Al Gore loudly booing a US Commerce Secretary at a bankers’ forum should be a Futurama joke instead of real life.

The worst someone can be on social media is annoying, and so if a lot of your reality is interpolated by that, it becomes the same as ‘evil’
The USA somehow lost the ability to be mildly annoyed and it turns out there being a middle ground between "I like this person" and "This person must be publicly executed in front of their loved ones" was load bearing for human civilization.
this is all it’s really about for them. Not domestic policy, not “economic anxiety”, just an endless desire to punish stand-ins for the Mommy who forced them take a bath, even if it tanks their own quality of life.

Finally looked up the "essay" that triggered this whole story and, sheesh.

15 years ago I got a Kindle and was like "woah! It looks like ink on paper even though it's a touchscreen".
And it turns out that's all we ever needed out of an e-reader

Do these guys not know any boomers? My parents are smitten with these "baby Trump fights with baby Putin" AI slop videos. Even if people have concerns about the impacts of AI, I don't see how you can claim that everyone obviously hates it. These videos have millions of views!
by all indications “literally all of society mildly likes this abominable scam homunculus” is much closer to the truth. I don’t see how you can win if you are actively in denial about the reality you’re resisting

Based on the discourse from earlier today, the appropriate leftist corollary is to say "it's not a big deal for the US military to condone Nazism and the KKK, since the US military is bad and therefore it makes sense for it to do bad things"

"I don't mind being asked questions about the Epstein files"
That's just not true lol
Trump's been getting asked these questions for months, and it obviously rankles him.

Q: Why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now?
TRUMP: It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you're a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him an insubordinate question

In 2024, there were protests every week about Biden providing arms to a particular middle eastern ally of ours.
But I guess that's not a concern anymore. When a Republican is in office, there's no need to be dramatic and set yourself on fire over something like this.

A big difference between now and like 20 years ago is that conservative elites used to not stew in conservative propaganda for the rubes like Limbaugh and would mostly read relatively legit news sources like WSJ.
