When Fox News and News Max neocons are in line with msm telling us we should fear Xi consolidation of power I not only question the narrative, I feel safe rejecting it.
They balked at Trump calling it the China virus are now blaming Xi for covid.
Red flags like this should get your attention.
Just because an idiot or liar says the sky is blue doesn't make it some other color. Xi is just another Communist dictator consolidating power.
if you say so. time will tell.
I think it's really important to avoid being simply contrarian. Even people you or I may disagree with are sometimes correct. Everything I've seen indicates Xi is yet anther Communist dictator, and one who wants the CCP to rule the world.
..ackchually, I was being dismissive. Like you were when you relied on the appeal to authority fallacy of "everything I've read says..".
When I say "My research indicates" I might be wrong, but it's not a logical fallacy.
