The 2024 Election is a referendum on how ignorant we choose to allow ourselves to be.

Re: GOP-tRump lovefest...Josh Marshall nailed it in a recent column when he referred to the behaviour of Repubs slavishly rolling over for tRump as essentially a *dignity* problem, specifically a loss or suppression of personal dignity in order to endorse and fawn over a criminal "strongman" who continuously demands blind loyalty and praise.

This phenomenon has been nothing short of a mass surrender of one's moral code to that of a gangster, an authoritarian narcissist who not only revels in but is also strengthened by such mindless idolatry.

Mussolini immediately comes to mind, and can only fervently hope that the latter's fate is shared by tRump, metaphorically or otherwise.

Why is the NYT so pathetic at headlines?

Another day when I consider these treasonous scum and have to tell myself, "If my thought dreams could be seen, they'd put my head in a guillotine."

So Hannity and L Trump are stating via projection-admission that when Trump appears to have energy heā€™s actually drugged up like the rumors all say? Seriously, Iā€™m not completely joking there, just mostly so. I think.

As for the GOPā€™s increasing insanity: to the mainstream/mass/elite mediaā€™s credit, theyā€™re not completely covering it up. They allow it to be visible to the voters. Too: you know theyā€™re only going to get worse between now and November so silver lining.

I dunnoā€¦is mainstream media doing a fair job of covering news accurately? Letā€™s think of the hoopla put out by Cooper Anderson and Ari Melbourne ā€¦on the damage done to Cohen that Friday in the trial - that was hugely fear mongering and inaccurate (as one example). I am still gonna boycott NYT until I witness a huge shift; sticking with Substacks!

Only as an exception to the rule. But when they show Trump unfiltered and without their bullshit framing theyā€™re providing a service.
