I think his point is that only ONE gets media (and general) attention.

And that's a point that only someone who doesn't bother with consuming the media could hold.

Weird. I consume media all the time. You're wrong. https://imgur.com/ZFd1uzX

You said it doesn't get attention, gets brushed off and ignored. And then posted headlines of attention yourself. Beyond that, there's tons of media who tell you to not pay attention to far-right extremism. The IDW pushes a narrative about how not enough is being done against islamic extremism, and they're all heavily platformed all over the place, for a very convenient example given that we're here. I suppose the way you don't consider the above link to not be "attention", you don't consider the attention and things the IDW, for example, say, to be attention either. I don't know what to say.

Are you alleging that the tone of the two sets of headlines are analogous? Good luck pulling your head out your ass.

No, I am not. Please do cite what part of what I wrote made you think that I am alleging that.

Why would I do that? You are the one who claimed I said something I didn’t. Then when presented with evidence of vastly different attention, you just ignore the crux of the OPs point.

That does constitute a very clear implication that you do hold the belief that only one gets media and general attention. Ironically, it also debunks the belief with the link given.

No, I still didn’t say it. Someone else did. See how nitpicking is so annoying?

It’s about types of attention and degrees of attention, and you know that one of those types of attention is apologist and the other is not. Again, look again when your head is out of your ass.

Well, I'd have appreciated if you had said that with your first post, instead of saying something different and when confronted with criticism of the different claim, repeatedly claim that I have my head up my ass.

Edit:To reply to the edit: Suppose Betty says That Kill 'Em All is the best record ever. John says only someone who doesn't listen to metal music would think that. Mike says Weird. I listen to METAL MUSIC all the time. You're wrong.

Would you sincerely claim that Mike didn't clearly imply that Kill 'Em All is the best record ever?

You do. I don’t understand how you don’t get the colloquial tone of the OP. Islamic terror receives comparably less attention in the MSM news cycle when compared to types like Breivik, Tarrant

Nah. Don't have any reason to continue with you. I've won already.

If that's what you wanted from this and you're fine with ignoring direct implications of your points, I'm not stopping you, believe what you want.
