Diary of disturbing disinformation and harmful delusions
This slur:
“[Elon Musk and the right] wish to . . . be capable to punch folks within the face . . . and chuckle about it. . . . I suppose [Musk] misses the previous [apartheid] South Africa.”
— MSNBC host Pleasure Reid, April 26
We are saying: Reid blasts Elon Musk and conservatives for eager to “harass,” “punch folks within the face” and unfold misinformation on Twitter. However in making such an outrageous suggestion, she herself is partaking in exactly the type of ugly, slanderous assaults she accuses Musk of waging. Do speaking heads like Reid ever hearken to themselves?
This testimony:
“We inherited a damaged and dismantled system . . . But, we now have successfully managed an unprecedented variety of non-citizens looking for to enter the USA.”
— Homeland Safety Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas testifying before a House subcommittee, April 27
We are saying: Whats up? The variety of “southwest land border encounters” final month, per US Customs and Border Safety, was 221,303 — greater than six instances the quantity in March 2020, when Donald Trump was president. Staff Biden’s insurance policies and rhetoric fueled a harmful, historic surge, and Mayorkas & Co. have done nothing but further encourage it by welcoming migrants and even delivery them off to assorted locations throughout the nation. In the event that they proceed to disclaim their very own function on this catastrophe, what hope is there of their ever fixing it?
This report:
We are saying: Like President Joe Biden, the Grey Girl bent over backward Thursday to downplay the worrisome 1.4% drop in GDP over the first quarter. The paper claims slowing inventories and a commerce imbalance drove the decline however that the financial system is robust nonetheless. Equally, Biden blamed “technical elements” for the sluggish progress — simply as he mentioned inflation was going to be “transitory.” In reality, many economists now imagine a recession is probably going a while quickly.
This warning:
“Not since an asteroid worn out the dinosaurs — together with half of all different beings on Earth — has life within the ocean been so in danger.”
— The Washington Submit, April 28
We are saying: Hardly a day goes by with out climate-change alarmists citing some new looming hazard, within the absence of pressing, draconian motion. But this absurd Washington Post suggestion (primarily based on a new study in the journal Science) — that warming temperatures might be as disastrous because the asteroid that “worn out” half of all life — is past priceless. Truth is, the earth’s temperature and atmospheric make-up have been altering, with or with out man’s assist, because the starting of time. And, sure, some species have gone extinct. However the gradual impression of local weather change, which helps some species even when challenges others, is nothing just like the shock of an asteroid strike that brought about the equal of a years-long “nuclear winter.” This type of hype goals merely to scare and manipulate.
This story:
We are saying: How do Rubin (who as soon as claimed to be conservative) and The Washington Submit come up with such lunacy? Earth to Rubin: The Republican Occasion is a political social gathering. Interval. That some Republicans are white Christians doesn’t make it a white Christian motion — and whether it is, it’s one which’s more and more attracting minorities. In reality, Rubin’s assault is geared toward white Christians themselves as a lot as, if no more than, Republicans. But concentrating on each is as unhinged as it’s disgusting.
