Media that is never critical towards one side is what started all of this. A politician's kryptonite is when their voters find out that they lied or were hypocrites. That is a universal truth.

Single party media outlets like News Corp, Sinclair, Euronews, and so many others have broken that system entirely.

My test to see if someone is a shill/moron is to simply ask them to say one obvious bad thing about "their side." If they cannot, it becomes clear that they are not worth listening to.

What’s the worst thing, in your mind, about “your side”, assuming you have one.

		I grew up in Seattle mostly, some of my policy positions could paint me as a progressive, and they are somewhat "my people." It turns out that progressives are just as easily fooled as any other group, by a slick turn of phrase. For example, "Genocide Joe." I once thought my group was more thoughtful. But, it turns out that ALL of us are easily programmed meat machines. Voted for Obama, he totally messed up with Russia and Crimea. I could go on, and on. Fallibilism, ftw? Can't be sure :)
