People complained in the 1970s that the media conglomerate was too liberal. It was never truly not partisan.
And that was true, it was partisan and liberal, it has been for a hundred years.

But it's way, way worse now.

And the Republicans used to be pro-big business, had strong conservative beliefs and the "American values" you described.

The ones in charge right now are leaning to the edge of Fascism in order to regain the control they lost when the Obama era began.
There are a lot of problems with Trump that if you put it to a vote on this board, would be purged out of the party, but fascism is not one of the things that's a problem with Republicans these days. What exactly about what they've done is fascist?

That word describes the modern left.

Biden fibs: Leave him alone! He's an old man who occasionally gets confused!
Trump fibs: Lying Nazi bastard!

Also Trump fibs about how many people showed up to his inauguration.

Biden fibs about Covid.

He's trying to make it sound like it's one side's fault. It clearly isn't.

Who tf else would be to blame for the things he mentioned? This isn't an answer either, btw.

She just is abbrassive. Even if she was saying something everyone could agree with, I'd have a hard time agreeing with her. Just an unlikable personality.
She is a just a skipped heartbeat away.

Worst Veep since Quayle.

Shit, I went to a meeting at my daughter's school not two weeks ago, and they did it over the intercom and every single kid stopped what they were doing and put their hands on their hearts. It was amazing to see.

And public school kids are allowed to opt out if they want. No one is forced to pledge.
