Some posters here demand links to theories/stories that don’t fit their point of view. Of course the same posters cry foul when links are given because of bias.....unless of course they cry about “use your own words”....

Recently a discussion was shut down, again, because links were not provided for stories. These are stories that have been out there for months or longer. But they went against the narrative and the poster displayed ignorance of the opposing point of view. Proving once again that he does not consider anything outside of his comfort zone as anything but right wing nut job conspiracy.

Just today another poster started a thread about the Stone-Corsi feud and how it means trouble for Trump because of a perceived connection to the Wiki dumps. Well, AG Barr said in his letter today that Mueller found no connection. The poster’s link was from Mother Jones....good God, the hypocrisy. Hint: just because your favorite “journalist” claims something as fact, does not magically make it fact.

How many dozens or hundreds of links have we seen on here “proving Trump colluded with Russia”? How many times have posters been admonished for claiming “fake news”?

Maybe now would be a good time for the offenders to expand their world. Maybe when you see someone claim a fact you will check if someone else claims the opposite. Then keep digging and make an informed decision. Nobody needs to read the regurgitated stenography from the main stream news that is all around each of us everyday.....But when you do and because your cornerstone narrative was just shot to hell, leave a little room for actual discussion.
