yea feels like media should do both so for every “far-right” story which are happening pretty much hourly the media should make up a “far-left” story to counter it, it is only fair :)
> Even when Obama was president and had both houses of congress, I don’t recall headlines about ‘far left’ stuff.
You mean the same Obama whose signature legislative accomplishment was passing a healthcare reform law modeled on a proposal originally made by the insurance industry and embraced by the Republican Party as an alternative to the proposed Clinton healthcare reform?
Yeah, there's a reason that there wasn't much talk about the "far left" except from very openly right-wing partisan sources.
I personally am against any speech supression but when the government itself is working hard to supress free speech and most “social media” these days are nothing more than an extension of a political party perhaps some place where you can’t just say stupid shit all day makes some sense. in an ideal world american would have freedom but unfortunately that ship has sailed…
blocking part of this I personally never understood the controversy, anyone should be able to block anyone they want.
I will add though that me as a private citizen (if I was stupid enough to be on social media (used to be long time ago)) I would block 100’s of accounts daily. However, if I was POTUS I would never block unless I am sure it is a bot and not a real person. If you are POTUS and also have nothing better to do (God help us) but read replies and mentions on social media I’d like to hear “both sides.”
Republicans in particular are awesome at winning elections where majority of sheep voting eat crap like “wokeness” all day long. however, the Replicans neither know nor probably want to govern (especially this administration which is acting like 95% of americans voted for them) and hence come 2026 and 2028 they get creamed like 2018 and 2020. average american voter is fairly dumb (see 2016 and 2024) as it is easy to scare people with stupid things like “wokeness” and “migrant crime” - works well to win election but when you are clueless how to govern you soon (2026 for DJT) become lame duck waisting country’s time for next two years.
tech titans are spineless scum of the earth. zuck was ready to marry a black transgender inner city ‘women’ while Joe was President and now is suddenly all ‘masculine’ while Donny is at the helm. they would all get train F’ed before standing up for their beliefs, regardless of what those are… Tim I won’t even mention, the levels he has to stoop to I wouldn’t do for a trillion dollars…
