R. Wm. "Ruedii" 🦊 🥖: Yes, and classic yellow journalism says that pandering to hate and anger is far easier, cheaper and draws more attention than any real journalism.

reskeet with a tweet you still think about

The racism against Muslims has been awful since 9/11.

It has been but I am not afraid to say that it was really horrible from 01-09. Then the economy really crashed & when people really lost everything in the market crash got distracted By the time the economy started to recover Covid hit & it was the Asian population that got targeted.

Israeli anti-Palestinian propaganda is bringing back up the Islamophobic hate, though.

Oh yeah. It's cyclical. "We" like to make sure that group media driven hate doesn't focus on one group too long because then the public gets bored and starts to question things. Whatever group is convenient at the time is focused on. Gross but it's how it do

Yes, and classic yellow journalism says that pandering to hate and anger is far easier, cheaper and draws more attention than any real journalism.
