Yeah, I’m trolling. So sue me.

A mob of Minnesota pro-open borders, anti-Rule of Law, insurrection-minded, Jacob Frey toadies and crazies invade a church service and harass parishioners on the pretense that the minister supports immigration enforcement, and the framing of the event by the nation’s alleged “newspaper of record” is to call the trespass and mass assault a “protest” and to focus on I.C.E. tactics when the issue is anti-I.C.E. tactics. The immigration control agency was not involved in this criminal act in any way, yet it is in the headline.

Nah, there’s no mainstream media bias!

For readers new to Ethics Alarms, “A Friend” is an unfriendly, denial-soaked ex-commenter here who banned himself from the comments, an act that is addressed specifically in the blog Comment Policies. Unlike even the most disrespectful and defiant bannees of the past, who typically issue a one or two finals shots and then sink into the obscurity they so richly deserve, this jerk has adamantly refused to comply with the site’s owner and moderator, me. Thus for years he has repeatedly blog-bombed posts with comments that I have to delete while also sending me emails that also go directly to spam, because he is somehow convinced that he’s smarter than everyone else. You know,

He’s already tried three (or is it four?) illicit comments in 2026. “A Friend’s” main delusion is that the New York Times isn’t an Axis of Unethical Conduct stalwart and makes up for its persistent fake news and manipulated partisan commentary with the occasional wan criticism of a member of its favorite party (guess which) or the fact that some Times readers call out the Grey Lady’s most egregious ethical breaches, though one typically has to wade through a flood of “Right on!” replies to find them.

Of course, if “A Friend” does take up my challenge, you won’t know about it, or it won’t be around for long, because he still doesn’t have commenting privileges.

Tell everybody my reaction to that, Nelson!

Now, to be fair, it isn’t only the New York Times that is embracing the now familiar unethical Axis media technique of deflecting proper public attention to progressive or Democratic Party misdeeds by focusing on the conservative, Republican, or responsible negative reaction to it. Here is Fox News’ headline on the story:

That, as even Fox News haters should be able to concede, is fair, balanced and accurate.

Here is a screenshot I took of Google just now…

Notice anything?
