it’s more distraction to pile on top of the mountain of information overload they’re intentionally barraging you with as they eliminate the last few remaining shreds of what used to pass for “checks and balances” in the government. once they’re done at the federal level, they’ll move on to the states. congrats, you’re doing exactly what they want
It’s also a conditioning exercise to bully the media and corporate world into bending to their will. It starts off with relatively trivial things like this. Then when serious abused start happening and more rights start being stripped away, they are subservient enough to stay silent about them.
It’s all part of the firehose. While we were looking at maps, Trump installed more cronies in positions of power, pulled funding from political opponents, fired prosecutors who wouldn’t drop charges against allies, attacked science, healthcare, education, national security, unions, safety regulations, and taxes.
I’m growing irritated at this type of comment being the top of every thread about anything they do.
Just like how they can do multiple things at once, people can react to multiple things at once.
Telling people to shut up and take it is… Well, “congrats, you’re doing exactly what they want”.
Which do you think is more likely to get people to do something? The perception that they’ve done one terrible thing or the perception they’ve done a bunch of terrible things, some awful ones, and uncountable absolutely idiotic ones?
