    Wow. So you enjoy a reporter getting harassed? This is disgusting behavior.

    Basically anything they disagree with is woke and an excuse for them to harass people based on their warped ideas.

    The irony of all of this is that he's acting like the "woke" they are claiming to attacked. Self-entitled to harass people just trying to do their job.

    Do you not see how the above logic train in your thinking betrays massive bias?

    Not a personal attack by the way at all, an honest question to you.

    Ok, Ill admit.... He did go a little bit too far. And he assumed gender when refering to who she was marrying... He is pretty good at trolling thou, you dont think so?

    What doesn't make sense to me is this.

    He is demonstrating everything you claim to hate about wokeness. If you hate "wokeness" and what it's about - going after people for essentially just living their lives or trying to do their job...how do you look at this and what this guy is doing here - as anything but wokeness completely unchained?

    This is more so what happens when you try and cancel/eliminate a whole group of people in conservatives.

    What did you think would happen when for years you call people racist, anti science, dumb, homephobes, misogynist?

    CNN, Vice. Amongst leaders in planting this narritive, when you declare war on a group of people with lies this is what you get.

    They can do 100's of videos and articles spreading rumors and lies but when someone calls them out on their bs its wrong?

    You think she was there to write a non bias article? She was there on a mission to continue the narritive and lies.

    He's clearly controlled opposition to make conservatives look bad. 0% chance he believes anything he is saying.

    There is no mainstream movement calling conservatives racist anti-science dumb, etc. Not anymore than the effort to label liberals as horrible godless people who hate white men. You have fringe people within any group but this narrative you are constructing is just imagination.

    Vice isn't spreading rumors or lies about conservatives. You may not like their reporting, but there is no narrative. CNN doesn't need to spread lies to unmask what individual conservatives are doing. The conservatives that look dumb are making themselves look dumb, no one is doing it to them. They are not victims and need to stop playing that card. It comes down to taking accountability instead of blaming the big bad liberals.

    You've already judged her. Whether she is there to write whatever article, she was invited their by CPAC not to have someone stalk her and harass her everywhere she goes. She repeatedly says she's there to just do her job. What she does for a living.

    Again, you are either against this stuff or you aren't. You can't say, "ok, well in this case its ok, because we don't like her," and then come back and bamoun people protesting other people while they work.

    She was just there reporting? You are trolling now.... No, all Vice does is spread rumors and lies about conservatives... One reporter, just one search on Tess Owen the reporter "harassed"... Yeah, she should have been warmly welcomed...

    I know some of the folks at Vice from my media days and no, they aren't there to spread lies about conservatives. They may be a liberal rag, but there's nothing there to say their reporting is meant to "troll conservatives" with lies. Are they biased? Yes. They cater to a left audience so of course they are. Are they factual? 100%.

    I see how conservatives rip people apart on the left - even sources like Propublica which wins Pulitzer for it's journalistic work, I know some of their editors. You don't realize this, but you are confusing biased reporting with inaccurate reporting.

    What year did you know folks from Vice? Im sure as hell its not from any less than 5 years ago...

    You think this reporter is just biased and not creating a ficticious world where white people want nature to be a safe space for racists?

    She is literally the woke movement walking. A white women offended at things she knows nothing about and making up lies to justify it.

    This is not about libs vs conservatives. This is about a movement of people destroying our country over feelings and Dems adopting the movement as their mascot....

    I dont feel bad for her, or anyone that fuels the woke movement.

    Your perception doesn't seem to be based on anything real.

    I'm not sure how a fully grown and mature adult could watch this and think it's in any way cool or positive.

    All he did was single out a reporter and insult her over and over again like a 13 year old boy.

    I was expecting, from the title, hard hitting questions that she couldn't refuse to answer but instead, I got "YOU ARE WEARING A MASK HAHAHAHA! YOU ARE A LIBERAL HAHAHAHAH! YOU SUCK!"

    What point did he actually make here? How is this a good look for conservatives?

    You should ask yourself, what makes these stories fake? Have you read them?

    So wait...the headline of this story is...

    "White Nationalists want to reclaim nature as a safe space for racists"

    and you've interpreted it as

    "White people want nature to be a safe space for racists."

    Do you see where the mistake was made here?
