Going through every excuse of why a man killed 10 black people. Could it be a hate crime? Uh does the fact he wrote the N word on his rifle give it away? Or do you need more proof? Fuck the MSM.

(8,809 posts)so far all the coverage I've seen ( cnn msnbc) are clearly calling him a racist white supremacist. On MSNBC Kavanaugh was very agitated about the threat that white supremacists represent to our society and not mincing his words neither were the other guests/hosts. Same on CNN.

(20,053 posts)Real MSM at least still differentiates between reporting and commentary. On cable they deliberately blur the line to be dramatic. It's PSYOPS for ratings.
Don't tell me how I need to think, or what I need to be outraged over. I consume news to educate myself to be up to date on world events. Then I form my thoughts and decide if and when I'm outraged, concerned, sad or any other myriad of feelings.
Sorry, it's a sore spot for me. /rant

Every outlet Ive read or seen has been discussing this as a racist act of hate from the moment of the crime.
I dont access any rw outlets however.
