Bias is not a bad thing. Bias simply means preference. Bias means lean, as in I’m leaning toward one side or another. Everybody has bias: the goal of science is to remove as much bias as possible while understanding it’s impossible to do entirely.

What we do here, I realized one day scrolling through the endless thread, is akin to intelligence analysis, a huge portion of which is conducted on open sources. We are limited to open sources, but we read, we make connections, certain things make us go hmmm... We try to be as objective as we can, but still, my bias won’t even allow me to go to the leftists sites to see what they’re saying - it makes me sick to my stomach, reading them plotting and scheming on what they’re going to do to us if they get power back. So I’m limited, but I realize that and try not to lean too far in one direction but to keep an open mind. A lot of that boils down to suspending my anger and disbelief when Dear Leader does something that seems inexplicable, and remembering how incredibly much goes on that we don’t have a clue about. Yet.

Good points. Try to remind yourself that YOU (individually) are supporting the Rule of Law and the US Constitution.

[They] The leftist sites/twankers/pundits are working to undermine the Rule of Law and the US Constitution.

You have a lot of company.

Bias is Taught, or Experienced. Big MEDIA and EDUCATION have a lot to do with the teaching of it.

It is astonishing that no Republican ever has reclaiming academia and Education on their Campaign platform, for calling out Marxism.

Therefore, the USA seems to be “Experiencing” the rise of MARX.

PS: Where is that doofuss donor, who is heads the US DEPT of ED. Could her profile be any lower and she still actually exist?

Heck, I can’t even think of her name. (She seems to get a free ride, on the back of her brother’s accomplishments > Eric PRINCE.
