I'm having a hard time having sympathy for someone who was supporting anti-trans bigots, who were accusing teachers of being pedophiles, and (I suppose) attempting a coup. (Hard to take the last one seriously.)

Like... Of course this ended poorly. I'm surprised they paid any of the hydro bill from their camp, tbh.

It's Press Progress. This is less a "poor farmer" article, and more a seat at a wrestling match where everyone hates both guys.

I'd hope that the farmer learned a lesson but I doubt it's the right one.

And yet Media Bias gives Press Progress a High mark for factual reporting.

I do agree on how poorly the article is written tho. But when it can't be based on facts (like police reports or other sources) it would always just be a he said/she said.

I feel like you've misread me in every way possible.
