I think a big part of what created MAGA is the fact that our media really has been absolute dogshit for fucking decades. People have zero faith in the information presented to them, and for good reason, which has resulted in them just latching onto whatever stream of misinformation feels right to them.
When wasn't the media dogshit, though? Was there ever a golden era where the media told the public things they needed to know without any agenda? Where do people think the spooky specter of Communism came from? It was the media, which was controlled by oligarchs, like it always has been.
That's how we wound up in the Vietnam war and a bunch of other shit, and people are still falling for the old "LoOk OUt! tHEre'S a ComMuNisIM RiGht bEhiND yOu!!!" routine.
It was the media, guys. It's always been the media. There's hardly ever been a war that didn't have the support of the oligarchs. People wonder if we're going to have another civil war in the U.S. That depends entirely on whether or not billionaires want one. If they want us to fight and kill each other, we'll do it. Just like we have always done.

There used to be a much wider variety of news networks. I believe Bill Clinton changed all of that. I do think the nationwide news media has probably always had a propagandist element to it, but when Fox News came along things really took a turn for the worse, and everything devolved into partisan hackery.
And nowadays media outlets just get their talking points handed to them directly by government officials, and they don't even hide it. Once upon a time, there was some amount of quality journalism in this country... People like Hunter S. Thompson could actually write thoughtful dissenting articles of substance.

There has never been a war they didn't support.

One can hope.
Hope that trump will change.. Ahh the innocence.

Guiliani judgement in. $148 million. brutal.
Donald Trump has completely destroyed Rudy Giuliani. It’s just crazy how people sacrifice everything for that degenerate.

Apparently the jury asked the judge what would be the constitutional limit for punitive damages, and then imposed that limit.

The accident attorneys in these parts and in general. Must be some strange court tactic?
They have always had it.
