We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.
In the space of half a day, the new administration has trashed the Constitution, subverted the independence of the DOJ, granted a broad amnesty to traitors, abandoned the global community on climate and public health, and launched a wide-ranging attack on minority rights.

Elon Musk Ignites Online Speculation Over the Meaning of a Hand Gesture Speaking at a celebratory rally in Washington, Mr. Musk twice extended his arm out with his palm facing down, drawing comparisons to the Nazi salute.
15:06 Uhr Elon Musk irritiert mit Hitlergruß- ähnlicher Bewegung In der Sporthalle Capitol One, wo ein Public Viewing ausgerichtet wird, betritt Elon Musk springend und tanzend die Bühne. "So fühlt sich Siegen an", ruft er und reißt die Arme nach oben. In einer kurzen Ansprache sagt er zu jubelnden Trump-Anhängern: "Dank Ihnen ist die Zukunft der Zivilisation gesichert. Wir werden sichere Städte haben, endlich sichere Städte, sichere Grenzen, vernünftige Ausgaben, grundlegendes Zeug.“ Mit der rechten Hand macht er eine Bewegung, die an einen Hitlergruß erinnert.

Trump later announced his support for a deal in which U.S. firms would buy stakes in ByteDance, with Yass’ partner among the proposed members of a new board.

TikTok has been taken over by the vast right wing media machine.

19.01.2025 18:50 — 👍 1500 🔁 308 💬 57 📌 17to recap:
— Trump was *for* the TikTok ban
— which the GOP Congress passed
— and the GOP Supreme Court upheld
— and even though Biden said he wouldn't enforce the ban, TikTok shut down anyway
— so that Trump could "save" it
— and the media fell for it
we really do live in the dumbest fucking country

About to watch Hot Frosty and it’s moments like these I miss SYFY Fangrrls the most. This movie is precisely the kind of silly trash that we lived for. I can just imagine the pitches & our Slack channel…

Yet those deaths are not viewed the same as murder bc they were the by product of making shareholders $$. The system is beyond broken.
