Fensters point still stands though.

Agree with that Beanz. Objectivity seems lost on both sides though. I'm fed up with having to use disclaimers like 'I'm liberal but..' or 'I'm of the left but...' to preempt an assumption that people only put forward a view that supports their agenda/entrenched position. The sad thing is that assumption is true in many cases.

I can see in this thread that for some people its just about agenda, and as you imply, they wouldn't have put up links and videos that didn't support their wider views.

I'm not sure what's worse, people that only put forward a view that supports their wider views/politics, or people that assume that's what everyone does and therefore make people wary of adding weight to a cause they don't believe in:


'I better not defend some kids on an anti-abortion march wearing MAGA hats because I'll be deemed to support those views, as well as all the other views that usually go with those'.

That is pure intellectual-fuckery and both the left and right are equally guilty of it.
