  • were explicitly favoring him for some horrifying reason

    I’m at work on a short break so I can’t pull up the source, but the guy whose family “runs” the NYTs has said he’s looking to court conservative readers. He has denied this somewhat recently, but the trend matches the behavior we witnessed l. I found this by trying to figure out who owns the NYT to begin with so maybe start with the wiki on NYT




  • Where are all the real journalists at?

    They along with the actual research departments were dumped about 15 years ago during the “great buyout” of all major media outlets. Corporations/billionaires like Bezos bought up institutions like the Washington Post and pretty much immediately went into business school jackass mode of squeeze squeeze squeeze for more profit so the first things to go were investigative journalism and research departments in favor of literally copying whatever story the NYT ran (not kidding.)

    Their motto is “no blood from a stone? You aren’t squeezing hard enough!”






  • You don’t get it guys, there’s literally no evidence that Russia likes Trump and wants Republicans to win! None! They never met with Russian operatives to discuss orphans (dropping the sanctions on Russia from the magnitski act, orphan exchange was retaliation from Russia)

    There was never a young redhead Russian operative dating Republican politicians!

    There was never a meeting between Trump and Putin where no US translators were allowed!

    There was never an attempt to make a Trump Moscow hotel!

    There was never a transaction between Paul Manafort and a Russian intelligence operative where he shared campaign information!

    There was never a time that Trump said on a news conference before the election, “Russia, if you’re listening — I hope you are able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. Let’s see if that happens.” Russia never released the DNC emails the next day!

    Sean Hannity yelled at me that Democrats are the ones helping Putin and they’re the real Nazis so I believe it!





  • We have a similar problem where I live… It became a rich person vacation spot like 15 years ago and now they’re ruining the town… They buy up the shops, but gut them from being geared towards those that live here to just throw away vacation trinket shops and stupidly overpriced restaurants that all close from fall to spring. They buy all the available housing so they can spend two fucking weeks a year in the house…

    I can absolutely empathize with these people. At least here, these rich fucking tourists are literal locusts. No one but themselves benefit: they made a closed system that their money circulates in and all the working people have to leave which ALSO benefits the wealthy as their homes become available to buy… Of course too expensive for us to afford, but what’s $1+million for a 2 week vacation spot for an obscenely wealthy person…
