Spreading disinformation is always served with a sprinkling of truth. It is so effective, that it is used in spy vs. spy psyops, and even those trained in basilisk skepticism (as opposed to idiotic altruism) can't always tell the difference to sort out what is real from what isn't.

Best not to swallow the sprinkling of truth as bait for the poisoned bolus.

You still looking at newspapers to give you unbiased information? just shows how easy it is for you to quote ton of main stream media (left media), but only one on the right which is FoxNews! See for yourself, left is main stream, it owns most media, all social media, left owns this country. What does right have? Oh yeah Tucker Carlson who speaks for America, and a few bloggers who constantly find their content disappear from social media once left finds them and targets them.

Left tells us they are for women, but ignore and bash millions of women who are pro life. Left tells us they are for blacks, but ignore all blacks who are conservative or republican.

Welcome to dictatorship and censorship, left is winning, and left might win. But with that win, you as an American won't win, you'll lose just like the rest of us. Because eventually just like nazi's they'll "come for you too - and there will be no one left to speak for you".

Another way to get news is to simply look for opinions that do not match, and compare. Have to think for yourself as always. Media isn't anyones friend, they are manipulative mother fuckers.

FACEBOOK?

They censor. Fuckerberg works for the government. Think that little fucking thief is a genius? Don't you wonder why he's able to steal without consequences?

The point of Facebook is to gather as much information as possible on the public, and to censor what they are able to see. Try to find a Russian on Facebook to talk with. Try to find a Ukrainian. A Syrian, a Libyan.

Tim Aurora says

Really. You guys want to put up weird sites and Federalist and expect us to take that as news

The reason the Internet was created was so you could talk to ANYBODY on the planet, for nearly 0 cost.

The reason Facebook, Google, Youtube, and Twitter were created was to keep you in an unreality bubble - in a propaganda bubble.

You can't take anything as "news". Anything made as a claim is just a claim. For example when you read "The Mueller Report said X", if the author didn't give a page number, and a quote - ignore it. If you cannot comment on the article to the author - it's a lie. If there is a supposed quote and page number, check to see it is actually there, and it wasn't taken out of context.

There is literally a handful of journalists in the entire Western media. Almost all of them lie, nearly none of them provide references. People are still largely brainwashed and want to believe somebody else - the truth is, you can't trust anybody, and you shouldn't when you have the most powerful research interface that's ever existed in all of history in front of you now. What took me days of research in a library in 1990, takes me minutes today.

I thought people would know this back in 2000 - people are just becoming aware of it now. Taking fucking long enough.

There's no such thing as Fake News, there's only the Truth and Lies.

If the so called Alt-Right news sites were full of Lies, then the Liberals could easily call them out. But they can't so they use words of pre-qualify the potential reader or listener to self censor from reading.

The Federalist were one of the few sites that got the whole Russian Collusion B.S. correct early on.

Whereas the NYTimes got a Pulitzer (and plans on keeping it) for reporting all the Fake News claiming Trump was a Russian agent.

Why not? Judith Miller won the Pulitzer Prize for taking everything Ahmed Chalabi told her at face value and reporting it as fact in the NY Times. The Bush administration would then cite the NY Times to bolster the case for the Iraq war.

The Pulitzer Prize is given out to best propagandist - not best journalist. It's been like that for decades.

In fact, prizes that are supposed to be well respected are given for the opposite of what they claim to be. Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize - then spent 8 years bombing 7 nations. George Tenet got the "Presidential Medal of Freedom" after he resigned from the CIA as head director, and took all the blame for the "mistaken intelligence" that brought the US into war over a non existent weapons of mass destruction program.

And just FYI you can’t be arrested for an infraction, which is what parking the wrong way is. Even if the officers are making it all up, the arrest is not for parking the wrong way.

https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/worlds-oceans-are-losing-oxygen-at-a-dangerous-unprecedented-rate-as-temperatures-rise/#app

I want to demonstrate something to you - I followed that link. The first link it refers to is:

https://portals.iucn.org/library/node/48892

The first statement in that is:

The ocean represents 97% of the physical habitable space on the planet

Is 97% of the world covered in the ocean?

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean

You'll get this:

Saline seawater covers approximately 361,000,000 km2 (139,000,000 sq mi) and is customarily divided into several principal oceans and smaller seas, with the ocean covering approximately 71% of Earth's surface and 90% of the Earth's biosphere.[6] The ocean contains 97% of Earth's water

That's where they probably got the 97% from.

The first reference given, is utterly wrong in it's very first sentence. Pretty fundamental error to confuse the proportion of water, versus the proportion of habitable space by a group of supposed scientists writing up a serious research report, don't you think? And in the very first sentence.

20 years ago, I read the same sort of hysteria. The oceans were going to be dead by 2015. Deoxygenation was going to kill us all. The plankton that provides more than 85% of oxygen was dying. Here we are.

Further, again from https://portals.iucn.org/library/node/48892 this is the first entry in the index:

1. What is ocean deoxygenation? (1.8 MB)

What kind of person wouldn't know what deoxygenation is? This wasn't written for the consumption of scientists, it was written as propaganda - and pretty sloppy propaganda at that. I remember when we used to have competent propagandists, now it seems just the sons and daughters or well connected people get the job - who are pretty dumb. Science is a bit difficult after all, AND it's work to do real research. They don't bother.

But I did! I love research.

I knew it!

Here I am, dead again.

I disagree.

Ignore opinion, and check facts. Form your own opinion.

When you encounter a lie, you will inevitably find it doesn't make sense in some way. When you encounter the truth, it entirely makes sense.

For example

The lie:

Remember when Assad was supposedly gassing his own people? He kept doing this when the US was supposedly about to leave, and ISIS was "about to be defeated". What an odd thing for Assad to keep gassing his own people even when the US warned him that if he did this, the US would bomb him. What was even odder is that Nikki Haley kept saying "we have intelligence that Assad is about to gas his own people" - then Assad would. How would she know? Why would Assad being announcing this in advance, to anybody?

What is even odder is that the Douma chemical attack had two instances of whistleblowers from the OPCW claim that it never happened, and the people who produced the report misrepresented their findings.

And then you get weird stuff like this:

www.youtube.com/embed/fBgViIGLo-w

A reporter, goes to Douma, sniffs a backpack, and concludes that a chemical attack happened? If it was Sarin the entire place is poison. What does a chemical weapons attack even smell like?

The truth:

The United States is concoting excuses to bomb Syria because they want Assad out of power. They are after the oil resources in the Golan Heights, because Genie Energy signed a deal with Israel to extract them in early 2013 - 9 months before the supposed Ghouta chemical attacks.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2013-02-21/israel-awards-first-license-to-drill-on-golan-heights-to-genie

As a bonus, Russia has their only base in the Middle East in Syria:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Russian_military_bases_abroad#Map

The US intelligence agencies, and media lie and thinks every civilian is a simpleton and trusts them. They are partially right. They are wrong about civilians being simpletons - they aren't, but they are very trusting and quite gullible. They are also ignorant because although people like me explain the situation, they never check to verify it is true. Check my claims, verify my sources, and find OTHER sources that make the same claims.

US news agencies lie a lot - but to cover their ass, they also tell the truth. It's just on page 15 of the Sunday edition in between an article about the joys of gardening and the importance of socks.

I have gotten into the habit when researching medical information to go to pg.15 on the searches, to bypass the captive Pharma and baleful fake news influences/infomercials disguised as advice.

On the beginning two pages at the start of the search, I came across an LA Times article that equated 'Statin Denialists' with 'Global Warming Denialists', just people who didn't know "The Truth" and what was mandated to be good for them. That was a refreshing cross pollination of nonsense equivalency for agitprop purposes from our depraved legacy press.

I have a suggestion - try using http://www.yandex.com instead of google. They are Russian so, since they have sanctions, they cannot be paid to promote US propaganda. They can be paid to produce Russian propaganda though.

Here's a challenge - find a paper that demonstrates a correlation between statin use, and longevity compared against a control group that foregoes statins.

Statins are evil - they do remove cholesterol, but guess what part of your body needs cholesterol - your brain. It protects your nervous system. My mother was put on statins then started to have difficulty remembering. My parents now live in a retirement community when they are near friends, and have ready access to doctors. I was so fucking pissed off that my brother - a nurse - didn't know about statins. I directly challenged him to find a paper that showed statins increased longevity - precisely because I know there is no such paper - but I dunno, i not in the medical profession, and it's not like I know everything. He couldn't find anything though.

I'll never take statins.

In the off chance you thought i was kidding.

Statins treat a test result, for those who totemize the significance of test results. A lot of men are terrified of heart attacks, especially if they had fathers or close relatives who have died of them. I know doctors who take statins because they fear heart attacks.

Internist tells patient 'You have this horrible test result and it means you are at higher risk of heart attack" "What do I do?" "Well, take this statin and it will bring the test results down and reduce your risk!" This often takes place with the doc minimizing the risks and side effects of the statins themselves, which are quite diverse and even can be life threatening. I think they tried to cover up a study that showed that statins overall not only didn't save lives statistically OVERALL (due to side effects of statins) but that in the study group that did not take the statins, there was even evidence to suggest the overall fatalities were very slightly lower, in spite of the modestly lower risk of heart attack per se that existed in the group who took the statins.

So If I were to pick my poison, i would opt to go without statins and endure the modestly higher risk of heart attack rather than the side effects of statins. My test for fats are all normal, anyway. However, they are one of the things that Pharma would like to have everybody on chronically.

Sort of like Covid logic: We are SAVING LIVES, when what you do kills more than it saves, but everybody is paralyzed by fear, so the fear is addressed rather than the reality.

I've heard the same thing.

Me? I'd rather have the heart attack then be a vegetable although I could be a vegetable either way. I've seen slow mental deterioration of older people on statins.

My grandmother was on a bunch of drugs - she was as sharp as a tack. Brilliant woman, she used to have times when she just felt exhausted and so would lie down. Doctor said she was having heart problems - so the drugs started. She slowly lost her mind and lived that way for 20 years. She broke her hip one day, and basically the conclusion was "it's time", so she was removed from the drugs.

She was back, sharp as a tack, completely coherent for weeks - then she died.

So.... I don't have much faith in being on 15 drugs to live, if you can call having no long term memory for 20 years as "living".

Most statins are generic now. But if you want to know the truth about statins look for the number needed to treat (NNT). It measures how many people would need to take the drug for one year in order to prevent one heart attack or stroke during that year.

Just one of many effects of the relentless effort of Cultural Marxism.

That is why they try to gain as much appeasement like this as they can.

They use the threat of more AntiFa-style violent protests and looting as leverage to gain as much as they can such as a city mayor forcing the removal of Confederate statues, etc.

Patnet, this is why I keep coming back. The OP has not responded to anything and we're now on the topic of statins. Which will then result in Tim coming back and reprimanding for you not staying on topic in 5...4...3...2...1...

A few years back when I was on a jury, we had an elementary teacher who did not show up for the initial selection. The judge had her arrested in the classroom in front of the students and brought before him in handcuffs.

LOL! C++ is the lowest paid, and Pearl is the highest.

What a load of garbage, trying to keep Silicone Commies relevant, when they are busted up.

Ruby and Pearl users trying to promote their self worth.

I code in C# we have meetings and I get my action items, I can turn them around in a few hours to a few days.
The Ruby folks at the other companies then spend months and months and missed deadlines and buggy launches.

Then I always end up having to dumb down my code to accommodate shit the Ruby idiots couldn't accomplish.

I know it's about Lies, Liars and Damn Lies.

If you look at C++ most C++ jobs are teaching C++, or managing existing projects with minimal new code, because the Schools are doing a shit job at teaching people applied programming.
So we have people who learn languages that they don't have a clue on how to use to earn a living. So they end up teaching, or in QA.
When you actually see a job for C++ or any C variant for that matter. The bar to get the job is higher than other languages, and it pays more than the other jobs as well.
