One has nothing to do with the other, but you misspelled the Democrat Party.

This is DARVO [0]. You're attempting to copy the fascism of the Republicans onto the Democrats. This might have worked better if it weren't for the Republicans' neglect over the past executive term; with hundreds of thousands of Americans dead or rioting because they're tired of starving and being shot, it is increasingly obvious that the Republicans are incapable of leading. Neoliberalism is terrible, yeah, but your…

This is projection. You're projecting about the other side committing DARVO.

Typical leftist.

You're cherry-picking a few specific examples on the Democratic side, and comparing it to a party that literally ran - and had elected - a QAnon senator [1]. This whataboutism and false equivalency is extremely toxic. Are dems perfect? Lord no. Does the MSM make mistakes? Absolutely. Is one side actively engaged in a war on truth? Yeah, kinda. > However I don't think mistrust in the MSM is "ideology" associated with…

> This whataboutism and false equivalency is extremely toxic. It's not whataboutism, I never excused Trump nor the Republicans. They should be called out on their bullshit. If anything, responding to a comment solely about things the media has done with Senate election results is whataboutism. False equivalency... Eh, maybe. The eye-for-an-eye tallying of sins never goes well and I'm not ready to try at the moment. B…

> You come just short of saying MSM == Democrats, other news == Republicans.

Not really, that’s using the rights definition of it, not my opinion.

From their perspective, there’s the “MSM” (everyone you’ve ever heard of except...) Fox, Breitbart and Sinclair.

Fox got hucked into the MSM pile, so there’s everyone you’ve ever heard of (“MSM”), Breitbart and Sinclair.

I strongly suggest you read the Mueller report. It's not what you've been led to believe. "Mueller and his team of prosecutors have now indicted 34 individuals and three Russian businesses on charges ranging from computer hacking to conspiracy and financial crimes." "Those indictments have led to seven guilty pleas and five people sentenced to prison." If this doesn't line up with what you've heard, don't believe me,…

If any group of politicians had been investigated to the depth of the Mueller investigation, the same amount of criminal behavior would have been found. They're all criminals, you have to be to compete.

That opinion even if true changes nothing about the OP or my reply.

Only one party ran and had elected a QAnon senator. That's kind of a QED.

Only one party elected someone who thought putting too many soldiers in Guam would tip the island over.
