Censorship is rarely a good idea.
Why bother with this site at all if it's just a bunch of zerohedge zombies who have nothing to contribute besides zerohedge links?
Why ask the question, when it only seems to affect you. Whining doesn't seem to work, what's your next move?

I don't deny that clusters of forum members enjoy getting into a ZH circle-jerk but I am definitely not the only one on this site who hates zerohedge links.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('careinke', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('asg70', 'I')t wasn't an investigation. It was extortion. Thank you, play again.
Actually Bidens actions were extortion.
Prove it.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Newfie', 'i')t’s lamenting that the rest are no better.
It's a fatalistic argument to say such.
IMHO, they are better, but not perfect.
I also don't blame CNN or MSNBC for being anti-trump. Objectively speaking everyone should be against trump. He's incompetent and corrupt.
Media muckraking serves a purpose. Think of Woodward and Bernstein vis a vis watergate. If Trump has nothing to hide then he has nothing to fear from the media scrutinizing vs. bootlicking.
I do find it rather depressing that some of the long term posters here who are supposedly keyed in on limits to growth seem indistinguishable from your average alt-righters when it comes to support for Trump (not to mention lifestyle, whether it be profligate flying or not wanting to give up big ICE trucks). When all is said and done he will have done more to accelerate us towards a malthusian catastrophe than any president in modern memory. That to me is proof positive that cognitive dissonance and tribalism knows no bounds.
It just seems like as we get closer to doom the biggest coping mechanism most are latching onto is blindly shifting towards the right, supporting the "strong man" and demonizing the entire liberal platform (including anything remotely green).

')Sometimes if you listen you can learn something, form a new more nuanced opinion.
Nuance? Hah. This place is only for hyperbole, not nuance. But then that's true of pretty much the entire internet. Par for the course.

That's highly subjective.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Newfie', 'Y')es. And it’s your choice to add to the furor or to make considered observations. Are you simply an animal driven by your base desires or do you have a reasoning ability?
I don't know what the heck you're talking about. There are countless articles that make the case for Trump being thrown out of office. If I were to drop them in here you guys would just casually dismiss them. There is no "reasoning" going on here, just tribalism. It would be nice if you got off your moral high-horse and just copped to it.
