Ready for my rant about #TimeMagazine picking TFG for #Personoftheyear ? I come bearing links.

Why they chose him:

“…individual who, for better or for worse, did the most to shape the world and the headlines over the past 12 months.”

He’s the person of the year for his PR work?

*Rapist of the Year
*Pedofile of the Year
*Fraudster of the Year

All much more applicable and truthful commendations

#timemagazine is a p*ss rag tabloid. No one should care who they think is person of the year. Biden has changed the country for the better and didn’t brag about it constantly to prop up his ego.

They are terrified.

The fact that they had to write a separate article to fact check the interview they did with him is both laughable & disgraceful.

The fact check will be read even less than the interview. All people will see is the cover which appears to be condoning & promoting him!

From the story: "Trump has proved twice now that he can surf to power on anti-incumbent sentiment, a cult of personality, and divisive rhetoric, including racist and xenophobic attacks."

I wouldn't call that "promoting." 🤔

Let me also remind people who #TimeMagazine named #Manoftheyear before it was #personoftheyear back in 1938…

Use this anytime you encounter someone boasting about this “incredible honor”.

If they had chosen him as #personoftheyear & had a cover that displayed the fact that he is a liar, racist, sexist predator, & a danger to this country. I would’ve been fine with that, but they left that for an article that the majority of people will never read, & that is irresponsible #journalism

I have never seen such a pattern of media kiss 😘 up in my entire life. It’s like the media are on an apology tour. There is no reason to give him person of the year and it doesn’t matter if Hitler or the Ayatollah got it before. This is the media normalizing your

* damn my mistakes - this is the media normalizing for access. They weren’t seeking access to Hitler. They’re seeking access to Trump. It’s all about motive
