    I especially love how these stations, along with Fox will make these assertions of how, “lights are on but no one’s home”, then follow it immediately with how he’s the mastermind behind political prosecutions, controlling the DoJ and executing a coordinated anti-republican regime.

      Fascist societies rhetorically cast their enemies as “at the same time too strong and too weak”. On the one hand, fascists play up the power of certain disfavored elites to encourage in their followers a sense of grievance and humiliation. On the other hand, fascist leaders point to the decadence of those elites as proof of their ultimate feebleness in the face of an overwhelming popular will.

    If only we enforced anti-trust laws…

    Back in the day wed split up monopolies with those laws.

    DOJ went after Sinclair like 5 years ago, but it was about price fixing with other stations because they were colluding to raise ad prices for billion dollar corporations.

    And they just had to pay a settlement.

    It’s sucks the government acts to defend corporations but not people.
