Why do news outlets keep seeking to out people who’ve done nothing wrong?

Is anyone struggling with the difference between Republicans and Democrats.

Mr. Perfect wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 2:42 pm Yes, the line is forming this morning. Formerly level headed Bloomberg News talking heads are calling for the breakup of Facebook this morning.

When media companies advocate for the breakup of other media companies, we've gone over the edge.

Mr. Perfect wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:08 pm Sorry I meant GOVERNMENT break up of Facebook. Media companies, operating under the first amendment, calling for the government to demolish other media companies. They openly speculated that a new Democrat Federal government would be likely to do that, and that it was good.

kinda like Captain Kirk ordering the computer to initiate the auto self-destruct sequence of the Enterprise.

Or in ORZ working a good horse to death or killing the goose that laid the golden eggs.

every dark cloud has a silver lining.....

Until they show up outside your door.

That's what's changing.

On America's birthday, celebrating the corporate-sponsored revolution.

It’s the Fourth of July, and revolution is in the air. Only in America would it look like this: an elite-sponsored Maoist revolt, couched as a Black liberation movement whose canonical texts are a corporate consultant’s white guilt self-help manual, and a New York Times series rewriting history to explain an election they called wrong.

Much of America has watched in quizzical silence in recent weeks as crowds declared war on an increasingly incoherent succession of historical symbols. Maybe you nodded as Confederate general Albert Pike was toppled or even when Christopher Columbus was beheaded, but it got a little weird when George Washington was emblazoned with “F*ck Cops” and set on fire, or when they went after Ulysses S. Grant, abolitionist Colonel Hans Christian Heg, “Forward,” (a seven-foot-tall female figure meant to symbolize progress), the Portland, Oregon “Elk statue,” or my personal favorite, the former slave Miguel de Cervantes, whose cheerful creations Don Quixote and Sancho Panza were apparently mistaken for reals and had their eyes lashed red in San Francisco.
