If fake news is a good thing, why is "Reason" always whining about the Biden administration's attempts to force "the media" to censor its content? Why isn't J. D. Vance "entitled" to spread the "Haitians ate my cat" myth if makes folks hate foreigners?

  So youre upset the very few times reason has criticized democrats and still ignoring hatian culture and videos. Got it. Find it telling you guys have stopped including ducks in the diatribe though.
