    Here's a tip, if the preview cap on a video is picked to give someone a maniacal look and bug eyes it's probably not a factual piece. I started watching one of your videos, I didn't need to finish it or watch the rest of them to know what they are. They're made so that rubes believe them. Not everything on the internet is true you know.

    Might read this: attributed to K . Rove TACTICS FOR EFFECTIVE CONSERVATIVE BLOGGING Engage Demand an elaborate, time-consuming comparison / analysis between your position and theirs. Entangle Insist that the Liberal put their posts in their own words. That will consume the most time and effort for the Liberal poster. They will be unable to spread numerous points on numerous blogs if you have them occupied. Allowing a Liberal to post a web link is too quick and efficient for them. Tie them up. We are going for delay of game here. Demoralize Dismiss their narrative as rubbish immediately. Do not even read it. Once the Liberal goes through the trouble to research, gather, collate, compose and write their narrative your job is to discredit it. Make it obvious you tossed their labor-intensive narrative aside like garbage. This will have the effect of demoralizing the Liberal poster. It will make them unwilling to expend the effort again, and for us, that is a net win. Attack Attack the source. Any Liberal website or information source must be marginalized, trivialized and discounted. Let the blogosphere know that Truthout.org, thinkprogress.org, the nation and moveon.org are Liberal rubbish propaganda. Discredit Liberal sources of information whenever possible. Confuse Challenge the Liberal position with questions, always questions. The questions need not be relevant. The goal is to knock the Liberal poster off their game, and seize control of the narrative. Once you have control you can direct the narrative to where you want it to go, which is always away from letting the Liberal make their point. Conversely, do not respond to their leading questions. Don't rise to their bait. Contain Your job is to prevent the presentation and spread of Liberal viewpoints. Do anything you must do to prevent a Liberal poster from presenting a well-reasoned argument or starting a civil discussion. Don't allow a Liberal to present their dogma unchallenged EVER. Intimidate Taunt the Liberals. If you find yourself in a debate with a Liberal where you are losing a fact-based argument then call them a name to derail their diatribe. Remember your goal is to prevent a meaningful exchange of views and ideas which may portray Liberalism in a positive light. Your goal as a conservative blogger is to stop the spread and advance of the Liberal agenda. Play upon any identifiable idiosyncrasies, character flaws, physical traits, names, to their disadvantage. Monitor other posts for vulnerabilities you can exploit. Stay on the offensive with Liberal wimps. Don't let up. Insult their Movement Assign as many character and moral flaws to Liberals as you can. You must portray Liberals as weak, vacillating, indecisive, amoral, baby killers, unpatriotic, effete snobs, elitists, Leftists, Commies, sense of entitlement, promiscuous, union lovers, tax raisers, Welfare Queens, Socialists, lazy, sex-obsessed, druggies, Jesus haters, moochers, troop hater,.etc. Always use these negative epithets when referring to, or describing Liberals / democrats. Deceive Identify yourself as a moderate, centrist or independent. It will also cause Liberals to lower their guard a bit, which gives you an effective opening. This may also have the effect of aligning conservative viewpoints with the real moderates we are attempting to reach. It may serve to influence some moderates over to the Republican side. Patriotism Always claim the high ground of pro-military, low taxes, strong defense, morality and religion. We own those virtues. Learn how to exploit them when debating Demean Always refer to the other side as Liberals, Lefty Liberals, Libbies. Never assign them the status of a bona-fide political party. Hang Liberalism around their neck like a burning tire. Make Liberalism appear as a moral turpitude or a character flaw. They are NEVER, NEVER to be referred to as the Democratic Party. At best it is the democrat party. Never assign them respect. Opportunity Be alert for ways to insert our catch phrases into your narrative. You will receive your daily list of talking points and topics that we want you to cover. Consistent, persistent repetition and inculcation will drive our talking points home and so will neuro-linguistic programming. Stick with it and our talking points will become truth. If they debunk your talking point, ignore it, and move on as if you didn't hear it.

  4. God forbid that create outrage. No, the white nationalist outrage is directed towards people who felt compassion for a person claiming to be a victim of a racist, bigoted attack. As if that's a bad thing. These people are so devoid of compassion...sorry, let me be specific, they are devoid of compassion for blacks and gays. They have plenty of compassion for the super rich, white guys who sexually abuse women (as long as they arent Democrats) etc. Can we stop beating around the bush? No one ever supported white supremacists because of their economic policies who wasnt also a racist. And we can be subjected to all the goofy, "amusing" gifs and youtube clips in the world to hide that fact, but its the truth. Why is AOC always the target? Lets see...rookie politician. Woman. Woman of colour. It comes down to her needing to learn her place. Its that simple.

  5. Allowed to read...? No, that's not it. It's more of a matter of not wasting one's time reading garbage. Hence the purpose of vetting sources before recklessly posting them. And I mean, sure... If you want to ignore how Media Bias/Fact Check analyzes all media sources on the entire spectrum from left (https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/left/) to right (https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/right/), fill your boots and make baseless, deflectionary accusations. I'd suggest instead, though, to spare us all from that and the other useless, defensive, whiny nonsense* and read up on this website: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/about/ Here's how MB/FC operates: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/methodology/ Here's the code of principles by which it operates: https://ifcncodeofprinciples.poynter.org/ (https://www.poynter.org/mission-vision/) I'd really like to know how one can claim and substantiate MB/FC is an "alt-left rating" website when reality flies in the face of that claim. To say nothing of posting links from sources that have proven to be horribly biased and disingenuous. The best part: you can use this same website to vet sources posted by others. * the repeated use of "alt-left" and "1984" is actually absurd and bordering on delusional

  13. The part where you make up things and insult him. Did you even watch the video? How does it look like he's "eating too many cheeseburgers"...? He's wearing a hockey jersey the entire time. His face doesn't look fatter. Where in the video is he limping - slightly or otherwise? He walks to and from centre ice, up stairs, down stairs... What limp? You apparently seem to enjoy taking shots at #15 from your keyboard but the link you posted did nothing but refute your claim.

Everybody knew Reilly to BC was a done deal since mid season of last year. I guess the best way to end any speculation of tampering by Hervey is for Reilly to say he was open to offers though.

  29. If there was a "national outrage" over the dubious incident, it was limited to gullible left-wing journalists, celebrities, politicians, and activists. The "narrative" only seemed "cut-and-dry" to people who were looking at the case through lenses clouded by their anti-Trump bias. It seemed made up to those of us who noticed that Smollett's allegations were outlandish, implausible, and riddled with inconsistencies from the get-go. Yet even as his story started falling apart (which happened almost immediately), the national media clung to their precious narrative. There's been much commentary in the past few days about the MSM's lack of critical thinking skills in covering not only the Jussie Smollett "hate crime" fairy tale, but a number of other bogus stories as well. Over the years, the MSM has fallen for hundreds of hate crime hoaxes, reporting on them as if they were confirmed facts, rather than mere allegations. By the time the story is proven to be a hoax, the media has already moved on to the next manufactured outrage. This phenomenon has only increased since the election of President Trump. Yet people still expressed shock and surprise when it became obvious that Smollett had staged his own hate crime. But fake hate crimes aren't the only type of bogus story the MSM routinely falls for. In the past two years the national media has also rushed to embrace the phony Steele dossier, a multitude of fake Deep State leaks on the Trump/Russia probe that turned out to be spectacularly wrong, the outlandish Kavanaugh smears, and the Covington smears. PJ Media's own Roger Simon called the media's propensity for believing the unbelievable "magical thinking." Another possible explanation for the media's gullibility would be confirmation bias, which is defined as "the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms one's preexisting beliefs or hypotheses." The overwhelmingly liberal media tend to embrace stories that confirm their own biases and ignore those that don't. https://pjmedia.com/trending/why-does-the-msm-keep-falling-for-obvious-hoaxes/ This is just sad.. https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/pj-media/

    You know in this day and age it is very important to actually think about the credibility of the news we consume. It is too easy to seek out things we agree with and just assume they are correct rather than actually doing some critical thinking of our own and deciding which news sources are to be trusted, and I am sorry but a lot of the crap you're posting is from horrendous sources. Yeah there's a lot of left leaning opinions out there that need to be ignored too, but honestly, the truth is much more left leaning than it is right, which is why so many news agencies appear to be slanted left. It's uncomfortable for people on the right to hear, but yes, the right is a minority.
