News being evenhanded was a new thing for the world and that ended here with republicans trashing the fairness doctrine.
any political system where it's members are the only ones that can determine what truth is... is doomed to fail and is in fact a tyranny.

Judges and cops in this country also have too much power. I came to this realization by reading just exactly what's been going on with the judges in West Virginia.

You fight the misrepresentation of facts not by stopping those facts from coming into existence but by providing the correct facts in opposition.

If you are against Free speech it probably means you are afraid that you cannot defend your own opinions.

I reckon you can lay most of our troubles on judges. If they were not allowing other to "get away with it", our troubles would be a lot fewer. And then we have those judges who are outright criminal and very seldom faces any consequences for it.

Some half the voters, all republicans, disagree with your premise.   The trouble comes when only one side is presented to those people. When they seek out that ones side like a drug. 

Need 100 videos of trumps supporters denying facts to prove what I say?

Progressives think that men can identify as women and give birth. Apparently at least in this area they don't want to follow the science. 🤪

Especially on news media and social media I think your side is more than adequately represented. Your thousands of memes  attest to that.  Naturally it's concerning when the candidate of one's choice is trailing in the polls. However I think your side's decision to attack the PEOPLE on the other side in lieu of their POLITICS is what will eventually get you defeated if you are defeated.

I've seen damn few people out here wearing Trump hats or having Trump signs in their yards. I don't know what that means maybe nothing. I guess we will know in November.

However like I always do I will make damn sure to vote this November. Engaging in this democracy is the only way to keep it strong. Nothing is worse than apathy.

I'd really love to see Newsom running though. Newsom is the Democrat Mitt Romney.😛
