU etc.) or any number of other things.

Hence why it shouldn't be reported at all in my pinion. But they didn't do that, because even acknowledging that possibility wouldn't fit their narrative. It was hack journalism, so fuck them. If Trump IS a Russian asset, they just made it so much fucking harder for people to do their jobs or point out actual fucking issues.
>>
Why is Trump even bothering to have news conferences? I think at this point he's doing it just to deliberately fuck with the MSM, but I bet after a few rounds of them he'll just get annoyed and stop doing them. He'll give the occasional interview to orgs that support him and tell the rest to pound sand.

He talks directly to the people through tweets, and doesn't need the fourth estate.
>>
>>99472
Honestly, he should just sue or outlaw them for libel. Only new sources that are fair/factual should be able to disemenate information.

The only news sites worth anything are:

Jewish World Review
Instapundit
Hot Air
The Washington Examiner

That's completely absurd. The media should deliver information in an unbiased, professional setting. Aka neutrally. It is NOT to make biased attack articles that employ hate speech and personal attack in a weak attempt to brainwash their audience.

Lol you're pathetic. Freedom of press doesn't mean the press SHOULD present information that is colored and skewed by the reporter's own personal opinions and beliefs. Information should be presented without bias so the reader can draw their OWN conclusions.

Apparently you are too stupid to decide what your own brain thinks of something, as you need CNN to decide what you think of it. Hilarious but sad.

Something which Breitbart and the Drudge Report fail to do time and time again.

>What the fuck would a CNN toadie like you know about truth or America?
CNN is not a left-wing news organization. It was not created to spin stories, but report on them. You think that just because it employs left-wing pundits means that it's inherently bias -- it isn't. No more so than Fox news or NBC or Business Insider.
>>
>>99536
>Information should be presented without bias so the reader can draw their OWN conclusions.
That's not freedom of the press. You don't get to decide what freedom of the press is. If you don't like what a news organization is doing, get your news elsewhere.

>Apparently you are too stupid to decide what your own brain thinks of something, as you need CNN to decide what you think of it. Hilarious but sad.

You've been blue pilled for so long that the truth burns you.
>>
>>99533

Well, what does bias mean?

If it's intentionally omitting relevant detail or using poorly sourced facts in an argument, then that is inherently problematic, because the audience's ability to develop a perspective that is accurate to reality will be impaired when they have incomplete or wrong information.

But if detail is comprehensive and facts are well-sourced in the news, then including one's opinion, while not news and thus not necessary, isn't inherently wrong.

All of the relevant facts have to be provided to the electorate by the press; people can't arrive at those on their own. But it's to be expected that people can arrive at their own opinion after hearing others'.

The left never should have tried to lump real news in with fake news. Infowars, breitbart, rebelmedia, etc. they are not fake news and they are not the same as nbc.com.co.

>>
>>99591
>Infowars, breitbart, rebelmedia, etc. they are not fake news
I don't think anyone called these places fake news, but they definitely aren't real news. They're right-wing spin sources, and frequently report on fake news (and make up some of their own.)

>This is hilarious to me because their childish plans to smear alternative news sources as "fake news" has backfired and hopefully (it won't happen) they learn from their mistakes.

Just because right-wingers decided to co-opt the term "fake news" doesn't mean identifying fake news websites was unjustified. This isn't an "us vs. them" situation, we're one country undivided and indivisible, remember?
>>
>>99593
>I don't think anyone called these places fake news
Except they did, I picked them because they were the ones I remember being on the original "fake news" list. It was blatantly a strategy to smear websites that went against the narrative.

These journalists do not have your interests in mind, it will always be an us vs them until they finally get their heads out of their asses and act like decent journalists for once in their lives.

>Except they did, I picked them because they were the ones I remember being on the original "fake news" list.

You forgot to mention that the "fake news list" was published on the Daily Dot, not MSM even by a longshot.

Not only that, but Occupy Democrats was also on the list, so it wasn't only going after right-spinning alt news. It was going after news websites which provided clickbaity and misleading titles repeatedly, which Breitbart and Infowars both have done in the past and continue to do.

>These journalists do not have your interests in mind, it will always be an us vs them until they finally get their heads out of their asses and act like decent journalists for once in their lives.

Who are "these journalists"? I'm free to make my own decisions about which news I consume. If you call something fake news, you'd better back it up or it had better be well known. This is in comparison to the /pol/ version of fake news, which is anything that doesn't fit their narrative.

As much as the associated press claims to be a public service they are governed by economics just as every other business in america.

Honestly, I get some of your other points, but when you say shit like this it makes one question your grip on reality.

This is the news organization of repeated "technical difficulties," whenever negativity of Clinton started to get too rough.This is the network that blatantly lied through its teeth about Sylville Smith's sister's words to protect the image of victimhood. This is the organization that employed Donna Brazile when she decided to hand off questions to the Clinton campaign.

Well hold the fuck up. Is fake news designed to target off the wall unmitigated bullshit or is it fair game to throw it at something you deem employs "clickbaity," and "misleading," titles? Because that kind of shit happens everywhere.

The fact your shifting goalposts on this point makes it increasingly obvious the fake news stunt was never anything but an attempt to provide an obvious evil and subtly group ideological opposition in with it to strangle nascent alternative media outlets.

Did you read my post or did you just scan through it? Nowhere did I "shift goalposts". I said that the Daily Dot wasn't MSM, and then gave an explanation on why they, not the MSM, called Breitbart and Infowars fake news. If anything, you shifted them explicitly by accusing me of being untoward in this debate.

>The fact your shifting goalposts on this point makes it increasingly obvious the fake news stunt was never anything but an attempt to provide an obvious evil and subtly group ideological opposition in with it to strangle nascent alternative media outlets.
No it doesn't, because not only did I not do what you're accusing me of, but even if I did it wouldn't indicate a fucking thing. That's your assumption and not the truth of the matter.

One, which became a meme and wasn't proven to be intentional.

>his is the network that blatantly lied through its teeth about Sylville Smith's sister's words to protect the image of victimhood.
They only showed the first half of the sister's statement, which they later came out and apologized about. Considering tensions at the time it wasn't completely unwarranted but they could have been more forward.

>This is the organization that employed Donna Brazile when she decided to hand off questions to the Clinton campaign.
And ended up firing her later the moment they found out what she did.

By left-wing news organization, I mean a news organization specifically designed to give EVERYTHING a left wing spin like Occupy Democrats or Salon. CNN is not that, neither is NBC or Fox for the right wing side.

Having a free press is important. Protecting them is important. Calling them out on bullshit is also important but destroying them is counterintuitive and leads the way to authoritarianism. That's what we don't want.

It was a raw intel report. All sorts of crazy shit gets put into there. They probably have one on Clinton too that says shit like she's a Saudi plant who wants to sell out America. It's up to Langley to comb over and decide what to look into and what not.

So yeah, there's a lot of BS in it, because almost all of it is "so and so said this, might want to look into it" rather then anything hard.

Still, it was hugely irresponsible and unethical for Buzzfeed to run it since all of it is unverified, which is why they're rightfully getting shat on by everyone for it.

What we see with dossier-gate is a classic disinformation op long practiced by all kinds of spy agencies over the centuries. Spreading false rumors to discredit enemies goes back to ancient times. This has spy fingerprints all over it.

What is disturbing is that this one is being spread maliciously by the die hard anti Trump media troops in a last ditch effort to derail a fairly elected president and to make accusations which can’t really be fully proven false. Yes, the claims which have details can be refuted, but the broader attack is too vague fully “prove” false. Proving negatives is notoriously difficult, which is why disinformation is so popular with spy outfits. Many past wars were ignited by similar dirty tricks (Bay of Tonkin, Sinking of the Lusitania, Pearl Harbor, etc.)

JFK was screwing Marilyn Monroe and mafia don mistresses and the media at the time knew it! Did they publish any of that? Ditto for Bill Clinton and his womanizing. None of the “respectable” news outlets uttered a peep. Evidently. fears of “blackmail” have only recently become a valid worry.

The lame excuse that when people hear of vague rumors, that the press somehow has a “duty” to publish the details, so people can judge for themselves, is also false. So how many of the media titans smearing Trump by second hand scurrilous un-sourced gossip treated claims of Obama’s Kenyan birth the same way?

Answer, none. To the extent it finally was even reported outside of rightwing news outlets was to ridicule the accusations and promote stories of his Hawaiian birth certificate, etc. which were prompted by Obama’s own statements.

The MSM aren’t merely Useful Idiots here. They are complicit actors and active willing stooges to the Democrats who paid for the lies to be produced and doctored up to look authentic.

When this gambit fails, what next? Trump controlled secretly by aliens? Don’t rule it out. CNN and the NBC are always looking for clickbait. Feed the Hate, baby, Feed the Hate!

Like the Washington Post and New York Times, BuzzFeed and CNN are part of the deep state intelligence apparatus run by the liberal imperialists fanatics on behalf of a very desperate (and thus dangerous) financial oligarchy who see the growing economic, military, and intellectual robustness of Russia and China as a threat to their failing civilizations. The onrushing collapse of the Wall Street and European banking system increases the danger of some wild US/NATO military provocation, 9-11 type terrorist attack or assassination(s) such as the Karlov assassination in Turkey. (Trump would be an obvious target.) But to get back to the main point, BuzzFeed, Vox and of course CNN are nothing but propaganda tools of this global elite.

By your standard the press should remain silent in even reporting the mere fact that a former intelligence official provided some documents, even when that factually happened. Otherwise they are propaganda.

It is interesting folks are calling this liberal propaganda when it's done more to generate sympathy for Trump than anything. Trump called CNN fake news after CNN hadn't done anything but report that a leak happened and though they mentioned buzzfeed as the originator, they added a disclaimer that it was unverified.

CNN was blamed merely because the right assumed people would believe the contents of the documents. But whose fault is that really? CNN didn't try and convince anyone the leak contained true information.

Trump has prided himself in being outrageous. So people have a lower threshold when it comes to giving him benefit of doubt for being responsible for outrageous acts. If you play with fire, sometimes you will get burned.

If Trump wasn't reacting like a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar, if the people he surrounded himself with didn't have so many connections to Russia, if allied intelligence agencies weren't freaking out about him, and if he wasn't taking such a soft stance on Russia (and to preempt you, no, you can be critical of Putin/Russia without fucking going to war with them; stop trying to play it like the only two choices are between allying and nuclear war), I'd be more critical of Trump's detractors. This could all be coincidence, but in politics, usually all you have to go off of is circumstantial evidence, and there's a lot of shit swirling around the Trumpbowl.

No, they showed a tiny fraction of her statement and then blatantly lied about what her message was when anyone who had seen the statement could see reality was 180 degrees of what CNN was saying. They apologized because they got caught. They weren't worried about inflaming racial tension either, that's an obvious excuse to deflect from a complete fabrication they made when they could have canned the bit altogether if that was their true intention.

>And ended up firing her later...
I'm not entirely convinced that would have happened under normal circumstances. It seemed more like an attempt to kill another collusion scandal between the media and the Clinton campaign at a time when one after the other was seriously damaging her polling numbers.

Calling out their bullshit doesn't seem to do anything but make them more careful with it and inspire some rather amusing outlandish and intelligence-insulting excuses for said bullshit. CNN has been little more than an establishment cock-sucker since days of the first Gulf War, which makes it unsurprising to see it become such a shell of flimsy leftwing groupthink in the wake of Obama's administration.

Buzzfeed, Vox, Vice, and Gawker are clickbait. Their entire purpose and business model is to outrage liberals as much as possible for adsense money. That doesn't mean what they say isn't necessarily untrue, but they will take things out of context or tell half the story as long as it serves their partisan purposes. If it were just these sites serving news on the internet then the myth off the "liberal MSM" would be a reality. But in reality these sites have their partisan reciprocals: Breitbart, PJmedia, Infowaras.com and Therightstuff.biz, etc... These aren't the only sites doing this, nor are they limited to just liberals doing it. Rush Limbaugh fills the heads of just as many people as Rachel Maddow does. The "mainstream" media hasn't been liberal in at least 20 years; it's pretty much a 50/50 split between corporate right wing and corporate left wing.

Nobody in any intellectual circles takes Fox News seriously, especially after the latter Bush years.

The existence of popular conservative media doesn't mean the media isn't overwhelmingly liberal. Compare major media networks. ABC, NBC/MSNBC, CBS, CNN, BBC, CBC, Reuters, NPR, PBS... They're all overwhelmingly to the left. You have Fox up there with them and maybe Sky, but even then those are both the objects of ridicule for everyone under 35.

Then you have the legacy media like the Washington Post, New York Times, Chicago Tribune and the like. They're all overwhelmingly liberal as well.

The curricula that passes for journalistic ethics these days is rife with leftwing groupthink and bias. Journalists aren't trained to be such anymore, they're implicitly trained to be advocates and activists and the internet has allowed a pooling of bias between them to the point even layman are sensing narrative shifts and fabricated talking points these days.

And that's not even touching the fact there is a very real leftwing monopoly when it comes to entertainment media.

Why? It isn't the 20th century anymore and the number of people watching television is fewer and fewer every day, especially among millennials. The average age of the average viewer for these shows is 60+, and a decade and a half of marketing failures on behalf of BigMedia hasn't brought out the 18-40 year olds to sit passively and absorb information from a television. Each of the stations you mention have both conservative commentators and shows solely dedicated to conservatives, but young conservatives would rather be reading PJmedia or TheDailyCaller on their phone.
>legacy media
>overwhelmingly liberal
I'd disagree and so would the editor of The Wall Street Journal.
>The curricula that passes for journalistic ethics these days is rife with leftwing groupthink and bias.
Oh see now you've just gone off the rails. You'd have to be skewed so far to the right yourself to think of the media's idea of 'liberal' as anything but center-right. Unless you're on some smalltime website like DemocracyNow, the media is not progressive in the slightest and only follows a corporate agenda. Good luck seeing a serious, in-depth story critical of BigOil or The Pharmaceutical industry on the nightly news (not that there aren't stories to talk about if they only chose to cover them) when every commercial (and they are frequent) is for gasoline and penis pills. There are "liberal" journalists out there, just not as many as you'd think if you buy into the myth of 'the Big Evil Liberal MSM'. TYT are good liberal journalists. MSNBC is controlled opposition.
>>
>>100688
It should have been obvious with the use of curricula that I was talking about the way journalistic ethics are taught in universities these days. Where do you think all these fresh new graduates go? Why do you think so many of the clickbait pushers and bullshit fabricators have communication degrees and the like?

And I'm sorry, but if you consider TYT representative of good liberal journalism I'm afraid you're part of the problem. They're little different than the likes of Vox and Vice and they're always ready to twist a story to fit whatever set of identity politics they have that chased me as a center-left person far away from whatever they had to say. If MSNBC is controlled opposition (which I would buy) then so is TYT given they subscribe to the same destructive ideas that make sure the left will never be anything more than a group of neurotic morons arguing over who gets to talk first according to the stack rather than actual problem solving. That was the lesson of OWS and nobody on that side seemed to take it to heart.

Lol you are retarded, you think being left is being against BigOil and Pharmaceutical Industry and being right is about protecting evil-doers cause of greed, go look at Latin America jackass

Fucking everyone with money and authority protects the evil-doers, left and right. You can however determine how leftist/rightist one is by seeing how it addresses cultural issues, is it progressive or is it traditional?

By the way, conservative is anachronistic progressiveness, traditional view-points are atemporal and the same across countries, usually held by "disconnected" people; progressiveness (and conservativeness, which again, is anachronistic progresiveness) is about a cultural push to alter humanity in the image of its current's government cosmovision; right tries to get rid of degenerates, left tries to make everyone embrace their inner degenerate, both do it by extreme human engineering, cause both believe in the same zarathrustian bullsht.

Under that view a conservative is a progressive whose side lost last election and resists to the new cosmovisional change being imposed to him by the system. Be it 2 years ago arguing Obama was a Kenyan Communist, or be it today arguing that Trump is a Russian techno-shill.

I think it's more like Putin is undermining Trump with his support (the more Putin supports him, the more suspicious people around the world are of connections to Russia), but Trump being the way he is, doesn't see it and thinks that Putin is actually not that bad of a guy.

Putin doesn't really care if there's a righty or a lefty in office, he just cares that the US has less power/influence.

I'll wait until Trump does something substantial like lift sanctions on Russia with an EO before I'll say he's Putin's fuckboy though.

Stopped reading right there. They failed to check their sources on a story that could further their narrative. They ran with it for the message and for the views. They're a mainstream news source that has an average viewing audience of 960,000. They're a mainstream news source that has outsourced their fact-checking. You should be factual about what you're reporting and not resort to 1700's click-bait journalism strategies akin to the likes of fringe anti-corporate news. There is a certain level of respect that is held by the likes of CNN/FOX/NBC that is quickly diminishing due to people actually researching the facts or easily accessing the news they want to bubblize themselves with.

Don't be a cuck by talking about "amounts" of falsehood. If they're caught doing it once, then it is likely they've done it before and will do it again. The 4th Head of State(MSM) should have an obligation to be factual, constructive, and critical of all in power, not to be overtly biased and falsely equivical. This isn't fucking Breitbart or TYTs who work on shoestrings, donations, merch and subscriber models. This is the news company owned by the 3rd largest entertainment provider. You can't hold them to the same standard.

Something that is not reserved to CNN.
You need to look at what CNN said. It did not reveal the details of the report but pointed to its existence and what it said. How is that not checking their sources? The original report had been circulating for months. CNN reported on the attachment to the security briefing given to congress, Obama and Trump.
The briefing report existed - fact
It contained an attachment - fact
It contained unverified lewd claims - fact

>The 4th Head of State(MSM) should have an obligation to be factual, constructive, and critical of all in power, not to be overtly biased and falsely equivical
First of all, wtf is 4th Head of State. I can't find any reference to what this could be.
I'm sure you mean the 4th Estate.
Secondly, if you think that it should not be overtly biased then you have not been paying attention to the American media market. The legal and regulatory obligation to be unbiased was removed under Reagan. The US media market is now awash with bias. So you are expecting an ideal that can no longer be guaranteed nor should expected.

Of course, it is constructive. You're equivocating something to something else when they have obvious variables that set them apart; "I wiped my ass yesterday... speaking of colonoscopies". A failure to validify truths and to run 24/7 coverage on hearsay is a joke.

They're the only channel that did this. Fox and NBC both backed off until "we have the full story". CNN didn't; they ran a click-bait article.

CNN is owned by the 3rd largest media outlet. They consistently have just under a million viewers at any selected time. This isn't a fringe blogger purporting unsung claims that might get x amount of views then fall off the map.

>The briefing report existed - fact
No shit. Everyone has reported on it.
>It contained an attachment - fact
No shit. Everyone has reported on it.
>It contained unverified lewd claims - fact
Yes, so that means we get a ton of experts on the case to say how awful it is to have a President that could be accused of said claims? I watched Anderson360 before my flight home and they spun the FUCK out of this. It was a joke.

The 4th Head of State is the moniker of the Main Stream Media, as in the "free press" has a way to keep the legislative/executive/judicial branch in check. Yes, it is also called "4th Estate". Tomato, tomato.

I have watched the news since I was 17 years old. I've taken sociology/psychology/civics/AP Government/American Political Science in school. I've got about 10 years practice at ingesting information, looking for the bias, fact checking statements, looking at the Authors and where they come from, and also following the money.

Yes, but to completely ignore the biased shift from anything Obama has done to past Presidents is a joke. People in media power are apparently asleep at the wheel while we're still in Iraq/Afganistan, started 3 more wars, mass deportations, Romneycare sucking and dismantling Habeas Corpus. If the two Bush's or Clinton would've done any of this shit, the media would be all over it.

>>100155
The Russian economy is doing way better than the US economy by many different indicators. Corporate, private and federal debt e.g. Or reserves. Or fiscal gap. Andy many more...

As far as your team America fantasy is concerned:

Russia can lay waste to the US and vice versa, btw you do realize they have more nuclear firepower than the US does, not that it matters? You also realize Russia is the world leader in ballistic missile technology, and that the US missile shield is a giant waste of money, right? You also realize that just because the US spends 20 times what everyone else spends on their military doesn't mean jack shit if they spend that much because they drastically overpay for the same service/product due to corrupt defense contractors and massively inflated prices on their domestic market and what they mostly spend their budget on things that offer no combat value in conventional warfare anyway.

E.g. having more than a 100 bases all over the world is great to fight small groups of insurgents everywhere but that requires billions in upkeep alone for personnel and logistics and provide zero value in a war vs china/russia/india, because those that are in proximity will be gone in seconds and the others are just upkeep sinks.

Same with all the drones, they fight civilian targets in pakistan and jemen, against state of the art anti air they are useless. Same with hopelessly outdated stuff like carriers, against a nation like russia those are worthless missile targets. The US couldn't possibly project a force large enough to seriously attack russia or china and have even a remote chance of success. And vice versa of course.

The US couldn't even project enough force to defeat north korea and you think they pose a threat to Russia?
>>
>>101265
And if the situation escalates you better believe that Russiawon't be isolated, the second the threat of US intervention is gone because all their assets are tied up in a war, within the first week Iran+SA and others will overrun Israel, North Korea will overrun south Korea and the US forces stationed there, Russia will start west into Europe because the NATO forces there are pathetic compared to what Russia has at the ready and china will wipe away japan, Thailand and the likes. That's before the US has done jack shit, because they need weeks to even consolidate all their shit that's spread around the world to project enough force to whichever front they want to fight at so they don't get slaughtered in mere minutes.

The US massively overestimates their military might because they look at money spent, that doesn't mean shit. What matters is which assets you can effectively mobilize to where in what time-frame and which assets they will have to engage there.

All of this is ignoring nuclear war which will have no victor, despite the US misplaced trust in their laughably ineffective missile shield, just to appease $hilary Cunton's massive ego.

As far as a trade war goes, it might help to check how much debt the US has and who owns it. And I'm not just talking Federal debt, corporate and private as well. The only reason the dollar is worth anything at this point is because China, Russia, Iran, Saudi-Arabia and Europe say it is. The second that changes the US have less than shit and cannot buy anything on the world market, then I'd like to see how that trade war evolves, or how they fuel those carriers and pay their soldiers for that matter.

I'd almost like to see that play out just so they finally stfu with their delusions of grandeur. Then again I kinda like my life and I'm not too keen on nuclear winter.

i was being ironic

>>101350
im not that guy, and i don't know what that wiki link says, but the full spectrum from fascism to marxism are modernist ideologies, they merged eastern esoteric "tradition" imagery, with futurism, psychology, industrialism, and cinematographic techniques, they all based themselves in the superhuman concept and built from that, nazis/fascists had a jungian understanding of it, the marxists where more atheists doe they still used the concept of false consciousness to construct their cosmovision over, however when you look at the ruling parties of both of them, they approached their belief systems as merely instrumental, they didn't think they were real or else they wouldn't have dealt with information contradicting the regime's efficiency the way they did, they thought of them as interchangeable dialectic tools for control of the masses

thats why every single of those political systems had a shit relationship with churches and why they have a long list of priests killed, those are the true traditionalists and they were all against the shit that was happening cause they were well beyond surface memes like using a swastika
>>
>>101268
I find it funny that people fear Russian imperialism but not the imperialism of the US and EU which likes to eat up small nations and destroy their economies. Do you really think Russia has invaded anyone or is trying to take eastern Europe over? Russia was asked to come into those countries to help them out, they aren't the bad guys.

>>
>>101567

Trump will never secure an alliance with Russia. He has bipartisan resistance at home and the collective resistance of all our allies abroad. If that isn't enough for him to reconsider, there's also the economic ramifications of dropping multiple large trade partners (the EU is a substantially larger export market than Russia) for a single small one, and we all know that his base of support is built entirely on economics and not foreign policy. Beyond these factors, throw in the fact an alliance with Russia gives the US minimal benefits at best and actively hurts it at worst and there is literally no reason for an alliance.
>>
>>101577
Trump could and will secure an alliance with Russia. It's not about doing what is most effective or most profitable, but what Trump feels is right, and Trump sees something in Russia and nothing in NATO/Europe.
>>
>>100208
Spot on.
>>
>>101599

Except the president can't unilaterally create or modify treaties (congressional approval required) which is the sort of thing he would need for any formal alliance. Even his cabinet (as it is currently shaping up) won't support him on this so he would literally be alone and practically powerless (even executive orders still require your agencies to actually act on them and not ignore you). Trump would have to burn more political capital than Obama did on the ACA, and we all now how Obamacare totally annihilated Obama's momentum. Trump would practically be digging his own political grave.

If Trump wants to do anything outside of his first two years he won't peruse a stupid Russian alliance.

Messengers are messengers because they're just relaying a message, not because they support what the message says and work to enact its contents to fruition. The exact confusion is why your phrase exists, because it imparts a barrier of "this is just the info," between the information and someone saying it. Liberal cheerleaders on the other hand are very much in favor and supportive of the intelligence agencies and what they have to say about Russia.
>>
>>101965
Partisan tit for tat is stupid, and our winner take all system that disincentivizes compromise and good policy is killing America, but Trump is doing a very bad job in general of assuaging people's of these rumors and allowing these rumors to fester.

If Trump showed neutrality when speaking of Russia instead of praising it, if there wasn't so much that could be drawn from all the faint webs back to Russia. In an ideal world, this should be laughed back at much as the birther or "Bush did 9/11" conspiracies were, however, it is alarming to hear these rumors, then see Trump talking about how great Russia is or how NATO/Europe is obsolete.

Me myself, I am sitting on the fence, as I don't trust anyone. Trump, Russia, the CIA/NSA/FBI, and Congress all lie. As such, I'll give Trump the benefit of the doubt that I give to other Presidents and attribute his bad acts or missteps to incompetency or ignorance rather then malice. If he does validate these conspiracies with action, such as dropping Europe and privileging Russia, then I will be willing to believe almost everything the IC is saying on him.

So what if he's freindly with Russia. Let Russia do what it wants? Obumbo is one more adz anyways! If Trump calls the military home from Europen, then it can't possibly be that Trump is removing a THREAT to getting us into nuclear WWIII? If I was Trump I'd make a speech to the American people and with maps show them where Obama put troops, and telling them that we are NOT going to war with Russia and that the these troops are coming home. If they want to think that I'm in bed with Putin, so be it. Let Russia and Europe deal with their own problems. However, America will not go to war for no reason other than Obama put the troops there before he left office. If America wants to attack someone, it should be China, not start WWIII with Russians.

What in the world is wrong with these fools? Well, the war may still start even with Trump in office thanks to Congress. That way, Killary and Banito HUSSEIN Obumussolini could get the final laugh on Trump and the American people.

I'm fucking sick and tired of /r/the_donald rejects who got lost on their way to /pol/ and/or think this board is like the old /new/ board. Most of them live in a bubbleworld of unreality full of old campaign rhetoric and conspiracy theories.
>>
did anyone just see that WH press briefing? that was really strange
>>
>>102199
They've already labelled the media as their enemy. I think they realize that Trump does best when running against something else, and the MSM make a pretty good punching bags at this moment of time.

It was really surreal though. The briefing sounded angry, and petty, and really gave off an air (to me) of an administration that is insecure, unconfident, and combative.
>>
>>102168
Your mistake is assuming you're an adult just for having non-/pol/ opinions.

>>102174
No, /pol/tards are far from the only retards in these situations and you know that. Stop being so fucking partisan and disingenuous.

You're excusing lazy as fuck thinking that validates writing someone off just because they fall in line with your presumptions. Address the fucking arguments or fuck off. This impotent whining over people not sharing your opinion hailing from your boogeyman den of choice is fucking juvenile. As is this argumentative style where you quote every other line and turn the mere act of responding into a tedious chore.

You aren't helping by being a giant fucking caricature either. You give simple minded retards an excuse to double down on "muh tumblr," or "muh /pol/" whenever they want to ignore an argument they either don't like or simply can't refute.

>>102710
I don't care what you think it reinforces. Nobody promised you to take the high road. The people who are not /pol/ simply want /pol/ to go back to /pol/ and stay there, and the stupid back and forth is going to continue until that happens (which means forever).

>>102712
>>>/pol//
>>
>>102714
Stop calling everything you don't like /pol/ and I might calm down.
>>
>>102714
The problem is the people telling others to go back to /pol/ are often doing it simply because they've run into an argument they don't like. Telling someone who's never been there to go back simply for dissident thought is nothing but incredibly lazy nonsense.

You're overselling your ability to accurately label people and what's worse, you're using that "ability," to ignore arguments and build an echo chamber. They're not /pol/ just because you say they are. They're not /pol/ just for espousing a right of center opinion you're simply tired of hearing.

If you want to calm down, turn to drugs and alcohol. I'm not here to be your psychotherapist.

I could not disagree more. These pests must be told to Shoo! like any other. Nobody here is claiming to be better than /pol/ by doing so, nor is it going to stop because you felt like sitting on a high horse.

And what of the pests who substitute arguments with lazy links to other boards they wildly assume their opposition is a regular of? If your shooing has nothing to do with making this board better than /pol/ then I can only assume it's because you're striving for intellectual conformity.

Are you telling people to go to /pol/ because posters are shitposting with outlandish extremism or because you're simply tired of finding contrary thought? If your spiel isn't about making /news/ a better place free of /pol/tard nonsense, I can only assume it's the latter.

>>102724
Not interested. Echo chambers are cesspools by their very nature.

lol half the thread on /pol/ are "/pol/ BTFO"

how many of those do you see anywhere else

I guess that shows I don't go to /pol/ then and if half the threads there consist of that I don't think I'm going to change that.

Every response to a pol btfo thread is cuck faggot or gas the kike niggers.

And what happens when you get rid of the supposed "lugenpresse"? Do you think Trump is going to be entirely trustworthy?

Anon, mistakes like this have been made before. The free press keeps governments accountable... Don't listen to the propaganda.
>>
>>105074
>"""Mistakes"""

Don't make me laugh. Mainstream news organizations have become nothing more than propaganda factories, manufacturing fake outrage and controversy for the highest bidder. Various documents have proven collusion between large media organizations and political parties, and once you open that can of worms you can't just put the lid back on.

The free press isn't even close to free. No, they charge a hefty sum to push their propaganda. I don't trust everything the government tells me, but I sure as hell have no regard for what the public relations mercenaries known as the "free press" have to say. The beautiful thing about the digital age is that I can get my news straight from the source. I don't need Anderson Cooper or Bill O'Reilly putting their given lens over everything.

Like the editor and CEO of Breitbart being the president's closest adviser?

>The free press isn't even close to free. No, they charge a hefty sum to push their propaganda.

Proof? EVERYONE? ALL OF IT? Who is to say that the far right "alt-press" doesn't do the same thing? Do you even trust AP?

>The beautiful thing about the digital age is that I can get my news straight from the source.

And where do they get their source from?

>I don't need Anderson Cooper or Bill O'Reilly putting their given lens over everything.

You don't need Fox News or CNN. Call those organizations out. Don't throw out ALL OF IT because when it's all gone you'll be left with no option but to take what the powers that be say at face value. Maybe you'll like it when it's Trump, but what about the next guy?

Nah, he's right. Suck it up buttercup.

You need to learn to weed out, but they have no fucking filter (ironically) they speak about everything (and relate it to globalist aliens), but they speak about everything, the rest of the media purposedly not-publishes stuff
>>
>>104480
You don't get to decide who can or can't argue what if it's relevant to the topic at hand. That's very brash arrogance to suggest some arguments are verboten due to your own arbitrary reasons. Nothing I said was racist or had anything to do with race either. Are you sure you're not the one inserting irrelevant and tangential arguments into the equation here?

>>104486
Nobody is interested in deconstructing the media, because that approach is only taken to outlets and publications for which one disagrees with for the purpose of delegitimization.

See? This is what i mean, Infowars reports on absolutely everything, you need to be able to separate the information for the ideology Alex tries to inject into the news, but he reports on absolutely everything.

Infowars is accurate as fuck, i stand on my position, he has no filters.

What if you compare CNN to FOX. FOX news has over and over again been called out on their bs. Trump watches fox news and bases his world views around one shitty biased news channel. Remember before Obama when FOX got called on so many things people got fired from the network, the POTUS is using that very same channel. WAKE UP!
>>
>>107284
Fox business is better then fox news I like Lou Dobbs, Steve Varney, and Charles Payne.

>Does Alex Jones tell the truth 100% of the time?
Yes, he also has proof for all he says.
The matter of "is he correct 100% of the time" is another subject entirely.

The fact stands that he is so fucking horny for the truth that he isn't scared about looking like a complete idiot by reporting stuff that other conglomerate media outlets ridiculize.

>Sometimes he talks about reptilian aliums with david kike?
I heard that interview, at all points he kept saying "i believe the elite believe that, but i don't believe its real."

He also is the guy who traspassed into Bohemian Grove to film their rituals.

>Then he's a shill retard, thats how it works.
Nope, you have low IQ and are trying to frame the conversation like he was less of a journalist because he goes well beyond your reality tunnel.

You are a closeminded fuck who can't appreciate someno's work that is based in exposing facts about the world because you disagree with him on the conclusions about said facts.

Im not saying i believe him, i said since the beginning "if you know how to separate the facts from his ideology injecting, then he is accurate as fuck".

I do, which is why it's all the more disgusting that left-leaning media has fallen so far. I actually remember when Fox was the dunce on the block, now they look almost professional in comparison to CNN.
