    I don’t believe anything anyone says, even from horses mouth.
    We live in a fake news society. Trust nothing, question everything.

    “We live in a fake news society“


    But isn't that because you think it is?

    I don’t get you.
    My point is unless I see something with my own eyes I don’t trust it to be true.
    The media outlets only show us what they want us to believe. Most of it is fake.
    And just because you hear something from ‘the horses mouth’ doesn’t mean it’s true.

    “The media outlets only show us what they want us to believe. Most of it is fake.”

    again you think this. you don't know that, and you have no evidence that “most” news is “fake”

    Social media has completely eroded anybodys trust in anything.

    Also just because you “see” something doesnt mean its true either.

    If that was the case hats would be the only medium for transporting rabbits or cutting people in half without any sort of medical intervention

    I have sympathies with this point of view. The news on most TV channels has morphed into opinion pieces. The days are gone when the facts are read to us and we are left to evaluate what we have just heard. For the majority of my life I have watched and listened to TV news, this ended about three years ago. I now get my news online. Serious filters are required here too.

    Everyone has a narrative. Unfortunately most have no comprehension thinking outside the bubble of the BBC or Sky news. Prime example the war in Ukraine.

    Work it out for yourself. The information is there and you seem intelligent. Go with the analogy of there's always two sides to every story. And neither on their own tell the full story.

    So you say the news is a bubble, but then won’t help people to get out of that “bubble”

    okay.

    It's your choice as free member of society. Choose to read and believe what you want. I only post my opinion on here, not for me to force that view on to anyone else. Seek your own 'truth'.

    Nope he's not. Debate about a subject doesn't devolve to “do your own research”. As soon as anyone says that, it’s disregarded as conspiracy. I asked for rogered tarts research, he gives none.

    It stinks of covid conspiracies. Imagine trying to justify a country invading another. Under a few circumstances can that be justified and Russia hasnt met one.
