Gotta imagine he'll be worse than Trump.
47 years sucking the government's dick. No, wait. He was the dick.

it is time to stop waiting for some single moment of watershed victory; accept that the system will, at best, be dragged kicking and screaming in the right direction. it will be thankless, and it will take a while. but, already, i have to say, feel a bit less down and paranoid now that trump's gone

"how could one fuckface dominate the news for 4 years entirely?"
To be fair, that's not his fault. If the media wanted to go "Ugggh, oh no, look what he's said now, something about babies in cages from Yemen. Behind a wall. And now he's said something indelicate about the Qashqai people. OH GOD!" for 4 years straight, that's up to them.

It's interesting, I watched that very stupid Netflix "documentary" about the horrors of social networks, which is worth watching just for the chills you get watching supposedly reformed Facebook etc. employees talking very stupidly about the business. There's a tremendously revealing moment when one of these idiots says "but what are the companies supposed to do? Make less profit, and get sued by the shareholders?!"
And this, I think, is the crux of the matter, why social networks will always, always opt to make more profit at the expense of anything else, and why news networks will run something about Melania brushing away Donald's hand as they walk down an aisle somewhere, rather than anything more substantial: they appear to have no choice.
Do YOU want to be the one to post poor quarterly profits because you didn't lead with Orange Man Headlines? Of course not.

It'll just be interesting to see the fawning coverage over whatever mediocre, hackneyed "come together" message Biden repeatedly gives out over the next 4 interminable years, whilst bombing some butt-fuck country bordering Russia.

Pretty sure Donald tweeting in exile from the gold toilet seat at the Mar-a-lago winter palace is going to generate more clicks and revenue than ol' corpsey Joe making foreign hamburger meat.

I became acutely aware of the power of suggestion, massively amplified through social media (bearing in mind I only have a lightly brushed passing with "all the Socials". I am more likely to come here than Facebook) during COVID, then BLM, when people seemed to FINALLY LOSE THEIR MINDS. If one follows "this shit" closely, and invests personally in it, it's BAD. It's all horribly scripted by the least capable bird that works in your HR dept., desperately trying to create work for themselves and justify their role.
I am so tired. So very tired.

It's structural and systemic, if only we could get rid of the bad actors like your bird in HR and that would fix things. IF ONLY.
The social networks and news are full of useless uninformative sputtering outrage for the same reason that processed food is full of fat and carbs. Outrage is the fat and carbs of the psychosphere.

I'm so willing to be vaccinated with whatever it is, I'm not even going to ask to be tested on whether I've already had covid or not.
Don't care what it does. I've always wanted a t-rex baby.

how can you say its not his fault the media fell for his populist politics and nonsense persona. its been the name of the game over and over and increased immensely in the past decade. id be very surprised if he wasnt playing that deliberately.

I agree, but the media didn't have to overreact to every single thing he said and did. He was playing them, he likes being in the news, he likes being attacked so he can say "See, the establishment's against me".
Well, he's gone now. If the media can bear to tear themselves away from his orange teat.

Probably no one in "the media" aside from Trump is more responsible than Mark Burnett, the producer of The Apprentice, who created the illusion of Trump as a savvy, competent executive.
And I say "aside from Trump" because it's silly to consider Trump apart from the media at all. He's fully a performer, a creature and creation of the screen, who's now thrashing and flailing, not quite comprehending on an emotional level why a producer is not stepping in to save him and make him look good with edits and narrative tweaks.
