It’s Time to Defund Fox "News"
THE REAL CULPRIT
If business types really care about social justice, they’ll defund the country’s most prominent purveyor of anti-justice poison. And here’s an unlikely model for them to follow.

Basically what they are saying to their political opponent is this: Shut up!

I had a cordial ca 40 minuits or so with a random older woman in my usual watering hole, who was a vascillating Trump supporter, who asked me how I felt about him, and said she was worried basically about his mental and behavioral fitness to remain an effective potus. I sighed, and our convo began.

Was she wearing a mask? The longer the interaction, the greater the risk. 40 minutes is starting to be a long time in this context.

Yup, probably reducing public exposure more these days. Probably change some things as well before I become another statistical proof of principle.

Reddit bans r/The_Donald as part of a major expansion of its rules
https://www.theverge.com/2020/6/29/2...t-policy-rules
Facebook and Twitter should be taking notes. Hate-mongering and fake "news" is destroying democracy, and needs to be shut down. Journalism should be the province of journalists, and real news organizations, as it has always been in the past. Unfiltered Social Media is a cesspool of nonsense, lies, fake news and hate, especially from the far-right.

Agree. they are literally, purposefully, and all too effectively, spreading insanity.

You and Chicks. 21st century book burners.
Why were the books burned, sir? One man's great ideas is another man's insanity. Neither should be allowed to burn any more than those copies he's purchased.
And to suggest otherwise makes one a brown shirt.
