It pops up all the time, it’s a waste of time and I’m sure it has been used countless of times to discard some piece of information. It doesn’t add up anything productive to the comments, people who comment don’t even say anything they actually think they just “did you know that MBFC says this so it has to be truth?” I could go on but I think you get the idea.
Ooooh. This is lemmy.ml, oops. I deleted ask anything from here since this group was tiring. But now I can guess why people are upset about the comment even though no one took the time to answer and give a few examples… they just took time to say how upsetting the site was
Everyone replied to you in more than one way and there are at least 4 or 5 examples of people doing these lazy strawmen. You’re the one who, as you showed, doesn’t bother reading or thinking critically. Imagine being offended because I oppose using some rando’s POV on news as factual evidence.
I propose you a brain game. I will create my own media bias fact fuck, and everything that’s not lefty is considered biased.
I missed these. Where were the links to past comments? Or are you counting generic arguments, because those don’t paint a very clear picture so I didn’t count them. And they seemed very much like the same argument with different words: for some reason they imply sources in towards the centre of the political spectrum are without bias and for some reason that means people don’t read them critically when this is pointed out.
I get that from what I guess your views are but it’s also not particularly equivalent. Especially for the US media landscape and for better or worse a lot of these checks seem to have their roots there.

The second link is exactly what I was after. Thanks.
Am I misunderstanding the first just after waking up? It seems to be a summary that points to this comment as its example:

And that seems to be someone referencing the site while dripping with sarcasm and seems to be making the case that the OP is.

Now go read the UNwatch website.
You’re going to have to spell out the point you attempted to make
Stop.You are not entitled to tedious explanations of everything. You are abusing the good will of the members of this community. Many users have been exhaustingly comprehensive in answering your questions, but you insist on being dismissive, obtuse, and lazy. It is clear that you’re trolling. I hate to consider the alternative and how it reflects on your behavior, so I’ll give you the benefit the doubt.Edit: whoops, I forgot I was reading a month-old thread. So, I added a strikethrough to the word “stop” since this conversation was over until I showed up.
Fucking hilarious comment in the conversation tree to add this comment to. (It assumes context with UN Watch and knowing what specific views this community holds of it). It highlights why I left the community and blocked a couple of people in this conversation. Feel free to do the same to me
One of the issues with me trying to understand more here was that this thread blew up so it was tough to keep threads straight and I made mistakes replying to a comment assuming it was isolated but it was answered elsewhere or the same person made a lot of comments.
I see you made a few comments and the other two seem to be pretty low information and not in good faith… so I guess I’ll find that button for you too
Go back to bed grandpa, your brain is leaking.
