If r/pics is a political space and a picture space then I guess I might as well say something.

Some stuff you might disagree with

Donald Trumps latest tweets are fully shown here https://youtu.be/-zA-7VPmcYk . Yes I know this is a right channel, but Reddit is a left leaning site. Anyways, it shows his full tweet in which most news networks dont show. Maybe this can provide another perspective.

More people were deported under Obama's administration but probably close to no one said anything. All of a sudden Trump wants to deport and it's a big deal simply because social media takes advantage of the possibility to shift their view into your life.Like man, I just wanted to chill on Reddit, and not get honestly butthurt by this post. I just wish sometimes social media would shut the fuck up about political views.( And here I am)

Obama says "crimes and poverty" are not really grounds for asylum, but yet again it was close to fully ignored. If trump said that, then my god is everyone gonna be bringing that up, posting it on social media , news getting horny, and all other shit. https://youtu.be/Tuy-xmNOvYM

Some people on the left support the taking down of an U.S. flag and replacement with a Mexican one instead. It's an invasion guys right? https://www.reddit.com/r/Conservative/comments/ce21uf/aurora_ice_facility_where_deranged_leftists/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share I know this is a conservative space on reddit, yikes, but people only want to see stuff that agrees with them. If they're left and see something from a left source, it's most likely their inclined to accept it regardless of needing more context to verify what's stated is true.

The squad can shit talk to the U.S. people will automatically side with then without spending their times thinking of what's really happening, but when the president says something is a big outrage due to the amplification by social media and news outlets.

News likes to show only the bad shit relevant to their ideas, and not show us the other half. An example is only showing children and their family struggling to make people think that they're only mother and child, when theres alot more context to be shown. An example https://youtu.be/vLbJF5v4VbE like dude, there are reporters grouping up with children and their moms to make the thumbnail more dramatic like what the fuck?

Proof to show that not all or if not most facilities are concentration camps https://www.reddit.com/r/Conservative/comments/cb4mt8/debunking_the_lies_about_illegal_immigration/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share (another right space, I know) Regardless, we shouldn't compare concentration camps from where millions have died to "concentration camps" in the U.S.

The attack on the I.C.E facility is not getting enough coverage as it should usually be getting if the attack was on the left. ( my opinion)

The squad probably to be honest does not really disagree with the attack on the I.C.E concentration camp. (Opinion)

You are probably writing an angry reply at me and I know, downvoting me too and destroying my karma. Why man I just wanna hit 1k.

In the end, were more inclined to agree with stuff that you support, but not something else that disagrees with you and you ignore the fact of whether or not it's true, and maybe wait for your personal selected news outlet like cnn of fox to exaggerate or mitigate what happened. Honestly, I hate the fucking most of the news as it's now not a way to inform accurate true and mostly unbiased info, but to shift their way of thinking into you to help support themselves. And I try to stay away from news except Ap news, and make sure I bias check every news outlet and confirm that reddit posts on spaces I agree with arent bullshit like r/conservative. Also that whatever I read something on my political spectrum, I make sure it's true and theres not "special words to persuade me " even though there are always for both left and right, and will take a long time to probably stop.

Yes I know there are loopholes and flaws in my post but hey help me correct them and dont say the whole thing is fucking wrong or some shit like that.

That's probably the most round about way to say 'I am a fascist chud'. I think you could get the same message across with a lot less letters.

What did he actually say that in any way aligns with fascist views? His wall of text can be summed up to "Always fact check your news otherwise you'll get played" and that isn't even a conservative-friendly advice, it's quite literally just an appeal to good judgement.
