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.

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce.
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.

After Trump proposed a TikTok ban in 2020, billionaire TikTok investor Jeff Yass gave millions to anti-Biden campaigns. 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.

I know that people are going to flock right back to that app, but even though I think they’re all wrong for doing it, Congress passed a law and the Supreme Court agreed unanimously and now a guy who *isn’t even president* is putting it back online and this is very bad.

to 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

I saw someone say how during his tenure, the CEO of UHC was responsible for more deaths than any serial killer in our history. And it’s not hyperbole. Yet those deaths are not viewed the same as murder bc they were the by product of making shareholders $$. The system is beyond broken.
