Search Results: how could he lie

Just when the mass media could stoop any lower they managed to find a shovel and started digging again on this new monumental f*ck up: initially reporting that Israel bombed a hospital in Gaza which killed over 500 people.

This was later proven false by:

• US intelligence
• Radar proving Hamas misfired a rocket
• Intelligence recordings of Hamas militants admitting they misfired a missile
• Pictures showing the middle landed on a parking lot not a hospital. No way it claimed 500+ lives.

So why the f**k is mass media outlets like the NYT and Reuters taking Hamas’ word for face value and publishing headlines about it? Hamas is a proven terror organization that habitually lies to the citizens it oppresses and the outside world. How could the mass media use them as a “trusted” source. It’s beyond disgusting.

But their sickening malfeasance has real world consequences. This sparked outrage worldwide including riots which was all based on a lie. They have changed their headlines but have yet (or likely never will) own up to this atrocity.

It’s one thing if the media gets in wrong by conflicting sources. But trusting a terrorist organization is beyond negligent: it’s complicity.

When the media gets it this wrong they should held criminally accountable in my opinion.

I met a girl a month ago and last week we entered a relationship. Yesterday I found out she lied about her past. When confronted she made up another lie and after that I had to prove her another time that she was still lying. When I asked her to see the conversations that she lied about she showed me only a bit and denied to show more. I know that the conversations were from before we met. She stated that she was faithful to me the day we met and tbh she never gave me reasons not to thinki so. I was alone all my life and this is my first girlfriend. I can't trust her anymore because I know that when she is confronted with a lie she will still lie. I was thinking about still staying for a few months just not to be alone anymore and to finally be in a relationship because when I met other girls they said that the fact I was never in a relationship is a red flag.

I'm so curious about this. Full disclosure I consider myself a "left facing pragmatist." Which basically means I would be indistinguishable from a "right facing pragmatist" apart from the direction I would like to move in.

But anyway, I'm sure everyone has heard by now of the Israel Palestine conflict. Minutes after the opening salvo pretty much the entire right wing was trying to blame Biden (of course, who else) for giving Iran 6 billion dollars. That was a lie, as the 6 billion to which they refer was actually Iran's own money. But instead of backing off the doubled down and insisted that being able to use 6 billion for one thing freed up 6 billion for attacks. So naturally it is now being reported that Iran never got the monet and in fact it's being frozen.

Don't right wingers feel even a little bit mad that they were lied to? And to be fair the outrage may very well be part of the reason Biden thought to have the 6 billion frozen, but that could have been brought to his attention without lies. Because it seems the reason for the lies is because the benefit is it increases the chance of scoring political crits but the cost is nonexistent because right wing voters don't hold their liars accountable..
