If you hadn’t brought it up, the country wouldn’t be going fascist! You posted a cartoon on Instagram that made 16 million people stay home! You predicted this outcome and that means you must have wanted it! /s

Having two different realities is not good. I’m not sure what is to be done about it though. Some people will always choose to believe the easy lie over the difficult truth.

Ignoring Fox and the crazies for a moment, how often have mainstream networks given equal time to climate change deniers and actual scientists, pretending there was a debate where there wasn’t one.

I want to push back a little on “we all agreed on what was and what was not reality.” When there were three TV stations, did any of them highlight police brutality? Overincarceration? The military industrial complex? Anything that would hurt their sponsor’s bottom lines?

The news networks we have today are all owned by large media conglomerates. They range from pro-corporate to pro-fascist. I’m glad that there are enough independent voices that we can hear from people who don’t profit off of the status quo. It’s unfortunate that right wing media is so prevalent and well funded, but if there is an answer to that, it’s not going back to the days when Walter Cronkite, CBS, and Gulf+Western would tell us “That’s the way it is”.

It is more difficult than a few years ago, especially if you don’t want to get sued or get a threatening letter from your ISP.

I would only torrent with a VPN and a private tracker. It’s certainly not difficult to learn, but absolutely requires some small amount of information to acquire.

6,000 crickets released directly in the audience. (I hope from multiple points.) This is glorious. 😁

Maybe you don’t mind if a cricket jumps on you. I’d shudder and shake it off, demonstrating my lack of courage and dexterity. A lot of people will scream, jump around, or run.

Picture these assholes attending their favorite panel at TransphobiaCon. A cricket jumps on someone, she brushes it away in disgust. Another just feels something caught in her hair. She bats at it, looks into it’s beady, insectoid eyes and screams. More screams. The Transphobe in Charge can’t hold the audience’s attention.

There is some sort of insect infestation. Are they harmful? They don’t know. But they have to cancel their homophobia speech because nobody wants to sit in a room with thousands of crickets.

This is straight out of an 80’s movie and I am here for it!

“Not like that! We meant we should debate whether trans people should exist or not! Redistributing wealth is just evil.”

Way ahead of you, buddy.

That’s not the same story?

By “How 2016 turned out” you mean the Democrats ran a conservative, establishment Democrat when literally everyone was saying we want change? Then she was beaten by an “outsider” and the Democrats went all ‘shocked Pikachu face’ and blamed progressives for their choices?

Dems think that we owe them our votes while they refuse to represent us. That is not democracy.
