They gutted the Washington Post. CBS. NYT. Now Teen Vogue.
The point isn't to bring in more conservatives. They've reached that saturation point.
They are killing the fourth estate and buying up the social media to control the messages we see. These were all targeted to disarm the left of truth.

Cristian Vazquez is the seventh person on a bike to be killed by dooring this year in New York City. He was riding an electric Citi Bike, capped at 15 mph. Mayor Adams' e-bike speed limit didn't save his life. A protected bike lane might have.

Many of my liberal peers see clearly how mainstream outlets have ruined their already imperiled businesses by capitulating to bad-faith right-wing criticism. They have a harder time seeing that the Democratic Party has fallen victim to the same kind of self-sabotage.

This perspective says so much about the beholder.
If you see service work as inherently relegated to the most-marginalized & you can’t fathom an examination to that perspective, you are actively participating in the devaluation of service work which enables the economic component of marginalization

None of these jokers care about free speech - ya know, the actual kind, that keeps you out of trouble w your government.
They only care about their checks💸And their egos cannot fathom earning less money because they are not considered funny anymore.

People are saying this is just ‘DEI’
But this is miles closer to the argument that Incels just need sex workers.
For both of these kinds of guys - they do not want the actual exchange of human interaction, they want unquestioned authority.

Whether they're blaming vaccines and Tylenol, or selling dubious "remedies," what they're really doing is promoting the perception that families (and especially mothers) can prevent and treat Autism. And thus also the perception that people with Autism and their families don't need social support.

Instead of the angry finger-pointing, can we just for one day agree that it is horrible and monstrous to shoot another human? On behalf of my family, we send love to the Kirks and to all the children, parents and innocents who fall victim to senseless gun violence.

And I don’t think media illiteracy is a great excuse for being unaware of racism when a person’s entire brand reached peak velocity specifically by saying racist garbage directly into the camera.

Like everything else in their ideology: they despise plurality.
Everyone must believe & experience exactly what they do. And imagining something different is not just distasteful, to them it’s criminal.
