TBH the less I hear about Trump aside from his prison sentence, the better. He's not POTUS, there are real issues to talk about.
Wait what's up with the 88 thing
H is the 8th letter of the alphabet. So 88 is a common dog wistle for neo-nazis and white supremacists to say "heil hitler".
Being born in '88 must suck.
As someone who used his birthyear in his first reddit account i can confirm
It's a secret-ish Nazi/neonazi sign. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourteen_Words
What media companies are you talking about? You mention there are some righteous ones but they're too few and far between. All of the other ones are owned by like 5 right wing billionaires. Those few and far between ones are all we have.
It’s pretty interesting how you somehow turned this into a both sides hyperbole.
So you go on this rant about how mainstream media has assisted the slide into fascism, how Democrats will be the savior or free speech and ethical journalism.
I seem to have missed what the DNC have done to fight back against this slide into fascism for the past 50 years. In fact they actively helped Trump get elected because he’d be easier to beat.
Can you explain what Democratic leaderships plan is to right the list and get this country functioning again?
How do you mentally take rage about the current state of journalism actively ignoring and encouraging Republicans bad behavior to mean "both sides"?
And here you come, saying they are both bad and we shouldn't concentrate on Trump and instead "what about the democrats!"
