    The subtitle:

    White farmers filed lawsuits to block a debt forgiveness initiative, but the Biden administration is still bearing the blame.

    Is this post implying that the New York Times is creating a narrative. It sounds more like they are reporting on the fact that black Georgia farmers aren’t supporting Biden when they should.

      “Black Farmers Should Be Supporting Biden, But they’re Not Because of RepubliQan Fuckery” is an accurate title. “Black Farmers Are Mad At Biden” is not an accurate title.

      The NYT is keenly aware of the difference. One of them creates the narrative that Biden is losing the black vote for the purpose of separating Biden from the black vote and one of them is accurate.

        Good thing “Black Farmers Are Mad At Biden” was not even close to the title…

              Fair enough. I have no doubt more examples are pouring out of the NYT even now.

                I’m sure you do, but for some reason you attached yourself to a bad example.

                  …and for NO reason, you’ve decided to take it upon yourself to defend the fucking NYT. Why?!? Are you just a Trumper, reveling in their duplicity, or are you a moron?

                    If you want to bash the NYT, have at it, but don’t do it with the WRONG STORY. That just makes you and everybody with similar opinions (which likely includes me) look dumb. And it makes the NYT look right; completely undermining whatever your goal was.
