Hey now, don’t sell those wine moms short. They have a lot of built up rage, especially if they haven’t spoken to a manager in a while.

This has to be one of the dumbest comments I’ve ever seen. Imagine being so entitled to insult people who are complaining, which is itself just you complaining. If they’re “wine moms who need to speak to the manager” then how sad must you be? At least they’re complaining to people with power. You’re just complaining about people who are tired of this shit.

I think you need to do some self-reflection and try to understand why you’re angry at these people. They aren’t the ones who have harmed you. Find the real issues rather than your bullshit of being angry at “others.”

Do you remember when we used to be able to be friends with people of different political beliefs instead of insulting each other over trivial bullshit? And I mean both sides. You know this is exactly what they want, right? If we’re busy fighting each other then we won’t have enough energy to fight actual problems with the system.

Can you name some problems with the system?

The fact that the SCOTUS can basically do whatever the fuck they want, the electoral college making elections basically pointless if you live in the opposite area as your political views, Gerrymandering, a legislative branch that never gets anything done, a government that shuts down whenever people don’t agree instead of solving issues, and a two party system that just gives people two shitty choices just to name a few.

I shouldn’t really have to list all the problems with the system when we all deal with the consequences on a daily basis regardless of which party you are affiliated with. We are all getting constantly fucked but spend all our time bitching at our neighbors about which side of the political spectrum they are on when it’s just as fucked no matter who is in charge.

No? Growing up around conservatives I remember them talking a whole lot of shit. If they thought you were a liberal that shit would get directed at you. Things weren’t quite as bad back then compared to now, but they were still whiny hateful assholes.

They were as bad, but there weren’t so many. Most of them weren’t “activated” yet.

Nope.
I’m not from the USA, but it’s common knowledge you shouldn’t talk about politics or religion if you want to stay friends/couple… Which is weird, like, why would I want to stay friends with someone who doesn’t support things like having better working conditions or better healthcare or eating the rich? I guess it was one of those weirdos that said that to prevent being questioned and exposed.

Yeah it’s a news outlet that’s been celebrating and endorsing the slaughter of children for decades. “Oh no they normalized orange man”!!!

Oh no, sweetie. You didn’t get the memo. Genocide is totally ok as long as it’s Democrats that are arming the effort. Actually: don’t even mention this fact. Like, EVER!

You see, it’s more important that Democrats win than it is to protect the innocent in another country. You don’t even see those horrors in person! Don’t worry about it!! 🤣

DON’T WORRY ABOUT IT!! 😠

Other than NPR, who hasn’t?

Singling out NYT seems pretty myopic.

How about you go organize a protest in front of another news room? They’re doing something. They can’t exactly go protest a bunch or organizations at the same time without a ton more people.

Why are you letting the perfect E the enemy of the good?

There’s no “singling out” NYT. I don’t even have to explain that. And I’m not equipped to provide sources, but NYT has been unreasonably sympathetic to Trump’s rambling. They’ve also published some wild exposes of his tax frauds and silly criminal dalliances.

I’m glad they’re doing it. This sane-washing shit drives me crazy. You constantly see headlines saying things like “Trump proposes new policy making guaranteeing sunshine and rainbows for everyone” when in reality, a Trump supporter asked him about lowering food prices and he went in a 15 minute rant that included him saying “and I am the best at sunshine, the sunshine loves me… and don’t even get me started at the rainbows… my communist opponent hates rainbows but not me, the rainbows said ‘sir, you are the best at sunshine and rainbows, more than anyone has ever seen’.”

I don’t know if “sane-washing” is the right term. It seems more like they are working as campaign staff to spin a message out of his ramblings.

If they were interested in journalism, they’d say that Trump’s plan to lower food prices is to love rainbows and receive love from sunshine. You know, just stating the facts. The term “sane-washing” to me infers that the entity doing the sane-washing is a journalist and not a campaign staffer.

Making incoherent ramblings sound like campaign messages is the exact meaning of “sane-washing”.
