You guys go on and on about how bad is the right wing press and independent media. I agree that the right wing press is ridiculous and full of hypocrisy, but you guys are just as bad. Here are a couple examples of your bias towards the Washington establishment:
1) In your critique of Tucker Carlson, you claim that the corporate media and Democratic establishment is covering the danger of nuclear war. In reality, there is very little in the mainstream corporate press about the danger and/or consequences of nuclear war, considering the devastating possibilities. There is much more danger to the survival of humanity from nuclear war than from Jan 6. If the danger and consequences of such a war was given 1/2 the attention as Jan 6, the american public might understand the danger that the Washington establishment is putting us in and might come to their collective senses and oppose the nuclear brinkmanship that both parties are pushing.
2) You misrepresent Glenn Greenwald's positions to advance your narrative. You claim that Greenwald is being hypocritical by blaming the main stream media for inciting the threat to Justice Kavanaugh while giving Tucker Carlson and Fox news a pass. That is a blatant misrepresentation of his position. His position is thus: He does not blame any media figures for the actions of deranged criminals. He says that it is hypocritical for the Washington establishment leaning media to not hold the left to the same standards that they frequently hold the right. You may disagree with him or not but you guys just sound like total partisan hacks by misrepresenting his views. I see such blatant disregard for truth and consistency all over your content.
(3) The idea that Democrats should work with or cozy up to Liz Cheney in any capacity, as if the ideology that she believes is any use to the US, is really as much as an affront to democracy as Trump. Where is the outrage about her father's role in the shutting down of recounts in Florida (not just because he is her father, but because she represents a continuation of his policies)?
1. There were plenty of articles about the possibility of nuclear war, strange that you missed them. Why did we stop talking about it? Because Putin has already been humiliated in Ukraine and didn't use them. Clearly, unless Russia is invaded (which is never going to happen), Putin is not suicidal enough to use nukes.
2. Since there's no particular link to the Kavanaugh guy and any liberal host, Greenwald simply made up a connection in order to excuse the numerous acts of violence committed directly because of Tucker Carlson. How generous of Greenwald to not hold anyone accountable when only the right actively promotes terrorism.
That's not a misrepresentation. That's a stone cold fact.
3. Whataboutism is used to distract from what is actually happening. Cheney is loathsome but she torched her career to fight literal fascism. Where is your outrage over the GOP's ongoing coup attempt? I think if someone were trying to slit your throat and someone who slashed your car tires 20 years ago offered to help, you'd accept it. Do you disagree? Would you reject the help and feel morally clean as your bled out on the floor?
How about if the killer promised to murder your entire family afterwards? Would you still take the moral high ground and refuse the help? Am I being hyperbolic? We both know that isn't true. The right openly talks about mass executions. Constantly.
2. You attack Greenwald which does not address my point about The Banter's misrepresentation of his views. I would say that you agree that they misrepresented his viewpoints.
I would not. Greenwald only holds the "liberal media" accountable and he lies to do it. That's his entire schtick. That, and pretending the right is not a fascist white nationalist shithole.
He does not say that the liberal media is the cause of violence by criminals. That is your misrepresentation of his viewpoint. He says that, by their own standards, the liberal media should be blaming themselves for violence against right wing figures, just as they blame right wing media for violence against the left. He is consistent. They are not
Show me one main stream article in the past 6 months which describes the consequences of nuclear war and the current danger of an exchange, which could be due to some miscommunication or false positive attack because tensions are high. If you are not worried because neither side is suicidal, you are naive at best. War escalates without either side planning it. These idiots that you excuse are pushing us to the brink.
Liz Cheney is allied with her father, who was as much of an authoritarian as Trump, if not more. Giving her legitimacy for any reason is unacceptable. Obvious that your Democrats so weak that they need her to help. They are the cause of Trump in the first place. It’s their lies and broken promises that prodded many Obama supporters to vote for such a loser candidate.
Neither of your examples addresses the danger of accidental nuclear confrontation due to brinksmanship that the US is engaging in over a regional conflict that should not concern us. Even the liberal favorite Obama concluded that Ukraine was not of vital interest to the US. Neo cons want to shape the world using US military power which can only lead to disaster. And the Democratic Party has surrendered to neo cons because they are afraid of Trumpism. Neo cons are worse than Trump.

Time to move that goalpost.
It's not like you're making a good faith argument anyway. :)
The Democratic Party is moving towards Liz Cheney and the neocon right not the other way around. That's why they keep losing elections.

VOX? I said Mainstream media.
Time to move the goalposts again...
And here's Fox, because sheep need to be fed sheeple food. But oh look! Even they discussed nuclear war.

Here's the NYT. Baaaaaaaaa...
https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=new+york+times+nuclear+war
Vox has over 23 million views per month and is highly respected by most people who aren't Fox News sheep.
But here's the Washington Post because apparently sheep can't google.

No where near the amount of press given to Jan 6, and a much more dangerous threat to humanity
