fair.

Skepticism is healthy in this day and age, but that site is also biased btw. Even the founder says their methodology isn’t unbiased.

When determining bias, there isn’t any true scientific formula that is 100% objective. There are objective measures that can be calculated, but ultimately there will be some subjective judgment to determine these. We have put up a scale with a yellow dot on each page that shows the degree of bias for each source. Each page also has a “detailed report” section that gives some details about the source and explains their bias.

When calculating bias, we are looking at political bias, how factual the information is, and links to credible, verifiable sources. Therefore, the yellow dot may indicate political bias or how factual a source is, or in many cases, both. It is important to note that our bias scale is based on the USA political scale, which may differ from other countries. For example, the Democratic Party of the USA is considered centrist or even right-center in many countries worldwide; however, in the USA, they are considered Left-Center. Please keep this in mind if our ratings seem off in your native country. (08/08/2022)

It’s a site run by one guy and 3 volunteers. Not really the greatest source.

The top three are also nations where toilet paper is not available and you have to use your hands to wipe.

Where in the world are you getting this from?

They have Toilet paper, They also have Bidets.

In Diablo 3, I always saved the NPCs in Act 2 while doing bounties, even though there was no incentive to do so. Dunno if it counts as feeling good, but could never bring myself to ignore their cries.

Ah yes, the typical two-sideism crap.

Well if Aljazeera is the problem in your eyes, do you also think Ynet which reported it in the first place and shows pictures (which is what Aljazeera based their report on had you bothered to read the article), is also biased?

After 9/11, USA went into a bloodlust, invading Afghanistan because they (Taliban) wanted proof that Osama bin Laden was involved with the terrorist attack first. bin Laden fled to Pakistan, but the USA didn’t invade them, nor threatened to. Instead, USA just kept their boots on foreign soil because, hey, free real state and cheap poppy, amirite?

Just to add to your point.

From way before 9-11

Before the Invasion

After the invasion.

They’re mostly a bunch of neo-colonists that believe in western exceptionalism and won’t spend any time learning about the country the west occupied for over 20 years, let alone the complicated dynamics of the country.

I mean legit half the comments are variants of “We need to civilize the savages”.

Reminds me of all the crocodile tears against leaving Afghanistan in the first place “Think of the women!” they cried, well what happened when the country was dealing with a famine (which of course impacted millions of Afghani women) and the US stole half of Afghani assets at a time they desperately needed it? crickets.

Propaganda is a hell of a drug.

Remember when the Afghan people had a phenomenally well equipped and well trained army, and then they just gave up inside a week because things were “hard”?

You didn’t read the Afghanistan Papers did you?

That site didn’t give much info.

I’m guessing you only looked at the summary then.

It says they are hard working people who are underexposed to political info and don’t feel they can decide.

That’s not what it said.

Besides that making them fucking morons (sorry), that still doesn’t excuse their inaction.

There’s plenty of data there that explains their inaction. Your refusal to read it doesn’t make you right.

It all comes down to giving people a reason they can understand to take the time to vote.

Again, asking an hourly wage worker that can barely make ends meet already to travel/transit and then wait 9+ hours in line to vote is completely unrealistic and not something they should be blamed for.

But hey, like the other guy, keep calling them fucking morons, I’m sure it’ll work out great. /s

Lazy idiots like you rather come up with excuses than actually go do what you should be doing. You’re the typical “lazy American” stereotype that fascists count on to get into power. Congrats asswipe.

So I guess your voter outreach is nil then.

Keep it up, I’m sure it’ll work out great for you and the causes you champion.

People like that person would rather hate and feel morally superior than spend 5 minutes understanding the reasons.

Instead of just flat out hating on them and calling them lazy, maybe do some research into why there are so many non-voters.

And yes, suppression IS a big enough reason to. Who the fuck on an hourly wage has the luxury of driving/transiting to a distant poll station and wait in line for 9+ hours to vote?

But hey, if it makes you feel better to dunk on them as “Lazy”, keep at it, that’s sure to convince them /s

Edit: Forgot to mention that you assume all these non-voters would vote for your party. Based on research, a very sizable portion would not.

but asking us to pat some dim motherfuckers on the back because they couldn’t be fucked to fight fascism themselves and wanted us to do it at the ballot box is some straight bullshit.

Not only do that, but they actively BOOST fascism. They keep using the pied piper strategy over and over again. If they’re that bad (and I’m not denying that they are), why in the world do they keep signal boosting those fucks?

Cause it makes for an easy election win cause they don’t have to promise anything, just point to the contrast. I.E. they keep risking the fate of the entire world to win elections in a way that doesn’t affect their corporate donors.

Just insane.

did nothing besides force people to pay for private insurance that covers nothing.

Which also as a result gave insurance companies even more money to use to fight against any reform to healthcare.

They use our own money against us, and it’s insane we keep letting them, but rock and hard place.

I’m still uninsured, nothing has changed for me since the ACA. Here’s the thing – I’m not interested in “incremental generational change”, because I need healthcare myself in my lifetime. And I’m especially not interested in hearing that rhetoric from politicians who get a supermajority and do nothing with it.

I’ve lost good friends to healthcare costs. Incremental change doesn’t mean shit to me anymore. They’re dead, they’re not coming back.

Bull. Shit.
