i know house of cards is gauche now, but one of the first real "oh something is very wrong here" moments I had about the press was when the press was doing 'tee hee how naughty' bits about kate mara's character (the journalist at not-buzzfeed)

The Trump regime granted the suspected shooter asylum earlier this year. Now they are taking his alleged crime out on all Afghan nationals seeking entrance to the US. Another ban. Another excuse for violence and deportation.

I still find it incredibly funny how a former liberal arts professor who writes for the atlantic and does a podcast is considered a (white) working class whisperer because he wears a camo hat on his twitter pfp

yeah it’s bad that Lizza has been sitting on this for so long but also how cursory and inept was that Vox investigation that not only managed to miss the biggest scandal in the history of American political journalism but affirmatively exonerated her bsky.app/profile/bkel...

I've made about $17k all year, INCLUDING my adjunct teaching job. There is this idea that anyone working in the arts has wealthy family help, and sure some do, but a lot of us are simply poor. If you enjoy someone's work please pay them for it. It is not greedy to want to be paid for your labor.

Thinking "impressions" and "user reviews" are real is a true "dead internet" flag. Before 201X, journos understood the limits of these measures and their place in the web ecology. But then a new generation of rich kid dipshit started getting work in media and twitter impressions = nielsen captures.

I don't think it's even "hit the play button", just "had this post cross their timeline"... last I heard, they weren't reporting the actual video view count separately from the tweet impression count anymore, unless they do inside the owner's analytics. I doubt TAH has an actual view count

The last God’s Not Dead movie made $1.1m at the box office, almost certainly less than it cost to make, certainly less than it cost to make and market. They’re making another one, not because people want it, but because they need you to know they hate you.

“Is right-wing slop breaking through to the mainstream?” No. No it is not. Billions of dollars and countless man-hours are spent propping it up and people fucking hate it. It’s soulless trash that doesn’t even convincingly convey honest animus

This is innumerate nonsense. An average of 1.1 million people were watching The Simpsons throughout its entire thirty-minute broadcast according to a third-party data company contracted to measure viewership by Disney. Somebody, no way to know who, hit the play button 1.7 million times on Twitter

On September 28, 1.1 million Americans tuned in for the 37th season premiere of the groundbreaking animated sitcom The Simpsons. A little more than a week later, another groundbreaking animated sitcom had its season premiere: The Will Stancil Show debuted on X, where it accumulated 1.7 million views. Since then, three more

this should go without saying but if you were one of the lucky few we did get out of Afghanistan during the withdrawal and we got you out because you'd been working with us, deportation back is likely a death sentence.

President Trump has long portrayed his stamina as a political strength. But that image is getting harder for him to sustain.

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.

I hate that like the internet has nuked people's brains, I saw someone bitching about "why is the President ALWAYS! like 90!" Obama was in his 40s, so was Bill Clinton, W was 54, just in the last 10 years have Presidents been old (and people could have voted for the 59 year old)

Okay so we are aware that those allegations exist almost entirely because a spectrum-wide alliance of populist grifters needed a post hoc way to absolve The People of supporting the Iraq War for racist panic reasons and the right realized it was more socially acceptable than the alternative, right

This is heartbreakingly cruel and hypocritical. The same admin that has redefined refugee status to cover white South Africans is now going to drown thousands of refugees already approved for their status in red tape, potentially even seeking to strip some of their status and deport them.

That these memes seemed to work really underscores what a tremendous own goal it was for leftists to validate their logic. Harris said the word "lethal" in her DNC speech; meanwhile Trump had a tremendously bloody record as *President.* But a lot of online influencers only emphasised the former.
