    Lol!

    This fantasy you people have is nothing but sociopathy.

    What “rich” are you trying to kill and eat? Just, anyone that you have judged to have more than you have? It’s not like you will be able to get to the people at the very top. And what, you just murder those that you have labeled “rich” along the way?

    My brother makes more than I do. MUCH MORE. I would never want to see him and his family murdered by douche bags out of jealousy for the things he has been able to work hard to achieve. And he has worked hard all of his life to make it to where he is now!

    Do you guys have some sort of test to see who should and shouldn’t be murdered just because they have more than you do?

    You guys are fucking sick in the head!

    My MIL is this kind of extrovert. She assumes that if someone isn’t constantly talking to her that they hate her.

    Look lady: I love your daughter to death! I love you to death! I DON’T HAVE ANY NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN MY LIFE!! And you KNOW that!! Trust me, when I do, I WILL LET YOU KNOW!! In the meantime, business as usual and I don’t have any opinions on anything outside of my purview!

    I swear, if ever she was forced to sit in front of a group of people in silence, her head might explode.

    I find it important to call out any media bias no matter how “tepid” you may find it.

    It’s the deluge of “tepid” examples of bias that makes us complacent when what you might consider “real bias” comes up and goes unnoticed and/or unquestioned.

    To all of the “neutral” folks:

    Wouldn’t “neutral” mean you could swap headlines and photos and still have the same emotional response (because that is the aim of propaganda, to illicit an emotional response)?

    I don’t think this would garner the same response if it was switched.

    It is subtle propaganda (apparently), but biased propaganda none the less.

    Not necessarily. One snip gives an example of a positive quality of the person in question paired with a positive leaning photo. The other gives no such example of quality (and in fact uses authoritarian language as a way of swaying opinion) paired with a photo doctored to (at least in my mind) resemble historically negative figureheads.

    This is a form of bias and propaganda.
