How do you respond to this argument that I faced yesterday?
>The left is biased, all MSM outlets are for leftist talking points
>Good, we should be biased for liberal causes, healthcare for all, equal rights for women and minorities, livable wages etc..
>why?
It's not an argument at all, but a false conflation.
It attaches ideas of justice to an ideology while implying the other side doesn't follow justice at all.
It also leaves out every horrible liberal influence in our degenerating society.
Fpbp
No bias means no bias. They have an ethical duty to not be biased
Today my own mother just tried to argue with me that if America was communist then Kavanaugh shit show would have never happened.
who is this semen demon
I mean she's sort of right, it would have happened in secret and nobody would know because they're too busy trying not to starve
Ethical non-bias is a reporter thing, not a journalist/analyst/whateveryst thing.
>healthcare for all
not the worst talking point, but look at the defunct shit show that is called social security, it won't be around for millenials
>equal rights for women and minorities
They already have been equal since at least the 80's, hard to quantify however as equality is literally a subjective measure. What liberals want is minorities having a better chance at life than whites.
>livable wages
The businesses that provide wages for their employees (walmart, macdonalds, UPS, kroger, fedex, steel industry, etc etc etc) are literally already at their limit for wages. you can literally look this up by researching their stock portfolios and looking at their balance sheets.
This country was robbed, starting in 69 with LBJ killing the gold standard. It was desecrated by the community reinvestment act in 1977. And finally in 2008 after 50+ years of bad policy, it all melted down and big banks benefitted thru the federal reserve printing up tons of money and buying up all the bad loans. (**This goes in a lot of depth but I'm lazy rn**) Ted Bernanke, a jew, the head of the Fed at the time, said that this was intentional to create a 'wealth effect'. Suffice to say, the blue collar industries were the ones that suffered. This means it is a more systemic problem. Look at the balance sheets of the investment banks of america, multiply their surplus by ten, and you'll know how much they make.
The issue isn't the common employers, the issue is the ((investment)) bankers.
Tell her to Google "Beria."
Journalists report. You learn that in JOURNALISM classes
This, that's literally not an argument but rather an opinion
What they're trained to do and what they're PAID to do are not the same thing. I bet you a jelly donut Cooper harbors right-leaning thoughts.
No they're literally paid to be unbiased which is why they consistently make no money and people are ready to kill them in the town square.
Are you guys 16? The extreme minority of journalists report real shit and they end up paywalled up in fringe news agencies like Agora or in independent employment. All the rest play the game and make money that way.
No, I simply reminded her that hitler became chancellor because communist degeneracy enabled his rise.
She was literally seething

Also fuck you OP, bump, this shit is real and is one google search away.
Fuck off reddit

Lmao sure, provide me sources for journalists which are both objective and unbiased? Do you know their names? They print them at the top of their articles btw.
How can we know that those things are for the best or if we're taking the right direction to get to them if we can't have an unbiased discussion?
How are we supposed to be able to change society for the better if we don't know the truth?
Tell them the welfare state is propped up by imperialism and the capitalists are bribing the lower classes not to revolt as they gradually lower living conditions for their own profit.
Then call them bourgeois swine and shoot them.
>How do you plan to accomplish any of those things with open borders?
Defense against the Dark arts, son.
git gud
>growth for the sake of growth of is the ideology of the cancer cell
Sounds good as a sound bite, but what is technological development?
technological development is supposed to be to make peoples lives easier and happier
She's not wrong, but not for the right reasons.
all of those promises are a ploy for socialism.
The underlying problem is that he has been taught that argument benefits the people who are wrong, not the people who are right. You can't win any of those discussions without first fixing that. You can thank the right for letting commies run the schools and media for the past fifty years.
Start by pointing out that rhetoric was a part of formal education for two thousand years, apologetics for fifteen hundred, and it's only in the last fifty years under commie school curricula that people began to believe that objectivity is a losing position and persuasion is impossible. His position is one of deliberate and cultivated ignorance. Do him a favor and fix it.
>The media is bias!
>No it is not bias, the media said so!
Self defeating argument.
"healthcare for all, equal rights for women and minorities, livable wages" free market econ indicates all of these are a huge fucking waste of money, you can take a nigger out of africa but you can take the africa out the nigger, people end up based on their intelligence mainly that is why the niggers cry so much muh white supremacy
