The mainstream media coverage of the House Oversight Committee's investigation into potential criminal dealings of President Biden's family is – I hope you're sitting down – ridiculously biased.

It should come as no surprise, since this is the same mainstream media that willfully interfered with the 2020 election by suppressing the story about Hunter's laptop, scoffing at it as "disinformation." Of course, we know now beyond a doubt that the laptop story, along with many others over the past few years, were not just crazy conspiracy theories but were, in fact, true.

I won't go too deeply into the weeds on the investigation, as it's still ongoing, and I'd like to see all the facts before we present them. This article is about the media. It's about how they paint a picture for the general public to try and create their own version of "the truth." It's about the official narrative, the one that will go down in history unless other people tell a different version – the one that is based on the facts we're learning as opposed to wishful thinking and manipulation.

First, how dare you have a different opinion?

What this article is about is the establishment downplaying inconvenient truths and gaslighting those of us who question their version of the facts. Anyone who doesn't go along with their ridiculous bias is considered:

Far-right

A conspiracy theorist

A racist or another flavor of bigot

Extreme MAGA (whatever that means)

A fascist

I have to say, fascists who don't believe in the right to form one's own opinion calling me a fascist for questioning the questionable is the one that most makes me shake my head. Just to help those folks out, here's the actual definition of a fascist from Vocabulary.com(emphasis mine):

A fascist is a follower of a political philosophy characterized by authoritarian views and a strong central government — and no tolerance for opposing opinions.

Of course, this is yet another word that has been hijacked to use as an insult against people who actually have opposing opinions. Most of the folks I know who are now grouped into the category of "fascist" by smug, facially-pierced, visually ambiguous, angry young people are, in fact, just folks who want to be able to exercise their rights to free speech and having views that differ. We want to be able to have discussions, for crying out loud, and we want educational institutions to open real conversations, not shut them down with angry mobs of – dare I say – fascists.

Anyway, I digress. On to the story.
