Georgia Republicans Push for State 'Journalism Ethics Board':
Six Republican state representatives in Georgia have moved to create an "ethics board" for journalists that would require news organizations to provide copies of pictures and audio and video recordings of interviews to subjects who request them or risk civil penalty.
The cost of meeting those requests would be paid by the news organizations.
The proposed legislation, House Bill 734, titled the "Ethics in Journalism Act," was sponsored Tuesday by Rep. Andy Welch, who represents the city of McDonough.
The bill would create a board of media professionals and academics that would produce"a canon of ethics" and "develop a voluntary accreditation process in journalism ethics," which would also allow for the investigation and sanctioning of journalists.
This bill isn't really about local news publishers (although they would be censored too) this is about censoring CNN which is headquartered in Atlanta.

Half of the world's population believes in a final battle to end all battles. You don't want them to be represented? Only your team should be represented? Got it. O'Crazio Cortez doesn't scare you? How about Beatoff O'Cork?

...Jesus titty-fucking Christ, are you serious?! I'm supposed to be okay with these people wanting the end of the world because half the human race is deluded? Do you understand that an idea does not go from a bad one to a good one just because a lot of people agree with it? That wasn't even rhetorical, Runaway; I am now firmly convinced there is something mentally wrong with you. No one sane would even think to try that as a gambit.
And hell no AOC and BoR don't scare me anywhere near as much as that lot does. I disagree with them on some things, but if it came down to them versus literally any Republican, ever, at all, that we have in the current field, they would have my vote, and that's on policy, not on tribal politics.
Tribal politics. That's ALL you have, and boy does it show. You would destroy the world, literally destroy it, for your tribe. People like you are why we are in this mess.

You do know what a self fulfilling prophecy is, right?
Oh, don't blame my tribe, so blindly. You're a member of the tribe that wants to destroy my tribe. What did I tell you about hatred? Obviously, it didn't soak in. You can't start destroying, and then magically turn it off when you think that it's enough.
If/when you've destroyed my tribe, you had best suck up real good to O'Crazio and O'Cork and their tribe. Because they'll be looking for you and any other potential dissenters.

You're beyond dialoguing with any longer, sunk permanently in your own delusions. You're screaming at some kind of phantom image of me that stands eight feet tall and has snake-pupil eyes and two rows of blood-dripping fangs, or some other similar such nightmare. How am I supposed to talk to you if you've decided I'm a monster?
I've already said I don't hate you, but rather pity you, and that pity only gets stronger the more I see posts like this from you. But because I also know how your kind of personality works, I understand that nothing will change you until you hit rock bottom. You have to suffer in specific ways that are directly relevant to your political positions before those positions will change. And I hope you do. Not for its own sake, but so you can start rebuilding your humanity.

If "represented" means "STARTING the final battle to make sure that they get to be raptured by it, while everyone else gets to die horribly", then no, thanks, I'd prefer that they not be represented. Occasio-Cortez doesn't scare me any more than any other overly-idealistic young person who will moderate as the learn to negotiate the practicalities of what can be done in the real world. If you want some REAL radical liberal thinking, go read the Gospels, which are 90% ignored.

That's kinda funny. I'd rather Moslems weren't represented in Washington, so they can push their Sharia law on all the rest of us. But - no one cares what I'd rather. Everyone gets a vote, including Moslems, including the sons and daughters of illegal aliens (once they reach age 18), including liberals, including conservatives, and oh yeah, including Christians.
I will also point out that Christians aren't the only bunch who believes in Armageddon, or Megido, or Ragnarok, or The Final Battle. In fact, Christians make up considerably less than half of the group.

You can always leave the country. Maybe hop the border into Canada? What will they call you then, a snow-back? Will you steal a job from a good honest Canadian worker?
Only half-joking. If you hate this place so bad, go somewhere else that aligns more with your values. Maybe Ukraine?

So? Everyone gets angry sometimes. Point still stands: you've disappeared into a mental Hell of your own making. You see monsters where there are none, and you don't see them where they are plainly staring you in the face. I keep saying that "Hell is other people" is wrong, 100% wrong, and this is one small earthly manifestation of why.
Keep being tormented by eight-foot venomous snake-faced me if you want to. That's your prerogative.

You are filled with hate, and you fantasize about mutilating the genitals of your opponents, so they can roast in hell for significant parts of eternity, or some such.

If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen. That's not hate; that's pity. You need to suffer to learn, and suffer you will, here or hereafter. I wish it weren't so, but it is so.
Know what hate is? Your cool, calm, collected willingness to sacrifice, what was it, "5 million conservatives" to kill "20 million liberals?" Know what hate is? Your damn near direct quote of the various white supremacist mantras about making sure your kids aren't "turned into slaves" in order to "make brown and black people happy."
You miss something very important: hate isn't "hot" most of that time. That is, anger, wrath, and vengeance run "hot;" hate, real hate, runs as cold as the black void of interstellar space, and as indifferent. Your...strategic calculus, shall we say, concerning your Civil War 2.0 masturbation fantasies is a perfect example.
Do I need to copypasta that unhinged rant of yours AGAIN? Seems like I do. Here it be:
THERE'S your fuckin' hate, Runaway, you God-damned hypocrite. I will never, ever, let you live this down.

I dunno, Runaway, that shit's pretty clear on its own, and doubly so to anyone keeping up with your post history. I'd say I understand it plenty well, and you've been backed so far into a corner that you're gonna try and brazen your way out of it by pretending you didn't actually say or mean it.
Really, it's amazing how much you resemble the classic RWA/narcissist caught in his own trap. You have the exact same observed pattern: "I didn't say that. And if I did, you didn't understand it. And if you understood it, you're wrong for not agreeing with it. And if you're not wrong for disagreeing, you're just wrong because fuck you."
Keep it up, Runaway. Keep posting. Keep exposing yourself in public. I will chase your fat retarded inbred ass around like Tisiphone herself with a whip made out of history.
