    I know, you can't divorce discussion from reality.
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

      Good grief. Yeah, we used to execute traitors. Real ones, that is.

      He is behaving like a mob boss, not a POTUS.

        Come on, falafel. Can we elevate the tone of this discussion a bit?

          Bloody hell, I seriously doubt we can.

            Then maybe they could just simply say, Babylon Bee is a satire site and leave it at that. It isn't rocket science, after all.

              As a completely unrelated topic, not bringing any new insight to the converstaion, this whataboutism is on par with Ted's level. Bravo.
              Um, the comment of mine you quote above came a full 5 days after you confirmed that allegations were enough for you. Now today you claim that that was TIC based on a comment I made 5 days after your claimed TIC comment. Either you are prescient, or you are desperately trying to cover your tracks.

                Because it makes them a joke of a fact checker if they cannot even tell an attempt at real journalism and satire.

                        Sometimes just telling people that something is satire doesn't convince them. You actually have to show them the evidence that the piece is wrong. If you are not aware of this, you probably don't have a facebook account.

                          ... and if you find bald Trump claims on Twitter to be more factual and persuasive than an annotated article on Snopes, then any discussion is probably a waste of time anyway.

                              Okay, for the sake of argument, lets assume you are correct....you probably would want to call out the fact that they are a satirical publication and then work from there, rather than treat it as you would any other credible attempt at journalism. It looks foolish on you later when people mock you and then you claim that you were only doing this for those who could not clearly discern the truth.

                                That's what you get for thinking it makes sense to try to ground such discussion in reality.
