I think the availability of knowledge is rigged, so real critical thinkers are the ones thrown under the bus
you avoid any issue that does clearly fit into your "perfect" view, and apparently anyone who wants to discuss things that dont fit into your perfect view are clearly critical thinkers
you dont realize it but you argue like a woman and ignoring the situations where things are clearly done in the name of integrity only undermines your views to others. the fact that integrity no longer matters in politics is basically 90% of why shit is so fucked up.
but lets talk about your claim that the availability of knowledge is rigged. we all know media is there to direct our opinions. so lets just look at the undisputed facts.
1. election results too close to call, recount needed
2. 29 hours pass
3. 15,000 votes found, all from the second largest city in a given district
4. 7500+ vote lead, recount clearly possible
5. person who finds votes does clearly allow others to take part in the tabulation of votes, does it on her personal computer, forgets to save data
these are clearly disputable, no matter your news outlet or viewpoint this is exactly what happened. credibility is lost, truth cant be established.
