No problem with ID for voting, just have to make sure they're accessible by all at no cost (both time and monetary).

Republicans proposals for voter ID so far have been riddled with ID exclusions that, while never admitted to, would exclude a large part of the population that they don't want to be allowed to vote. Either include more types of ID or make sure to provide everyone with a voter id for free before the election.

today I learnt that sky news UK is very different to sky news Australia.

The creator says that they use the mediabiasfactcheck.com's API and looking at their page it doesn't seem like that info is readily available but maybe they will take a feature request to try to add that info.

The bot seems to use the medibiasfactcheck.com's API which should report 'mixed' factual reporting with extreme right bias.

edit:

seems like there is more data available, the bot could report the MBFC Credibility Rating as well.

Questionable Reasoning: Conspiracy Theories, Pseudoscience, Propaganda, Poor Sources, Numerous Failed Fact Checks
Bias Rating: RIGHT
Factual Reporting: MIXED
Country: USA
MBFC’s Country Freedom Rank: MOSTLY FREE

Traffic/Popularity: High Traffic
MBFC Credibility Rating: LOW CREDIBILITY

edit2: I was looking for a fox rating by that bot, I wasn't able to find one "in the wild" but it seems like it does use the MBFC rating for the heading and does indeed classify fox as "Low"

Example from what I guess is the guys development teating posts: https://lemmy.world/post/18064796

People who downvote instead of (or as well as) blocking it. Why the downvotes? You don't want to see a bias/factual rating of the source or you don't agree with the rating?

I put on my sony wh-1000xm5's to get as clear audio as I could. The first few chants could be interpreted as "lock him up" but it quickly turned to a clear "Ka-ma-la" once the cheering and clapping reduced.

At 8:34 there was a single clear "lock him up" after Harris mentioned Trump's recent conviction.

So that's settled now, I they weren't chanting "lock him up"

It might not but since you effectively have a binary choice, which Israeli policy do you prefer, Bidens or Trump.

if it's really a tie, then start looking at the other policies to see which is the lesser of the two evils.

And you're not trying to deflect from your original argument you were making.

A text book definition of a word vs what people behind a political party in a specific country are very different things.

I stand by what I've said, American conservatives tend to assume that American liberals do what a conservative would have done. In this case be unable to be impartial and make decisions based on their own ideology.

An American liberal is more likely to be able to be impartial than a conservative.

Have a good life.

I am definitely saying the liberals are more likely to be impartial.

liberals tend to favour fairness of outcome, not the conservative fairness of opportunity. Hence they are better able to better put themselves in other people's shoes and go against their core beliefs (ideology) if that means a failed outcome for other people.

I watched it live too, it was painful.

Trump just says what he wants to be true, regardless if it is. But he has always been like that so nothing new.

Biden looked very tired, while he answered the questions much better than Trump, it was painful to watch him struggle to get the words out sometimes.

I suspect that many Biden votes will be a vote against Trump, not for Biden.

This comment really feels like "I'm making all my decisions based on ideology therefore everyone does"
