Goddamn. How someone with such low reading comprehension can be arguing about journalism is beyond me. Holy shit.
SHOULD. SHOULD. SHOULD.
I never said they should be killed. Fucking Christ. What I am saying is that they should not have the protections you think they should.
If I go out and start twerking on the front line for tiktok and claim I'm a journalist, should I be protected? Should the enemy adjust fire so as not to hit me? Cause if that's the case, I have a great post for c/noncredibledefense. Fucking hell. A propagandist is not a journalist. They do not get the same protections. Yes, if they are shot and killed while spreading lies, they brought it on themselves. They could have stayed in their studio and done the same. I do not mourn the liars on the front lines.
That isn't up for discussion. I concede. You can read. You just can't read well.
Nope, the fact that you keep putting words in my mouth and assuming they are what I really mean are why I think you have low reading comprehension. It could just be malicious trolling, but I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt.
Again, with the reading comprehension (malicious trolling). PROPAGANDISTS are not members of the press, bucko. That's the binary of it all, if that's what you want. Are you publishing the facts of the conflict? Yes: Journalist. No: Propagandist. Boom. Binary. Happy now?
Says the guy who wants things in binary groupings. Welcome to binary, where column A and column B are all you get, and they are defined by pedants.
Hey, we agree on something! You are right, I do know exactly what you are saying. You are saying anyone with access to a laser jet and a PNG of a press pass gets godmode on the battlefield, isn't that true? Doesn't matter what you say, as long as you claim to be a journalist, you get carte blanche?
Tell me, who gets to say what a journalist is or isn't? Who sets the definition? If it's me, then we already know my answer: Propagandists aren't journalists. If it's you, though, you seem to give a much broader definition of what journalism is. Correct me if I'm wrong (I'd hate to put words in your mouth) but you believe that journalists are anyone.
That's it.
Did you expect more to that definition? Because you haven't given any more. You seem to believe that anyone can be a journalist, report whatever they decide is worth reporting regardless of fact, and they are protected.
Am I getting it right here? Again, I'd hate to put words in your mouth.
That isn't journalism. That is the death of journalism. That is why we have clickbait headlines and PPW articles. Please, just... fucking stop. You have proven time and time again that you are willing to argue from a poor position and do nothing to actually back up your statements with any worth. You are bad at what you are trying to do, whatever that may be, and everything you say is just going to be shoved back in your face because I get off on it. I love telling you how wrong you are. I wring the cum out of my cock with a fervor that few have ever known every time I tell you how completely empty your argument is. So, there you go. You can help me cum again by continuing your terrible arguments, or you can find something else to do, and I'll just go back to pictures of dead propagandists. Either way, I've got a long night ahead of me, it's just up to you how big a role you want to play in it, chief.
Why do people leave responses saying they didn't read something and/or are blocking someone. What's the point?
Hold on, I'm cumming.
