Anyway, I posted this because multiple rightoids tried to argue with me and claim I was wrong and Sinema was totally fine and popular among Arizona dems.
I claimed Sinema was in a lot of danger, because she isn;t Joe Manchin. The DNC is gaining ground in arizona and can't ignore the left-wing activist bloc or they risk sinking turnout in the state.
Surprise surprise, this is the exact reasoning the state party is now rejecting Sinema:
But she faces political dynamics unlike the other Senate moderate thwarting Democratic ambitions, Joe Manchin of West Virginia. Representing a state that former President Donald Trump carried by nearly 39 percentage points in 2020, Manchin is unlikely to face a progressive challenger who would gain traction.
In Arizona, however, Democrats are ascendant. Joe Biden was the first Democratic presidential candidate to carry the state since 1996, and the party is eager to build on that success. That makes it harder for a Democrat to simply ignore the left here, particularly in a primary election.

Am i just r-slurred or do they not bother at all to put up the pretense of being unbiased? This phrasing is the exact same shit liberals would lose their minds over Fox News doing back in the day.
"Some say/consider <insert caricature of defamed person's position>" is just the author putting their own butt mad interpretation in. Just write an opinion piece and simmer down. Journ*lists need to rope.

I mean I disagree, it's objectively true American democracy is on the decline, and it's objectively true Trump tried to steal the 2020 election.
Facts that paint the GOP in a bad light aren't "biased."
Either way the article is right: many people do consider it this important.

Remember when the democrats mobilized BLM and had them riot in the streets and burn down cities for a year to win the election?

The idea the BLM shit somehow endangered democracy or was even "mobilized" by the democratic party is straight r-sluration lmao.
This is yet another example of conservative proportionality blindness. Either they really are this dumb or they're intentionally making weird false comparisons because they know they can't defend against accusations made.

Wasn't there that whole series of news articles where the Democrat activist leaders bragged about calling off all the riots in their whatsapp groups?
I remember someone posting that and finding it funny at the time, but I don't care enough to try find it.

Would you actually find that for me? That would be a fascinating read.

Disappointing. I read the whole dumb article expecting it to say BLM riots were called off. But it was just protect the vote protests.
Far less dramatic.

For the record, not one person that cites that article to claim some kind of nefarious actions has ever read the article.
I've put this to the test like 30x now, whenever a rightoid cites it I ask them to copy paste where in the article it says anything sketchy happened, and not one has been able to do so.
They literally only read the headline and nothing else.

Did you ever read that Times article gloating about how the democrats mobilized BLM to win the election? Huge mobs rioting in the streets for a year at the behest of politicians is a pretty big deal

I read the whole thing. It was a while ago and im being hyperbolic a bit but it was pretty much saying that the democrats mobilized BLM among other things for the purpose of changing the election. What was ypur interpretation?

Journ*lists are the lowest scum to exist, lower than teachers and Nurses combined. This is all a farce anyway, they basically wanted to make the Covid changes from 2020 permanent. And though they knew it probably wouldn’t work, now when the establishment loses big in 22 they will blame it on their bill not passing to save us from racism^tm

In the last few years AP has gone 100% woke. The only reliable news source I know of that still exists is Reuters. Unfortunately they realized that poorstrags read the news for entertainment so they don't care if it's true, but rich people who want to know what's really happening for making business decisions are willing to pay $30/month.

Watching AP turn was so strange. Reuters went downhill when they got bought by that Russian guy a year or two ago. The only true radical centrists left are in the BBC, and they'll be permafricked this decade once they can't force TV loiscenses.
