    Have you seen the volume of this shit? It’s the quantity of the same rehashed narrative that is pissing me off.

      That’s just journalism in the internet age. Its a pile on for clicks. However, they still make a good point, in a slightly indifferent way, updated for the most current information.

      Your comment did neither, so should we consider you astroturfing?

          Yep, but usually in a discussion the whole point is for you to express your view in a way that makes it clear, rather than leaving it up to me to decide. Your perogative.

              No, you used rhetorical questions, which leave interpretation up to the reader and are not a statement by design.

              Language is hard. Being a good person is harder. Making an effective point is tricky too. You’ll need to work on them all.

              Your point wasn’t very u clear. Worse than that. It was dull.

                That is about as clear as it gets.

                  That is not your original comment. That is 3 comments deep, 2 for you, lol.

                  Again, you missed the point about there being similar articles for a popular news story and that this one was updated with the latest information, therefore relevant.

                  Your comment was neither incisive nor helpful. Your commenting is neither friendly nor understanding. Nor do you seek to learn, so I wonder why you even bother to comment. Your comments are the same detritus you complain about.

                    “Nether incisive nor helpful” / “Friendly nor understanding”

                    Neutral is the word you should be using. Zero emotion. There is nothing I could say that would make you change your opinion, and vice versa.

                    On that, you were looking too deep into all of this. After that last paragraph of what seems to be insults, I really don’t care about your opinion now.

      It’s the quantity of the same rehashed narrative that is pissing me off.

      And that must mean that there’s a conspiiiiiiiracy to make Biden look bad? That it’s astroturf? No. People are noticing that all “he’s fine! he just has a stutter/a cold/jet lag/etc” narrative that the party has been going with was utter garbage. Biden keeps saying shit that makes him look unwell. The press runs with shit like that and always has. Quayle’s potato. Dean’s scream. Bill Clinton’s blowie. GWB’s mission accomplished banner. GHWB’s “read my lips” speech.

      The press isn’t Biden’s PR flack squad. Biden fucked up, and the party fucked up by trying to keep everyone from knowing what is now undeniable.
