    Don’t you even listen to the news?

    You mean the shows that try to scare us for profit with stories based on real events?

      Obviously no I don’t mean that. I mean actual credible news sources, not Fox news. Even in die hard red states such as mine, there are unbiased sources of news. And what could qualify as more fake than trying to scare people with stories claiming that people are going to break into your house and rape you if you don’t own a firearm.

        No, there are no unbiased sources of news.

        And what could qualify as more fake than trying to scare people with stories claiming that people are going to break into your house and rape you if you don’t own a firearm.

        I don’t have a news platform, I’m not profiting from instilling this fear in others, I’m not even trying to scare anyone – it’s a personal feeling to which I am entitled.

          Your personal feelings definitely reveal marked cynicism and pessimistic nature. To see everything as biased must be a difficult way to go through life, but unfortunately there are many overly biased people who share your perspective.

            Being naive enough to think unbiased news exists must be bliss.
