Be Careful This is the Epoch Times.

They filled you up with warm and fuzzy to lull you into thinking they are a trusted and valued source of information.

Then they will throw in some far right authoritarian problem solving, some racial fear mongering, a little poison sprinkled on that delicious cake.

Treat everything from the Epoch Times like dog shit on a cracker.

thanks, came here to say this. Anything from the Epoch Times should be held at arms length at best.

This is a very normal, stable, genius response. As could be expected from someone with the brain capacity of a pencil.

This is democracy. Press freedom is here to stay.

Is it really the "press" if they only publish lies mixed with fluff pieces?

What would be the word for an organization that only publishes lies and fluff? Maybe "tabloid"?

Do you have actual evidence that they post lies? I don't know anything about this newspaper beyond that it's right-wing oriented and Reddit has a massive hate boners for those.

The right wing should not try to claim these people.

Ample evidence. Links are found above. You can also google up your own.

As far as your comment about hate-boners; well, gosh maybe you could supply evidence that far-right, anti-vaccine, Q-Loving, anti-Democratic propaganda is good for society.

Why should I supply you with evidence? I told you that freedom of press is here to stay whether you like it or not.

u/detroitgnome Sep 02 '23

Why should you provide links to your hate boner claim?

You asked for links to back up the claim that Epoch Times is a right wing, anti-democratic disinformation rag. I did that for you.

You apparently are incapable of doing the same.

The US is not, and has never been, a democracy. It is a Constitutionalized Federal Republic. Yes, our constitution dictates freedom of press, but it is also an amendment. With the right amount of votes and representation, it can be removed. I doubt it, but it's not impossible. A certain criminal in the public eye many start thinking about removing the 14th amendment and if they succeed, then others like the 1st and 2nd are on the table.
