Right-wing media uses terms like 'minor attracted person' to target, marginalize, and slander the LGBTQ+ community.

I'm not sure where I come down on this necessarily because I haven't done enough looking into it to feel confident either way, but I do know that there's a very concerted effort on the part of the right-wing media to use terms like minor attracted person to argue that society is trying to mainstream child exploitation and that it's being adopted by the LGBTQ plus community. This is obviously just a means to target, marginalize, and slander the LGBTQ plus community.

That's just a narrative that was concocted by the right-wing media to demonize trans people. And it was very easy for them to do that, too, because Chappelle himself kind of helped.

Violating anonymity agreements validates alt-right narratives that the New York Times is a weapon against the American people.

In that circumstance, if the New York Times were to name this person after there was an agreement that it was anonymous, all you would do is verify every single narrative of... The New York Times is their CHICOM globalist weapon systems against the American people.

Alex Jones simplifies complex political narratives to make them easily consumable, which leads people to incorrectly assume his simplified version is correct.

It's a complex system and a lot of people, if not most people, despise complexity. So whenever an idiot like Alex Jones turns that into a very simple narrative, they feel like, well... If this guy can condense it down into a simple narrative that I can consume, that means he must be correct.

No, I mean, anytime a right-winger tells me one of those anecdotes, if you look into it for a second, if you just Google it, all of a sudden you start finding shit where you're like, oh, no, this wasn't that. You think it's this, but in reality.
