Exactly. Infowars can be wrong 100 times as long as they’re right once and the MSM is wrong that same time.

Pretty sure Alex Jones never worked for Donald Trump in any capacity.

To be antiglobalist often included being anti-mainstream media, anti-immigration, anti-science, anti-U.S. government, and anti-European Union,” Starbird says.



Gross overgeneralization. Extremely broad label.


To them:

Not wanting manufacturing jobs shipped overseas, or if you dont want open borders = anti-globalist.


Anti-mainstream media = what exactly? Not religiously soaking up every word of the NYT, WaPo, HuffPo,Vice, Vox, or trash sites like Slate or Mother Jones?


"anti-science", because maybe someone doesn't agree with one particular interpretation of scientific data, or how we should go about acting on the data? I bet there are "63 genders" type people who probably classify themselves as pro-science.



"anti-U.S. government" ? Thats antifa and most of the left. The left is clearly the only ones with the anti-US.

Now if they said "anti-government", that would mean something else entirely.

Did we read different articles?


Sorry I only read what was originally quoted in the OP. Which is a similar topic, right?

How many of us are influenced by the headline or the posted title/quoted parts. Just look at Reddit. Users submit news articles with their own interpretation of the story and thousands of comments are posted that reveal no one clicked the link.

Unbelievable article written by an ingnorant individual. CNN, msnbc, abc and the bunch do just as much damage probably more than an infowars, breitbart.
