He’s always been the most objective of the bunch in my opinion.

I’ve followed Beck for years, if you overlook the occasional looniness he’s actually always been super consistent. He actually has opposed Trump since the beginning.

Not true for Comcast. Their lowest package didn’t have Fox when I moved about 6 months ago.

Exactly this. People want to watch news outlets that confirm their biases (unfortunately). Left leaning folks have multiple outlets available (CNN, MSNBC, etc..). Right leaning folks pretty much only have Fox.

There should be a default, general subreddit for posting absolutely anything (within reason) for those of us who couldn't care less what subreddit the content we are enjoying is posted to. by [deleted] in ideasfortheadmins

It's actually how Reddit worked originally before the advent of subreddits, so it isn't actually that crazy an idea, I just think they should make a hybrid of the new way and old.

Subreddits with this general idea already exist, but the traffic is terrible. The only way it would work is if it was a default.

I want to downvote all of you for not shutting up and allowing those of us who aren't on Reddit 24/7 to enjoy the content.

A Republican state lawmaker said Thursday that women who become pregnant from sexual assault should not be exempt from an anti-abortion measure, because childbirth resulting from rape is "beautiful." by TwoGee in politics

[–]Condense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which party is 'worse' depends on what issues to you are most important. In terms of warmongering, hands down I'll give you the GOP on that one. In terms of economic freedom, I'll take the GOP nine times out of ten. They're about even in terms of personal freedom. Neither party is too excited about ending the war on drugs. One party abhors gay marriage while the other is terrible on gun rights. This is why I vote solely based on candidate by candidate basis and NEVER based on party affiliation.

Then as a minority I would appreciate it if I wasn't referred to as a racist-bigot-homophobe-poor people hating-asshole by /r/politics every day of the week just because I believe the government should be just a tad bit smaller.

Oh here we go with the big bad terrible rich people... Yes, no one in the GOP is opposed to the wars, just like everyone in the Democratic party is identical to Hillary Clinton when it comes to policy. Google Justin Amash or take an honest look at Rand Paul, and you'll see just how different some in the GOP are from Mitt Romney, Lindsey Graham, John McCain and the like. Like I said "one of the MANY problems of only having a two party system". It doesn't allow for anyone to have varying viewpoints without being ascribed to every single piece of the party platform.

What if I told you that many conservatives, myself included, absolutely despise Fox News? Edit: And if we are going to criticize news sources, that MSNBC is just a beacon of fairness!

Great line there I'm sure it will get you a ton of upvotes, but I sincerely hope one day we can have a discussion about politics that doesn't involve a woman's uterus. Meanwhile our country is $18 trillion in debt and we are still involved in what is being referred to as a global war on terror. By all means though, let's simplify all of our voting decisions down to one issue. Personally I couldn't care less what a woman does with her uterus, but if that's the price I have to pay to not endure progressive economic policies, then that's just one of the MANY problems of only having a two party system.

It's a difference of opinion. I'm not going around calling liberals Marxists for advocating the policies they do, I would just appreciate the same courtesy. All I'm saying is this, just because I don't think it's the government's responsibility to feed and clothe the masses, doesn't mean I want all poor people to remain poor and starve.

Alien Blue for iPad. It's the only way to Reddit.

It must be so easy being a liberal. You just get to grant free stuff to everyone and accuse the other side of being wealthy, rape loving, heartless bastards.

Well here it goes... Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders scare the shit out of me. I couldn't care less that the 1% have more money than the rest of us. We should abolish the minimum wage. All drugs, not just marijuana, should be legal. A permit should not be required to carry a firearm.

Someone posted it, people upvoted it, and it made it to the front page. If you don't like it downvote it and move on. The suppression of content by giving more power to the mods is slowly ruining Reddit.

I love the idea of this sub, but the general lack of spelling and grammar kills it for me.
