The headline story was about hardships American Indians - now in their 70's and 80's - had in boarding schools when they were younger. This was in the front/main section. I checked out the rest of the section, checking every headline. Not one story about Hunter Biden, Biden conruption, etc.

I realize this is stating the obvious, but no wonder the liberals are so ignorant about current events. They don't hear or read of lots of things going on in the country and the world.

How can you even argue a point when the other party has no idea of what you are discussing?

I call the media Ministry of Truth.

It is all propaganda all the time.

It’s hard to believe it can be this bad.

If Liberals and Democrats don’t see it on social media like Tik Tok on their phones, THEY DON’T KNOW JACK.

Come to think of it, what they see on their phones is crap, so that explains why they still DON’T KNOW JACK.

I have the WP in my house. I acquired piles of them to start fires in my wood burning stove.

So true. Liberals think we are making things up. They have no idea of their side’s scandals. They just think Trump is a Nazi. We cannot win in this environment.

Stopped reading NY Times and WaPo 20 years ago

For me, randomly seeing a copy now is like seeing news and opinion from another dimension, or hearing about the worldview of some heretofore unknown tribe in the Amazon

I am actually having discussions with people who use the Washington Post (and even an article by Philip Bump) to support their contentions.

One of them was a real jackwad, but the other Freeper seems like he might want to understand the truth of an issue.

But we do have those people here.

The thing is, it is nearly impossible to have a discussion with Lefties.

They don’t want to discuss or argue. They subscribe to Leftist dogma.

I worked with a woman some years ago who was a real Lefty, and she knew I was a conservative, but...we got along well, which was good, because we had to work closely.

We went out to dinner one night, and she asked me why I was a Conservative. I asked if she really wanted to know and was willing to listen, and when she said yes, I told her.

When I was done, she said that I sounded like I had thought it all out, which was true.

She is one of the sharpest and most intelligent persons I know, and she was smart enough to actually listen.

But I don’t think that is the case with most of them.

I hear you but how many of those indoctrinated souls have a newspaper subscription? I’m in my 50s at do not have a newspaper subscription, it’s day old news.
The younger folk, having such a short attention span can only withstand about a minute of audio or video before they tune out and are on to something else. The internet of things caused this.

Many of the same people who read the Washington Post also read the New York Times, watch the legacy media, MSNBC and CNN and listen to NPR. They truly believe that they are extremely well informed.

In actuality, they are reading the same propaganda over and over. One of these outlets reports that “somebody says “..…“ “. Then all of the others report, “according to the Washington Post, “ ….” “. Thus they make it sound like a complete fabrication is a fact. Soon other outlets pick it up and do not even include the “according to the Washington Post” part. A complete fabrication lives forever on the Internet as a fact. No one has told a legal lie to be held accountable for it.

The (com)Post represents the Federal trough. That’s its market, its equity, its constituents, and its purpose.

The Compost is simply obeying their motto:

“Democracy Dies in Darkness”

A long time ago, when I was in the third grade, we lived near Washington and my parents took The Washington Post. I liked it because there were 4 pages of comics every day. I think that was the only part of the paper I read.

I don't know how many comics they carry now but I doubt it is 4 pages' worth.
