The problem is that every media outlet is dedicated to horse race controversy bullshit that treats the right as if it's an inevitable and uncontrollable force of nature.
We have 10 articles a day about Biden flubbing the first 15 minutes of a debate, but maybe 1 or 2 total dealing with "black jobs"
And we're all too busy entertaining and even repeating Republican cries of "Biden Must Step Down" to focus on the real issue of Republicans admitting their evil acts in public and the media refusing to cover them with sufficient gravitas.
And yet, no calls in the MSM for the convicted felon Donald Trump to drop out of the race....🤔'
(Well, the Philadelphia Inquirer did, so God bless 'em)
Hell in this country being a minor felon will keep you from many really good jobs and republicans just love that shit but are enthusiastic as hell that one can become president.
While left-wing anti-Biden outlets have made the totally not surprising choice to ignore the SCOTUS Immunity Decision or Project 2025 completely. Jacobin hasn't done a single thing about the Court's decision to make Trump above the law.
That last paragraph right there. Meanwhile I met up with a friend the other day and the subject of the debate came up and the first thing out of their mouth was "wtf is a black job?" People who heard it are understandably angry, but those who didn't would never find it out about it from the media.
i've been losing my mind over this ever since chris rufo started just openly tweeting out his game plans. and it just didn't matter! people were still somehow falling for it! AAAaaAAaaAaAaAA
But have you considered Biden old? Perhaps we need to have the newspapers write and cable TV talk about Biden old! Surely there's nothing else worth talking about!
It’s like on “Pinky and the Brain” when someone sees Brain and asks him what he’s doing and says something like “Actually I’m a lab mouse bent on world domination,” and they just let him go.
It’s called “refuge in audacity,” and fascists love it.
We’re sleep walking into fascism. I wonder if that’s how it’s always worked or if our weird balkanized new media islands have made it possible for people to just choose their own reality.
There’s this weird rationalization that if people are saying awful things publicly that means they don’t really mean them and it’s just performative
Instead of the truth, which is that they say these things because they’re proud of their beliefs and see few risks in telling other people about them
