This is how you get Transgenderism, Minor Attracted Persons, and eventually Wrong Think Camps.

Defund NPR today...



My truth, your truth, everywhere a truth, truth...

NPR still exists? Well, at least they've got that going for them.

Don't forget "truthiness" and "alternative facts."

This is the CEO of NPR?

NPR is more interested in fantasy than truth.

To the progressive left, "disinformation" is counter-narrative. Fact, truth, data, scientific methodology are all irrelevant. In their post modernist world, you start with the narrative you want or need and back fill with confirmation bias and even propaganda and deception if necessary, because useful narrative comes first, above all other considerations, even if it is in gross and destructive error.

This was a great comment.

The whole "I'm telling my truth". They really think "truth" is not facts, but facts also incorporated with your "lived experience".

They are trying to lead people to believe that there exist multiple versions of the truth, except if it's not the DNC approved "truth", then it's "disinformation", and needs to be censored.


Quote:

The problem with the current state of journalism, "The Science," and political discourse in one brief clip. Watch the whole thing - it perfectly illustrates the mess we're in.
"We acknowledge there are many different truths...the truth exists for you and probably for the person sitting next to you, but this may not be the same truth."
"The truth of the matter is very often ... what happens when we merge facts about the world with our beliefs about the world. So we all have different truths."
They openly admit that their worldview isn't grounded in reality and that everyone needs to be indoctrinated persistently in order to think the right way.

George Orwell hit it on the head.

She has cooperated directly in censorship operations with the CIA/government agencies/GDI.





I was hoping someone would start a separate thread about this. Thx OP.

Somewhat nice looking woman until she opens her mouth. Then, you can't get much uglier.

This is to be expected, right? Libs live in their own reality. Multiple realities sometimes.

Yet she is still there. NPR is not going to fire her. Not a single dime of taxpayer money should fund it.

It's ironic that no truer words have been spoken. She just highlight the lefts most fundamental world view.
Liberals do not care about truth. Their "truth" is that which advances their agenda.

As an explainer, the blob/Maher support a middleware now as they lost the fight for a top level federal disinformation censor, for now.







Ideally this is implemented on an international level, hence the swamp is trying to coordinate a flanking maneuver via Brazil/Europe.

Yeah, that pesky 1A really got in the way when an editor took to another platform and called them out. Won't be hearing from him anymore.

The Dem's love funding their propaganda arm, and defunding it federally is another one of those low information 3rd rails that Republicans can't touch.

She flat out calls the First Ammendment a "challenge".

That tells you all you need to know about this woman, and any organization she is involved with should be immediately suspect of censorship and manipulation.

And her blatherings about truth sound like a bad philosophy professor trying to confuse and screw up her student's minds. All that "truth is relative" and "there is no absolute truth" or "truth may mean one thing to you and something else to another" is a lie straight from the pit of hell.

This woman shouldn't be anywhere near a government funded entity that disseminates news to the general public.

Psychopaths is probably a bit more accurate. Manipulative and detached from empathy. Supremely selfish and narcissistic. Sociopaths can be psychopaths but they are violent or offensive snd cause conflict and harm. A psychopath may also be much more subtle and manipulative. 2-3% of the population are psychopathic personalities. Some of course more moderate than others.

My contention for some time is that certain ideological systems effectively gather and elevate or promote psychopaths, or essentially create them from otherwise not clinically psychopathic individuals by taking other personality traits and manipulating them to achieve psychopathic behaviors in compliance with the ideological system.

For example, certain belief systems that make virtues of vices or sociopathic behaviors when done in advancement of the ideology, such as promoting and making virtue of hatred, oppression, and violence against nonbelievers or dissenters.

The 100% accurately predicted behavior of collectivist fascism

Quote:

What are the stars?' said O'Brien indifferently. 'They are bits of fire a few kilometres away. We could reach them if we wanted to. Or we could blot them out. The earth is the centre of the universe. The sun and the stars go round it.'

Winston made another convulsive movement. This time he did not say anything. O'Brien continued as though answering a spoken objection:

'For certain purposes, of course, that is not true. When we navigate the ocean, or when we predict an eclipse, we often find it convenient to assume that the earth goes round the sun and that the stars are millions upon millions of kilometres away. But what of it? Do you suppose it is beyond us to produce a dual system of astronomy? The stars can be near or distant, according as we need them. Do you suppose our mathematicians are unequal to that? Have you forgotten doublethink?

In all honesty, IF, if she gets booted, she wouldn't be awful to look at, in the kitchen making sammiches, which is about the only she should be allowed to do with that mush of a scrambled brain ;-)

Why? They have zero shame. I do not accept that she is embarrassed.

The leftist who called them out as biased has now resigned, but heaped praise on the organization as he is actually a loyal communist party member, on his way out (he just took the criticism of himself personally, being a feelings-first person). The member stations/board won't demand her resignation, and have no interest in changing their role as communist narrative builders/enforcers.

There can be utility in the finite uses of what she says in the first video. Let's say we're building a car, and a structural part keeps failing. The engineers blame the manufacturing team. The manufacturing team blames the engineers. Finding the ultimate truth of the error might be secondary to finding a fix to the problem now, and having the teams blaming each other might delay solving the problem.

The bigger concern is when the problem itself is created by one side, then it uses the "problem" to force a solution. Expecting one side to ignore the truth there could be catastrophic.

Pragmatism exemplified.

This bad philosophy that enables a person to have a "my truth" ideology that ignores reality is ridiculous.

This is a person who fundamentally either doesn't understand or is straight up opposed to western thought.
