    In case you haven’t noticed, most of what the right spends their time talking about is made up bullshit. Sticking to the facts only will naturally exclude most right-wing topics because they’re not based in reality.

      I’m sorry to say that isn’t true. You just have to sift through a lot more trash to find the truth. Read reports of the same event from multiple sources. There are bad actors in the Democratic Party as there are good actors in the Republican Party. Seeing the world as polarizing as media presents it will only further perpetuate our political divide.

      With that being said, I’d agree it’s quite rare that I read about a good act by a republican politician these days.

        What is right leaning that is factual that NPR isn’t reporting on?

        Vaccines? Trump in League with Russia? Claims of voter fraud being bullshit? Claiming immigrants are evil?

        You do read about all the positive things Republicans are doing. Look at abortion, the lack of regulations, voters being purged, voting maps being unconstitutional, supreme Court justices taking bribes… It’s just most people don’t see this as positive. Whether these things are done by Republicans or Democrats a centered news outlet would not report this in a positive light. Freedoms are being taken away and progress is being halted. These are facts not opinions.

        There are bad actors in the Democratic Party as there are good actors in the Republican Party.

        Can you name one good actor in the Republican party? “Good” as in “not obviously blatantly evil”, so they can’t (for example) be against abortion or supporting Trump.
