            Not really. Enlighten me, please.

            There are people on MSNBC I avoid but at the very least it’s a good place to find out about stuff that I can research on my own, usually with Ground News. I don’t have anything bad to say about Rachel though.

              They’re the standard bearer for capital L Liberals. They pandered for Biden and Kamala. They maintain the status quo and do for Libs what Fox does for Conservatives.

              If I’m saying this and you’re thinking to yourself, “what the fuck is this asshole talking about?,” you need to learn that Libs are as complicit in getting Trump elected by towing the moderate messaging and not supporting what the majority of people really want.

              Libs would rather see a third term with Trump than elect a true representative of the people. To Libs, progressive idealism is cancer, because it would undermine the establishment they so love and protect.

              MSNBC is trash. Even Maddow.

                Maybe a little? They criticised them when it was appropriate so I mostly disagree.

                They maintain the status quo and do for Libs what Fox does for Conservatives.

                I disagree. Fox is legit propaganda, MSNBC is pretty factual. They do sprinkle in their opinions which I could do without even though I generally agree with them.

                you need to learn that Libs are as complicit in getting Trump elected by towing the moderate messaging and not supporting what the majority of people really want.

                Libs are as complicit in getting Trump elected as the right is? Sorry, no. They did fuck up by trying to appeal to people in the center and the right and being them to the left, which MSNBC and their guests did not hesitate to point out.

                Libs would rather see a third term with Trump than elect a true representative of the people.

                No they would not prefer to see a 3rd term with Trump. If you believe that then I don’t think you’re paying attention.

                To Libs, progressive idealism is cancer, because it would undermine the establishment they so love and protect.

                Maybe, maybe not, but we’ve got 2 choices. I’m going to keep voting against the Republicans.

                  I always vote against Republicans. I always vote FOR the people, even if it means supporting the Libs. You are misinformed. Being an MSNBC fan, I am not surprised.

                  Good luck.

                We’re comparing “similar” alternatives to 2024 ABC News here, no?
