Summary  :  A far-left magazine that occasionally lets a good article or two through. I had some hope when they hired the prolific conservative intellectual, Kevin Williamson, but then they fired him for thoughtcrime of having once written a pro-life article, showing that they do not value diversity of thought at the Atlantic.

Examples

Here's some examples of their bias: Template:StripCategory2 • [6 items]

• 2017.05.25 NATO - Trump criticized European Countries for doding their responsibilities to NATO, they startled slacking on their obligations slightly less, and came up with more money. The Press, Left and EU blamed Trump for hurting NATO by pointing out their failures and demanding they do better, white NATO confesses they got $100B and stronger because of it.
• 2018.10.03 Cruelty is the point - "The Cruelty Is the Point: President Trump and his supporters find community by rejoicing in the suffering of those they hate and fear" is a perfect example of Atlantics biases, claiming Trump supporters like hurting people. Yet it does what it claims the other side does, and ignores the real motives; the these policies stop hurting people and help more than the status quo.
• 2019.03.22 Mueller Report - The Mueller Report showed that there was no hint at collusion by Trump or his team, it was a Hillary funded hoax, that was used to obstruct Trump and undermine our Democracy, start illegal investigations and wiretapping, distract from helping America and our interests, and keep the media occupied repeating criminal disinformation.
• Atlantic on Seleimani - Atlantic finds some far-left anti-American law professor talking head to ignore the thousands of people Obama drone bombed, and complain that Trump killed one, with far more justification -- and thus Trump was wrong to not get congressional approval first. Pick one standard please. If Trump was wrong, then Obama should be in gitmo.
• Hillary Clinton/Vandals - FakeNews tries to spin $14K in vandalism (according to the GAO), done by Clinton admin on the way out, as just a couple prank. No other administration was classless enough to ever do this before or since.
• Smart guns are dumb - "Smart guns" (safe guns) were a solution to a virtually imaginary problem; having your gun taken away and used against you. It does this by making a gun more expensive, less reliable (and more likely to get the user killed), and there are better solutions to the mostly non-existent problems. Gun illiterates think it's great, but informed gun owners see no value.

Conclusion

So what did we learn?

I learned that while the Atlantic’s founding motto was, “Of no party or clique”, that dream is long dead. We also learn that anywhere that progressives get a voice, they will ruin it for others. They have the tolerance of complete intolerance: there is no party or clique at the Atlantic, because like California, Nazi Germany, or anywhere else the progressives rule, they demand complete and utter subjugation to the will of the collective: thus they are not "of" the clique, they are the clique.
