CURRENT EVENTS — NOVEMBER

My concern with this breaking out into the open while Trump still leads the party is if Trump comes to believe that it will hurt him personally. Trump knows that only one thing truly unites MAGA and that is cruelty to those whom they hate. If Trump comes to be concerned that this divide will impact him, my fear is that he will create new and greater ways to harm minorities and liberals in order to try to get everyone back in the same fascist tent.
He's going to head down that path for kicks anyway. Might as well hope for a Kilkenny Cat thing.


 
Battle for control of the far right and inheritor of MAGA Movement is spreading out of the influencer class into the political class …





The battle for post-Trump conservatism is under way. And Trump is clearly disengaged from everything except personal legacy—building.

Interesting.

Roberts has some points that one can be critical of Isreal without being antisemitic. It's sad that our government, for far too long, has been blindly accepting of Isreal.

At the same time, I'm sure his definition of "truth" is not inclusive, which he made clear in his comment about the "vial ideas of the left". You know the ones like equal rights for all, not just white people. Like religious freedom for all, not just white Christian Nationalist. Like equal and affordable Healthcare for all, not just the rich or the privileged who have good insurance.

Those things are so vile.
 
Hey @nycfan do you think the maga infighting stuff could get its own thread?

It’s a selfish thing on my part. That stuff is part of the slimy disgusting element of social media that I just don’t want to see at all. It’s now infecting multiple threads around here.

I appreciate all that you do around here and your attention to detail. If you don’t want to micro-manage those posts nbd.
 
Is The Gaurdian the only news outlet still doing real reporting? Damn they are like a blast from the past. So refreshing in this day and age.
The Guardian is located in the UK and is independent, which accounts for a lot of it. The BBC, Reuters, and some other British media outlets are also much more reliable than almost anything left here. Given that these news media agencies are located in the UK it will likely be more difficult to take them over than it has been with American media outlets like CBS or CNN, which are being rapidly bought out by Trump buddy billionaires and corporations in a deliberate effort to dominate the American news media market and present a unified state propaganda machine like Orban has in Hungary.

If you're going to get decent news coverage in the future people are likely going to have to find foreign outlets, as there are fewer and fewer independent or reliable or non-Trumper news outlets here, and that's by design. Trumpers have been playing the long game in so many areas, and it is paying off for them more successfully than even they could likely have dreamed.
