Kind of like how Mn always nitpicks where a post originated from, rather than debate it’s content
I think the latest "debates" about content may have begun with where the content originated. Then you would ask for a comment rather than point of origin, and the comment would be that the post from Jordan, Pakistan or South Asia was a lie, disinformation or whatever.

This morning's fishwrap includes an LA Times 'story' about Hegseth and the prayer breakfast. The story is essentially the same as Tempo's rage bait version from the guy based in Jordan. 

The misinformation story went from Jordan, to Tempo, to HQ2, and then finally made it to the left coast and the LATimes. And now in this morning's fishwrap.

Tempo: Trump said.
Me: No he didn't.

Tempo: Hegseth said.
Me: No he didn't.

Tempo: Hegseth misquoted.
Me: No he didn't.

Tempo: I won't debate.
Me:  ;D

Were there any more from this week ?

What have I shared/posted that wasn’t mostly, if not all factual?

“Mostly factual” is a thing.

“Mostly factual” is a thing.

Factuality Rating Levels
0: Very High – Consistently factual, uses credible information, no failed fact checks.
0.1–1.9: High – High factual, minor sourcing issues, reasonable fact check record
2.0–4.4: Mostly Factual – Generally reliable but may have occasional fact-check failures, transparency, and sourcing issues.
4.5–6.4: Mixed – Reliability varies; multiple fact-check failures, poor sourcing, lack of transparency, one-sidedness.
6.5–8.4: Low – Often unreliable; frequent fact-check failures and significant issues with sourcing, transparency, propaganda, conspiracies, and pseudoscience promotion.
8.5–10: Very Low – Consistently unreliable, heavily biased, with intentional misinformation likely.

I’m very familiar with both sides of the debates on illegal immigration and origins of Covid. I think the reason I stick up for Mn sometimes is that you guys do the exact same thing to him that you accuse him of doing to you.

There is more than enough evidence that the virus came from a lab leak to at least have a rational discussion about it, and there is plenty of evidence to consider that the massive spike in illegals that coincides perfectly with Biden’s time in office was more than what Ray says it is.

Mn has provided data and charts on these things in spades, and while there may be nuances to both perspectives, the data and charts he brings aren’t cherry picked or out of context. If anything, people refuse to believe Mn’s sources or breakdowns just as often as you accuse him of dismissing others.

It’s just one of those situations where both sides are going to cling to their points and refuse to acknowledge the others.

Tempo accused me today of labeling anything I don’t agree with as “ragebait”

Similarly, from my perspective, I see Alum, Ray, Tempo, etc routinely discard anything they don’t agree with as “your sources suck”

Meanwhile Tempo is reposting Iranian AI propaganda with no qualms whatsofuckingever.

So stop with the name calling, you jagoffs!

The weird thing from Mn is, some person he thinks is Un reputable for whatever reason posts unedited video of Hegseth spewing nonsense and he attacks the source to rebut the raw video

Mn posts court transcripts and documents, reputable reports, graphs and charts from legitimate sources.

Tempo posts AI generated Iranian propaganda from anonymous overseas Twotter accounts.

No surprise that the AI generated Iranian propaganda takes what Hegseth said completely out of context to spin a narrative. Crazy times we live in.

Mn constantly hides behind innuendo, practices the art of omission, and likes to debate the definition of “is.”
