Wait...WHAT? Fox News Is 25 Years Old This Week, and Congress Is Shitting A Brick Over...

[TrollBuster9090]

...FACEBOOK spreading hatred and misinformation?

We've had a good 15 years of research showing Fox News consistently dumbs down their audience, misinforms and deliberately misleads them for the sake of making money, and keeping a political party that favours plutocrats in power. And they probably have INTERNAL data that shows that as well. They certainly have no shortage of WHISTLEBLOWERS who say the same thing after leaving the network.

So, naturally, Congress just HAS to go after FACEBOOK for being just like Fox?

Why..that would be as ridiculous as Congress going after VAPING while leaving the cigarette industry alone! Oh wait.

Um...okay, bad example. Let's say that would be like Congress regulating LAWN DARTS while leaving semi-automatic assault rifles alone!

Alright, I got it... That would be like going after POT while leaving BOOZE alone!

...Okay...gimme a minute here...

8. Congress is full of weak-minded and phony people.

What was that great line "Politics is Hollywood for ugly people. ". Oh yea, they're greedy jerks too.
