the first, second and third most important news stories this week are about the SCOTUS decision, and every columnist spending their time talking about biden old is telling you what they value. we don’t have to indulge them, though, stop your subs, stop clicking, stop talking about them.
I am thinking: it was satisfying to cancel my WaPo subscription and write them an explanation as to why. Drop in the bucket but better than yelling at Net randoms.
I think I want to scold more media people. Know of any outlets more accessible than others?
i stopped clicking on NYT sometime around a year or two ago, down from "ok, i'll read this exclusive deep dive report" that i put in place in '16
if it weren't for Bouie, Krugman, and y'all reposting their stuff, i would never see it
every outlet reports the big events anyways, and the in-depth...
It's not going starve them of clicks or subs or whatever, but it's enough for us to be able to think a little clearer. The alternative appears to be accepting that young people hate Joe Biden so much they're voting for Donald Trump just to be rid of him
I always assumed if a group wanted to overthrow US it would take some level of intelligence and skill. Instead it's just fucking dumb through and through.
Funny how one can cheer the SCOTUS decision even as Biden is supposedly *SOOO diminished*. If he was that loosey-goosey, I'd think there'd be more legit hand wringing
It's almost like that line of attack is disingenuous bullshit.
THANK YOU!!!! I’m a @thebulwark.bsky.social subscriber, but I’ve taken a break from them since debate night. Never-trumpers & younger folks seem to be loudest voices. Stop talking about 1968, that was an unmitigated disaster. I’m w @therickwilson.bsky.social, Stuart Stevens, & Mike Madrid.
R playbook ran out of pages. immigration, economy attacks fizzling. media has had symbiotic relationship with R outrage for a long time. the medias muscles have developed on their own enough its just instinct to run on their own.
