Interesting concept - individuals can determine right and wrong. A bit moral relativistic, no?
Time yourself waiving a rainbow flag outside an evangelical church before you're told you're wrong.



Nevertheless, it's academic for us, I certainly don't employ anyone, and AFAIK, you're not in the unenviable position to decide on these exemption claims.

Yes. Of course individual can determine right and wrong. And morality based on spiritual/faith/religion is indeed relative to the belief. One can stand outside an evangelical church with a rainbow flag and I know what will happen. Same person could stand outside a different church and something completely different would happen. Try going to some countries and tell them you wipe your ass with your right hand. See hiw they react to you.

Morals are culturally, spiritually, and philosophically derived. That’s not to say there aren’t universal morals. Not many though. Most are based on deeply personal beliefs no matter how those beliefs were derived. So yes. Of course this issue is a matter of personal belief, but especially those derived from spirituality especially are.

What cnn says is right or wrong

So here's the danger - You can get stuck thinking, "other people are swayed and influenced by the bias of the MSM, but I'm OK because I get my news from [insert favorite]; I'm smart and can't be fooled."


The fact is we're all influenced by the media we consume, books we read, and the people we listen to (which includes a man froma pulpit on Sunday for some of us).

 

[jamil]

Also, I was just pointing out that I wouldn’t trust AP as a source of fact checking.


They may be right in this instance, but they’re hardly credible enough to be a ‘fact check’ go to. I’d trust the Babylon bee before I trusted ap or wapo.

I’ve caught the AP lying in fact-checks before. And I’m not really referring to you but those who post stuff from some of these sites. They should fact check that stuff and when they’re caught lying, people should push back. It’s bad enough that corporate press lies to us. But sites pretending to be on our side while lying to us are far worse.

I’d argue “all yall”, but that’s me.

 

[Alpo]

Fact check and ap don’t belong in the same sentence

I think you are confusing AP with Gateway Pundit, Infowars, Breitbart and Prager U. Even if you believe them wrong, a reasonable person would at least see what they've printed. But, go ahead and stand on your confirmation bias.

Up here in Canada we don't know what that means.

 

[Alpo]

Meh. I didn’t click the link and I didn’t care either way, honestly. What Japan does makes no difference to me. I’m worried about what happens here.

So, just a cynical dig regardless of facts?

It’s confirmation bias to point out a sources lack of credibility? I didn’t suggest a source to use. I just pointed out that AP isn’t credible. If you’re so insulted by that, maybe you’re suffering from confirmation bias?

You like using keywords don’t you? Whataboutism. Confirmation bias. What others am I missing?

Isn't this......confirmation bias?

Again, not sure why you took it as an insult to point out ap isn’t a credible source... and definitely not a valid fact checker... but I can’t help if you’re offended by calling ******** ********.

Not always, but how many Pulitzers has AP won? I'll tell you: over 50. So, despite your unwillingness to read what they've said, and despite your not caring about Japan, you question the reputation of AP, with some silly comment to impugn their accuracy when it's provable that the Ivermectin Cure in Japan is nonsense.

Did you bother to check 2nd News who published the Japan is on Ivermectin article?

 

[jamil]

Up here in Canada we don't know what that means.

It means “you guys”

No, AP is **** too. Corporate media pushes corporate narratives.

You’re trying to speak from authority by using their past awards as an indicator they’re credible.

Peyton Manning has how many mvp awards? Guess what, he wouldn’t win another one today. Past success does nothing to prove credibility today.

Again. I don’t care about Japan. I was making a statement, a factual statement, that AP isn’t a reliable fact checker. Just because the information of this particular instance were correct does not make the reliable on other issues. If you believe they are, more power to ya, but they’ve been caught being intentionally deceitful many times before.

 

[Alpo]

Isn't this......confirmation bias?

Nah. Those sources for the right have been repeatedly proven to print trash.

 

[Alpo]

You’re trying to speak from authority by using their past awards as an indicator they’re credible.

Yes. I've shown that they are an acknowledged reputable news bureau. That is authoritative. Your comment is not.

 

[Hatin Since 87]

Prove it. Cite facts that show their consistent abuse of the truth. Show us.

The fact you can’t even admit they have and do says it all.

I feel as if I'm speaking with someone whose primary language might not be English......

Does your technique work well in Latvia?
