Incredible. This fails basic logic. One has nothing to do with the other. NYT editors not even trying anymore

14 of the last 20 stories on your feed are Biden Old. 1 is a glowing profile of one of the fascists on the supreme court. none are about the end of the rule of law in america

w/caveat that biden is super old and we're effed: this is exactly how mainstream media thumbs scale while maintaining plausible denial. publicize a private convo as a "public indication," claim you're just repeating the facts, marvel at supposedly organic shift in public opinion

to be serious for a sec, i wouldn't be surprised if the massive mainstream media debate pile-on, and continued focus on that even as we are almost nazi germany (see NYT's "biden managed not to slobber when he decried the new monarchy"), is discouraging a lot of folks
