"We like to call it News commentary... independent of major corporate media."

Sure... and so does every other crackpot clickbait source.

I'm almost 100% convinced that these All-Trump-All-the-Time channels are actually funded by Trump supporters, even when they purport to be anti-Trump. You can practically smell the borsht on them.

"Occupy Democrats"

I believe this is what's officially called a Doomsday Clickbait Group. I see some of my relatives on social media regurgitating their stuff just as mindlessly as some of the MAGA people do with the stuff on their feeds.

"This is going to sound harsh but these people don't deserve to have children."

Do you feel the same way about people who have qualms about mutilating the -------- of newborns?

I'm sure there are people on both sides of the peanut allergy debate who have just as harsh opinons about whether babies should be given a dab of peanut butter to eat as soon as they can swallow it.

Maybe people might want to consider more nuanced opinions, but nah... this is the Retort.

"In the broader context, however, this is quite concerning. Decades of hard won and lifesaving medical interventions are being forgone because people watched a YouTube video recommended by their chiropractor and *boom* algorithm takes over and before you know it, Betty Sue the cashier at Walgreens is telling doctors she don't need to stinkin' vaccines or vitamin k shots for her new baby. That's what the Himalayan Rock Salt lamp and smoky quartz crystals are for!"

The funny thing is you think you're better than those people, going to the opposite extreme, being a pharma bitch, gaslighting people about their own experiences to various drugs that were forced on them.

'Soliman is an Egyptian national who federal authorities say was living in the U.S. illegally. Investigators say he planned the attack for a year and was driven by a desire "to kill all Zionist people."'

The POS could have committed the same crime while he was still legal before his work authorization expired a month earlier. If they had spent more time vetting people like this rather than aggressively going after every low hanging fruit to meet quantitative quotas, they might have prevented the attack.

Nothing can be done. Thoughts and prayers.

It seems this was from the same timeframe and same group of soldiers involved in the desecration of the other statue, and its just being reported on now.

People here apparently still get ------ thinking of underaged Kyle being violated by a pedophile on that night. I don't disagree that KR is a loser, but those who weep for pedos and literal lynch mobs are even bigger losers than he is.

People who attack Islam (or Israel) as inherently evil remind of the people who attack the USA and claim it's only defined by the worst things ever done it its name.

"Islam is just bastardized appropriations from other religions."

Aren't all modern religions?

'Its built to justify the sexual degeneracy its "prophet"
Once you understand this, the contradictions make a little more sense.'

Yet another gross polemic and oversimplification.

6-7!

Google AI often quotes directly from reddit and other social media posts, by the way. So you always have to look deeper and can't trust the first thing it gives you.

"AI Overview"

"YOU FOOL!" /GilbertGodfried

AI Overviews are often sloppy, especially when given a sloppy query. When I asked it specifically to fact check what you actually wrote here, it pointed out that the vast majority of "intersex" people are not born with abnormal genitalia, and certainly not with both a penis and vagina.

It would be better to own your goof now, rather than doubling down on it again.

"What will you call your next child when they are born with both a penis and a vagina?
Something just under 2 percent of people are... what will you do with them?"

Posts like this make me wonder if Corky is actually a right-winger doing a parody of a left-winger.

If not, you might want to ask Google to fact-check statements like that before you make a fool out of yourself.

Both penis and vagina: It is biologically impossible for a human to develop a complete, fully functional version of both.

Ambiguous or Mixed Genitalia: Roughly 0.02% to 0.05% of births (about 1 in 2,000 to 1 in 5,000) involve genitalia that is visibly atypical or mixed.

Broad "Intersex" Definition (1.7%): This figure includes individuals with internal chromosomal or hormonal variations who typically have standard external male or female anatomy. For example, about 88% of the people in this 1.7% group have Late Onset Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (LOCAH), which often doesn't show symptoms until puberty.

Strict "Intersex" Definition (0.018%): Some clinicians, such as Leonard Sax, argue for a narrower definition that only includes cases where chromosomal sex is inconsistent with physical anatomy or where the phenotype is not classifiable as male or female.

"It's about dealing with those who openly call for Israel's destruction."

You're oversimplifying things here just as much as Effete is. If you paint every group by the rhetoric of their most extremists, then every group on the planet is screwed.

'Read some history. The Crusades were aggressive wars of Conquest waged on Muslims by Christians to "Free" the "Holy Land" from "Infidels".'

Perhaps you should take your own advice and read up more on history, beyond the oversimplified version you're spouting here. The first Crusade was actually a defensive act in response to the invasion of the Seljuk Turks. The religious fervor and geopolitical motives were also a factor, especially in the later crusades, but it was no worse than the intercontinental expansions being done by Muslims at the time.

In fact, the aggression by Muslims and their cutting off land trade routes to Asia was directly responsible for causing Europeans to find other ways, resulting in them colonizing Africa and the Americas along the way.

He still comes across like another Beto O'Rourke. Maybe he'll rise above that, maybe he won't.

The article references his paranoia about being fired by Trump. Maybe this is him covering his ass so he has a witness to back up his side of the story to refute any allegations from other people in the Trump admin trying to rid of him?

"It wasn't experimental considering it went through trials.
The trials fully tested it to the extent every other vaccine would be tested with the exception of the longevity of the response (impractical given the situation)."

There's a difference between saying overreactions and missteps are understandable and inevitable in a situation like that, and outright justifying them. Your continual dismissal of any criticisms of how Covid was responded to often comes across as the latter.

The new vaccines were not tested for long term safety. Lots of corners were cut. But yet no one is supposed to question that even though Operation Warp Speed mostly happened under the first Trump admin?

From what I saw, elderly people were able to tolerate the side effects of the vaccine much better compared to people around my own age. Which begs the question whether it was necessary to provoke such a strong response in some people's bodies to the point where they couldn't work or drive or even walk sometimes. But I guess according to you no one can question that even five years later.

"Excellent use of taxpayer dollars."

Well, it gives Republicans something to bitch about and pretend it was the other party's fault. Same with all the passports that are going to have to be replaced, the damage to the WH, and all the other desecrations.

"My wife contracted Alpha-gal syndrome from a tick bite about 20 years ago."

Was she a Beta-gal before that?
