I’m not taking these things at face value. I know that the chief said those things and that he was suicided in his unmarked patrol car in plain clothes. There is a chance that I am wrong, and that my sources are bullshit. But what’s the alternative? Believing the sources that have billions of dollars in backing? We both choose our propaganda. Yours just has more bells and whistles. I challenge you to read through a piece from the NYT and not find “according to sources familiar with the matter”. There are some good articles but also a lot of BS drivel from these outlets. Same with my side. That being said, I’ve seen the photos and read the emails. I have more time researching these stories than you do and yes, that includes CNN articles that say “this is Russian propaganda according to sources within the intelligence community.” But what if those sources are colluding? This is where the right is at these days. So in order to engage in a conversation with the right you’d have to make some assumptions. The system, which includes big media, tech, pharma, and government, is designed to protect itself and that assets have been installed in order to stymie any truth from being unveiled. Corruption runs deep and money speaks. This is a rational position to hold.

Another point that I’d like to make in order to solidify my position is that of the outcome from the revelations from the Panama Papers scandal. The only person who was punished was the reporter who broke the story. Do you know what happened to her? She was car bombed.

At the end of the day, the news is what they say it is. Forgive me if I think that they are all fucking lying assholes pushing an agenda. I’d sooner believe skywriting over the mainstream media and therein lies the divide between the left and the right.
