12yearplan,Have i ever suggested, even in some tiny way, the board is perfect? NO.

"Very true B4, basic critical thinking exercise. Don't look at a news item for the content but for why it is there. In your example
a distraction. [Like Mr Fuagf does.. lol, had to say that before he got all excited that the board is incomplete or biased in some way ;]."

So you shouldn't suggest i have. Of course the board is biased. Everybody everywhere is.

And i'm not sure if you above are saying i use distraction as a tactic, or not. Hope you can clarify what you meant there.

Don't look at a news item for the content but for why it is there.

DO look at content. Reasonable people can argue about text, soundness of arguments, support for premises.

Intent, agenda? That's in the mind of the reader and can be comprised of the reader's biases, prejudices, pre-conceived notions, conspiracy theories and critical thinking deficiencies, especially conclusion jumping and bothsidesisms.

So it may seem as two people are not reading the same f'ing thing.
