relatedly, why is the entire political press completely uninterested in the verifiable fact that JD Vance has close relationships with online nazis?

Nazis are in rhe oval office, so that's not a real thing anymore. Musk provoked with a few nazi salutes 🤷

Still too polite and caught in the normalcy trap

is drowning in all that shit.
I’m a left winger . Kinda AOC.
But in all the shock , horror and self pitty I must all Liberals ask who was responsible for the maintenance of the Hoover dam in the last 35 years? What have they done to prevent this break to happen?

One of the methods of Steve Bannon and „Project 2025“ is to flood the entire society with shit
10.000.000 votes , house AND senate for MAGA .
It’s like if the Hoover dam has broken .
And if you see, what happened with Zelensky? The info about an dangerous but unimportant creature like Vance 1/

Does not generate enough clicks.
It's not about facts, but engagement - and this requires too much work for too little gain.
Trump becoming president despite a blatant disregard of facts did not come out of nowhere. It has long been prepared by a failing fourth estate.

Same goes for all the crazy TESCREAL, network states, eugenics etc. stuff and Yarvin’s influence that seems to dominate the thinking of people like Musk, Thiel, Andreessen, Sacks etc. - you would think this would make a great news story, but no coverage in any European media as far as i know. Why??

They actively ignore it because it implies he not only isn't listening to what the press says but also that he despises them, hates their guts and thinks they should all be fired and/or be locked up.

Hard to "report unbiased" about such a despicable man.
So they try to ignore the disposable part.

First, they can't process, next, they don't want to process

What also baffles me is this:

They know and don't care.

They consider everything except themselve as resources or useless. To be exploited or to be extinguished.
Hunger games incoming (and hunger games is the best case scenario).

Mir scheint schon seit Musk, dass man in den USA mit der kalkulierten Ambivalenz eine Grauzone geschaffen hat, in der man mit Rechtsextremismus-Vorwürfen mehr zu verlieren hat, als derjenige dem die Vorwürfe gemacht werden.

They probably don't care. But I would also take into account, for at least a part of their behavior, normalcy bias and/or ontological shock, like “this can’t be real? This can’t be happening!?”

All you need to know is that Vance likes Curtis Yarvin and then read a few Yarvin quotes

They were labelled left-wing/ liberal by the right-wing for so long that they themselves now believe they have a liberal bias that they need to compensate for. Now the press doesn't dare call them out as the Nazis that they are

Für Deutschland: Weil für die Entscheider (oder die Zielgruppe? Irgendwer wichtiges) Internet immernoch Neuland und irrelevant ist, außer man kann drüber schreiben dass Teenies sich Waschmittelpods reinpfeifen.
