this is why i start my news day with the BBC world service then bounce around to see whats being covered or Not .. Most conservatives think anyone who doesn't agree with them must be watching MSNBC the Fox equivalent . as their only source of news ... and any link from any other actual news source other than fox is labeled as Fake News ..
Rational people can not make inroads with people who's Ideas of the world are boxed off from the reality around them.. and validlated by Trump for a vote Lie or truth whatever works thats his motto

I feel like ever since Trump took over CNN has become the Fox equivalent, and intentionally at that.

Fox repeatedly refers solely to all of this as riots and looting. Sole reference to the word “protest” is in the link to the story about how protestors tried to prevent a child from being rescued
Wake. Up.
You’re being used as a pawn. And it’s getting harder and harder to recognize it. You need the people around you to help recognize your own unconscious bias, take a moment and imagine that the person you think is a s%#tstick on this forum might actually be right, even if just a little bit. You might be surprised at what kind of doors it opens.

Lol, I’m sorry, I didn’t even think about that/notice it/check it when I wrote this. It was intended to represent the only thing they seem to have in common is security. I promise I wouldn’t go that low on you given all you do to connect us as a community. That’d be some harsh s$&t right there.
That being said, if you’d ever like some help getting that set up, I’d be happy to see if my assistance makes some kind of difference. Now that you’ve brought it up I’m just staring at the triangle in my Chrome browser address bar
