Considering what I've heard about how they treat it all like pro wrestling, and a big show, and pat one another on the back for their performances, this sounds spot-on. They're here for fame, recognition, and fans, not public service.
Maybe there needs to be a DEI like program for assholes from rich families to get them some airtime on their favourite programs.
I thought it was called nepotism...but that's obviously failed.
And unlike DEI, it needs to focus on their lack of qualifications and merit
Sadly, I often think this was the moment when Trump decided to run for President. McCain and Obama would trade quips since both are quite funny, but Trump neither had the ability to tell a joke or the humility to accept teasing.
I’ve also heard that republicans typically make for shit artists bc they’re so rigid in their views but are more likely to succeed in business (my guess is the psychopath part). And opposite is generally true of liberals - better artists but not as successful with leading big businesses. 🤷♀️
Call your legislators red or blue and let them know what’s on your mind. This is a tool recommended by the Meidas Touch Network who says calling makes politicians cave more than emails.
Thanks! I saw it on Meidas Touch Network, looked it up, & thought that it was an important resource to spread around on Bluesky. It’s my version of holding up signs on the side of the road to help inform people. I just hope I’m not getting on anybody’s nerves. 😅
My idea is even if it’s not entirely relevant, maybe someone in a football thread sees it & clicks on it. I can remove it from yours if you’d like. I’m trying to not be so anxious & regret not doing more if shit hits the fan entirely. I try to stick to anything that has a hint of this coup. 😥
I appreciate what you’re saying, and I don’t so much mind it on mine, just keep in mind others may wind up reporting it as spam. regardless, thanks for what you’re trying to do!
So true!
Ben Shapiro is a failed screenwriter.
Steve Bannon is a failed screenwriter.
Stephen Miller went to hs with Hollywood kids and got booed off the stage at an assembly.
Chris Rufo (notorious anti-DEI crusader) is a failed documentarian.
Charlie Kirk is a college dropout wannabe media mogul.

he's a dickhead, so at least he should have a partial decapitation. hypothetically.
