"placeholder text" "concept art" either the temporary thing you put in matters to the process, in which case you need to get a human to work on it, or it doesn't, in which case you can just as easily put a bright pink rectangle that says PLACEHOLDER in and save everyone time and effort

Warmonger given peace prize. Sounds about right for the people who gave president drone strike the same prize.

Me, a person who made wild assertions with no sources, now demands my opponent ideologically to provide sources that contradict my dogmatic beliefs.

Sincerely, a very serious person.

Lmao, cleaner air. Nixon gave you the EPA.

Everyone who disagrees with me or has politics different than what they tell me to think on Rachel maddow? Oh they are all Russian trolls.

She realized she needed $500k liquid not $350k. Honest mistake.

Respectable news outlets have always been owned by rich freaks with unique bigotries who will always hire some other bigots who share that bigotry. No paper is a monolith but the ruling class is always looking to keep us divided.

What's wild is seeing the clicks for controversy model expand up the chain of acceptability. It's one thing to expect the NYT to be a bloodthirsty rag for war. It's another to watch in real time social progress advance and then get rolled back. Which is always happening.

We search for justification for our beliefs. That's not new. What's new is clicks for controversy, and the ability to easily spread wild stories. Everyone in North Korea has to get the same haircut. In North Korea sometimes they have to push the trains. Complete nonsense.

This is true for all ideology we believe in. We take on stories and tell ourselves they are real. Gas cars are cleaner than EVs because batteries are bad for the environment. Solar panels don't last very long. Trans people are raping women in the bathroom.
