[quote=@mdk] largely. It follows a pattern of talking point -->[b] meme --> conspiracy theory --> internet sleuthing --> meme --> piece of insignificant evidence marked THIS IS BIG --> meme -->[/b] conspiracy totally confirmed TBF though that's basically how CNN operates at this point, minus the entertainment value. [/quote] Dont see many memes coming out of CNN, they seem pretty milquetoast tbh. [quote=@mdk] T_D is a fantastic resource. You get to see (a) what the fanatics are on about, and (b) what the actual real life media actually really doesn't want you to see. The trick is being able to tell which is which -- but if you can do that, you should really browse T_D. If you can't tell the difference, regardless of what side you're on, you should probably stay away. But also (c) they got some pretty decent memes, albeit with a dash of persecution complex. So you can get sucked in easy if you let yourself. Curious -- besides anything I've linked you to, have you ever been to T_D? It's better if you haven't. If you haven't, what have you heard about it? I'm wondering if T_D's ideas about their own reputation hold any merit. [/quote] Ive been on there plenty of times, its entertaining for a short time in the same way watching crackheads beat each other up is entertaining. Ive occasionally seen a smart discussion on there, but far to often its big CAPS LOCK FUCKING LIBTARDS/CUCKSERVATIVES/PAID SHILLS DONT WANT AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. I get that its ironic on some level but its annoying. As far as the actual content, a lot of it is just recycles articles from brietbart and infowars and occasionally actual white nationalist sites such as American Renaissance, Alternative Hypothesis and Voat. If right wingers want to make the case that they are calm rational individuals who want to be able to respectfully discuss ideas with everyone and its the [b]Left[/b] who are over emotional echo chamber cry babys who cant handle facts, then The_Donald really isn't the best place to justify that characterization.
