    I'm looking for the integrity source that you spoke about previously. We all know that Fox News is a propaganda/entertainment media outlet.

    Sadly still true today.

    These words were from President Harry Truman in 1952.

    Truman then specifically targeted powerful Republican Senator Robert Taft, who had said that the biggest danger facing the country was “creeping socialism” promoted by the Democrats.Truman shot back at Taft and Ike with:

    “Socialism is a scare word they have hurled at every advance the people have made in the last 20 years.

    Socialism is what they called public power.

    Socialism is what they called social security.

    Socialism is what they called farm price supports.

    Socialism is what they called bank deposit insurance.

    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

    Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

    When the Republican candidate inscribes the slogan ‘Down With Socialism’ on the banner of his ‘great crusade,’ that is really not what he means at all.

    What he really means is, ‘Down with Progress — down with Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal,’ and ‘down with Harry Truman’s Fair Deal.’ That is what he means”

    The slogan or the self-avowed marxist group that donates its time, money, and resources to the left?

    So I can do anything violent I want to, as long as I don't kill people. It's ok right?

    Critical thinking is lacking in this post.

    So you're saying only 10,800 people died as a direct result of COVID. So, who cares.

    So then, the other 170,000 people who died had COVID plus something else. So, who cares.

    I don't get your logic. Do you?
