I don’t participate in their comments sections. I don’t know how to lock down an identity securely enough to do that without personal repercussion, and I don’t know how to participate in a forum without giving out enough personal information about myself that someone really motivated - like the assholes there - couldn’t go after me. I also don’t see that given the environment I would have much impact. I have considered it but think it is too risky.
The articles are very strange. There is a circular logic to them that is hard to pin down. It’s useful to see what is being said over there.
I try to be open minded that there is information that is not being shared on the liberal side of the fence that needs to be considered, but when I look at their site it seems like it’s red meat to people who want to hurt women and minorities while pretending they are protecting them. There is always some “good” black person or “good” woman that they are posting a story about that everyone is fawning over, and then at the same time several stories about terrorists and Muslims. Maybe I just don’t have the right attitude to wade through it all to find whatever might be true or really useful. It seems manipulative. I don’t mind the WSJ for a more conservative look at the world; it’s factual. Breitbart is pseudofactual. It gives the appearance of fact but is a pretense of journalism.
