BIASES : Bias is a disproportionate weight in favor of or against an idea or thing, usually in a way that is closed-minded, prejudicial, or unfair. Biases can be innate or learned. People may develop biases for or against an individual, a group, or a belief. In science and engineering, a bias is a systematic error.

propaganda : Propaganda is the dissemination of information—facts, arguments, rumours, half-truths, or lies—to influence public opinion. Deliberateness and a relatively heavy emphasis on manipulation distinguish propaganda from casual conversation or the free and easy exchange of ideas.

docker41 [41]

He's also calling global warming an expensive little hoax, which is completely wrong and upsetting. Biden, however, is in favor of LGBTQ+ rights, womens rights, and supports black men and women.
