My crazy, wild assed theory as to why the fucking media no longer matters

The oligarch megaphones are rapidly being muted.

Evidence: the 30 special elections that Democrats have won since the start of the child rapist's squat.

People are not as dumb as we sometimes think and they see with their own peepers that this fucking Presidency, fucking Congress and fucking judiciary is more concerned with pampering the fucking billionaire class than working on behalf of the citizenry.

And then they take to the platform of choice and cast a wide net over tens of millions of people.

There is no mass media outlet that comes even close to those numbers.

Tangent to the curve on this is the fucking goofy billionaires' money no longer matters; witness the drubbing that Floridians delivered to MAGAts during the most recent elections.

Rick Wilson does a great take on this and is worth the 30 minutes of time to view.

Big talk about the "No Kings".....BUT all of the coverage (I mean ALL) was only in blue cities and states. And, there was not a big emphasis on the whole thing, just another day in America!

"The Save Act;" making the act of voting more ever more restrictive, expensive and unnecessarily difficult for the American People next to the "Town Hall Canceled" pic shines perfect illumination on the GOP's ultimate ideals and motives.

Just replace the the "We" in the preamble of the Constitution with the F word and that pretty much sums it up.

Thanks for the thread Aviation Pro
