"Every day I have to marvel at what the billionaires and FOX News pulled off. They got working whites to hate the very people that want them to have more pay, clean air, water, free healthcare and the power to fight back against big banks & big corps."

Imo we have a system of grace and forgiveness for the rich and powerful and merciless, arbitrary harshness for most other people

"the fact that trump is the most corrupt president in U.S. history isn't of interest to the brunchlord press"
"peter baker's latest "analysis" column sounds like a fan marking out over his favorite wrestler."

But if crime goes UP under a Democrat, or liberal, then clearly they are to blame.

For instance: If murders in Baltimore were UP 40%, then Mayor Brandon Scott would be a national figure. Instead it's gone down that amount so no one knows who he is.

Even MSNBC only mentions the word "crime" in the months right before an election!
And not accurately reporting blue states being massively safer than red states with even lower overall effective taxes!
Narrative perpetually stacked where only white conservatives are even "heartland" real Americans

It was bs. The cops had this guy twice, right in their hands, but they let him go bc he looked like one of them. They ignored the obvious in favor of bigoted stereotypes

First it was 'may have seen his vehicle at the residence', then 'saw his vehicle at the residence', then 'may have seen him at the residence', then 'saw him leaving the residence', now we have 'exchanged gunfire with police BEFORE the murder'.
I know facts take time to come to light, but yikes.

Or that immigrants pay taxes to fund the plain clothes, masked bandits that traffic them to security max prisons where they’ll rot.

Or that wealthy Republicans are the main employers of immigrants for services that benefit themselves...

A huge part of why we’re here right now as a country is because there’s been absolutely no social or political penalty for demonizing urban Americans & insinuating they’re not real citizens worthy of the same rights & respect as Real Folkz in small town 🇺🇸. Its metastasized into a fascist cancer.

This stuff’s been happening in WI for years, with Scott Walker & Robin Vos lying about what goes on at UW & suggesting the votes of the state’s 2 largest cities shouldn’t count. It’s fundamentally incompatible with democracy & we shouldn’t tolerate it, much less standalone block quote in the papers.

"If democratic leaders said “We can all agree Mississippi is a shithole” we would never hear the end of it.
Putting the merits aside, it’s wild how the media treats GOP hatred of the majority of the country as normal."

Racist "real American" and "heartland" conservative bias at media like NYT is so pervasive that senior editors and politics reporters admitted they don't think Black Americans count as Midwestern
Living in bucolic cities in blue states while demonizing them and claiming to know "heartland" America

Imagine even a single municipal-level Democrat said this:
"We must expand efforts to detain & deport Illegal Aliens in America’s small towns, where Millions of Illegal Aliens reside. These, & rural areas are core of the GOP Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base”

Again, Cities are where most Real Folkz live, & Real Folkz are urban residents, & we need to stop tolerating this absolute fascist nonsense. It's a cancer on our society.
