  • I recently looked into this on another forum where someone shared some articles supposedly proving bias. One article was itself highly biased to the right, so not particularly credible.

    The other article, from an organization that ranked the bias of news sources, was very neutral and objective, took accusations of bias seriously, went into detail, and removed the “unbiased” classification from Wikipedia, but didn’t conclude any provable bias, leaving it unranked. The best example of bias they had was the fact that articles on socialism and communism didn’t list Soviet atrocities, but those atrocities have their own pages and are also mentioned on pages of the countries involved, so that was not a great example.

    All these accusations are just the result of a massive right-wing campaign against facts and reality-based reporting. Everything that doesn’t follow their propaganda is biased, according to them.









  • Yeah, but people with more expensive cars than that are still likely millionaires. I’ve been thinking of buying a boat for years, but that boat would still be a lot smaller than these. (And I still haven’t because it’s not just the purchase, but also maintenance and mooring.)

    Although friends of us do have a boat that might be that size. They also live on a houseboat. They don’t have a regular house, and if they have a car, I haven’t seen it.

    So I guess middle class people can own a boat like that, but it takes sacrifices in other areas.
