No? I just posted a link to the original Forbes editorial to which you were complaining about.

So you have no problem with the media doing the blacklisting on behalf of the government?

Not enough for the AG to declare that it would effect the outcome.

Not an answer. That’s a dodge. My question was very specific.
How much fraud was there?
Less than 2016.
I see. So we’re playing high/low?

Last election. Definitely less this time. Thanks to President Trump by the way.

DougBH:
" Even during the period of its strictest enforcement, from the late 1940s through to the late 1950s, the blacklist was rarely made explicit or easily verifiable, as it was the result of numerous individual decisions by the studios and was not the result of official legal action. Nevertheless, it quickly and directly damaged or ended the careers and income of scores of individuals working in the film industry."

But they only supported black hearted murderous communist regimes. It’s not like they dared to challenge election results in court.
Oryx:
Widespread voter fraud is a lie. It’s voter-fraud fraud. It wasn’t based on facts, it was a political strategy, and it backfired. If he doesn’t regret it yet, he should.
In your own mind that may well play convincingly as reality. But yours is one limited perspective.

STOP IT.
JUST STOP IT.
You can’t answer how much fraud there was. So you can NOT say it wouldn’t affect the outcome.
And libs seem not to care that there WAS fraud (extend unknown). Irregularities. Inconsistencies.
All of the issues people have raised CAN be addressed and mitigated, but libs seem fine with allowing some level of fraud.

As long as it goes their way they relish it.

So non sequitur.
Congratulations
It’s not a non sequitur if the previous argument is based on a fallacy.

That what I think too, Bro, kind of like paying to use a pay toilet only to break wind.
It appears the media and the big tech oligarchies are running the goobermint.

And I thought the liberals hated those darned corporations…
It’s an article about Kelsey Bolar’s response to an op-ed in Forbes. Your OP was about the op-ed, not Bolar’s response to it, so it seems its better to post the op-ed and come to your own conclusions than have Bolar tell you how to feel about it. Did you even realize the op-ed was specifically about Trump’s press secretaries?
Speaking of cancel culture, did you see this part at the end?
This isn’t cancel culture, which is a societal blight. (There’s surely a nice living for each of these press secretaries on the true-believer circuit.) Nor is this politically motivated, as Forbes ’ pro-entrepreneur, pro-growth worldview has generally placed it in the right-of-center camp over the past century — this standard needs to apply to liars from either party. It’s just a realization that, as Daniel Patrick Moynihan famously said, in a thriving democracy, everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but not their own facts. Our national reset starts there.
So, you can only hold or propagate as true what the ruling oligarchs certify as being factual. You don’t see any downside to that?
