They were used to this. They are narcissistic aristocrats inside the palace gates. We're kicking them out...to the curb. It's over and not a minute too soon.
Expect the cacophony of tantrums to dial up to 11.
IGNORE THEM. There are two things a narcissist hates:
- being questioned
- being ignored
Let them melt down in their own pooh. They deserve it!
Team Reality is WINNING for the first time in decades.
It’s hard to ignore a car chase or a dumpster fire-hee, hee 😂🤯
Pop the champagne and grab the popcorn. This is the greatest show on earth!
Joe and Mika are two of the biggest most disgusting narcissists on the cable soap opera series. I would gladly assist with a touch of gasoline to that inevitable dumpster fire 🔥
The other day I turned on Morning Shmoe and had the sound off with just the closed captioning on and the amount of words that come out of his mouth PREFACING a question is brobdingnagian. I'm surprised that when he finishes his question he doesn't say to the guest, "That's all the time we have in this block. We sure hope you can come back & listen to me bloviate another time." 🙄
I am hoping, really hoping it continues. We have a lot of dragging weights hanging on to the last threads of control, mainly from the populace that is still in heavy denial that the media would do such a dastardly psy-op for so many years. Brains are mush, the fog is real
I don't know about you, Ryan, but personally I think that the period between now and the end of next January is going to get very, very interesting. Fasten your seatbelts everyone...the Fat Lady hasn't finished her aria.
It IS rather mean. And with Advent coming I guess I'm gonna have to add something extra to my sacrifice in preparation for Christmas. Sometimes it IS good to be bad. 🤭
I heard a clip somewhere, probably X, that the democrats are forming a shadow government. It there any truth to that? I know they are so poison and would encourage their followers, and the media to follow them, give alternate news as if they are living in the "real world with their 47%" They can be ugly and defiant
The Aum Shinrikyo, that cult terrorist organization that attacked the Tokyo subway with sarin, had a shadow government. Not exactly an admirable group. Nor is it one to imitate.
The "bias by omission" is how they continue to lie about the 2020 election not being stolen when the fake news press never published or investigated any of the election fraud claims. They just declared it false and ignored it. It's good to see how that lie worked out for them.
I had a "flashback" of when people complained that their story was "below the fold." If only they knew what was coming... more of the same but on an even bigger scale. Then again, some stories never made it to the paper at all. Dorothy Killagan (wrong spelling) was one who did just a few times too many for some. Remember her?
A number of years ago I read that Dorothy Kilgallen's death was suspicious. Here is a NY Post article about it from 2016. In the article a book is referenced - "The Reporter Who Knew Too Much" by Mark Shaw. I just downloaded it from my library. I'll be interested to see what he says.
It's hilariously ironic that one of the best, and definitely MY favorite, weapon to use against the lying and obfuscation of the Propaganda and Indoctrination machine, aka, the corporate media, is part of the strategy of extreme radical revolutionary, Saul Alinsky. Straight out of Rules for Radicals, folks, Snark Rules, and those who thought THEY did are evacuating bowels and bladders as never before, but NOT in the toilets. Fun is all around us!
Sheeee-it. The media is the same as a lying, cheating spouse. Just ask anyone who has been cheated on. All of this was used above upon the Cheat-ee by the Cheat-er.
Bias by the use of phoney "experts" who have been telling us for 4 years athat the mRNA vax was safe and effective (can they be tried for murdering a million dead Americans?) and that Ukraine was defeating Russia, and not stealing most of the aid we sent them, for 3 years, when any bright 10 yo would know otherwise....
Yes, that is true. I had to read one of their eco-bullshit books in high school. It was all nonsense. There was a very thick book written by one of the eco-fascists that I had to read in college. It had an extensive appendix of references which made it look very authoritive, but if you read the footnotes you discovered they were to UN meetings, funding letters and other crap that had nothing to do with scientific studies or actual evidence of the claims being made. The eco-fascists have always been liars.
it was the uni-sound of the media that first red-flagged the covid story for me. After hearing the same sentence repeated 1000 times (the virus originated on a wet market in Wuhan etc). I wondered if any journalist had been there - they sounded like a broken record. In February 2020 I red some dissonant stories, one translated from a Korean source - and that set me on track. On Substack no less. I found all you dissonant voices and realized I was not alone thinking 'different'. But some people are so into the govt narrative (and probably paycheck) that they can see no other truth than the wide road.. which usually leads to the abyss.
🔵 war is profitable, so there’s an incentive for more and more unwinnable wars
🔵 the financial Ponzi scheme of fiat currency is at grave risk; there needs to be an exit plan that saddles the “useless eaters” with the fallout of the excesses of the criminal cartels that have taken over the “government”
🔵 the previously sleepy masses are starting to wake up, and the oligarchs are feeling increasingly threatened and consequently are acting with accelerated urgency
🔵 the collapsing mainstream media means the oligarchs are losing control of the message. This threatens their power in a way they have never seen.
And! That this shattering is their personal apocalypse. Their *ideas* are their access to the club, held like a golden ticket, and have become their very identity. In that sad circumstance (identity by exterior validation) being cast out of "consensus" IS to be cast out of the safety of the village, to walk the "wilds" and "die" alone.
There's no good substitute for slow- building an interior barometer of self-reliance with which to check the weather outside. Sampling ideas for what works - and what doesn't - is also slow process which sometimes requires public failure and embarrassments. This especially was painful to so many of my imposter-syndrome GenX classmates at the IV league I attended: even their curiosity had to be curated according to some standard, and their "achievements " approved by social standards. It was a rare peron who said "eff-it" and took classes they didn't understand just to learn something new. And their kids seemed to have picked up where they left off, treating such college as an on-ramp to status, rather than a place to stress-test the value of ideas for both cultural evolution AND endurance. The results in legacy media speak for themselves. A guy like Rogan knows how to take a hit while he speaks with anyone who will speak with him. Rachel Maddow? Forgot to remember that performative yelling at a camera isn't at all the same thing.
El Gato previously noted that people like this _are_ The Ideas.
They're incapable of independent thought so they latch onto what seems Smart to them - by which they mean "Holding The Idea is license for me to divide the world into Good People and Death Eaters, and I can mock them and marginalize them and hope they die because Only Horrible People reject The Idea."
Thank you -- wonderful recollection! What "first red-flagged the covid story for me" was following the details and stats from that cruise ship ['Diamond Princess'] which was stuck at sea for [weeks?] with all those sick old folks confined in close proximity with the crew aboard the ship. But -- at the end of their cruise, the numbers were *ordinary* for the flu, *not* extraordinary, not scary, not frightful.
Yes! Me toooo. I could not believe it when I heard it. And the free stuff they offered to get jabbed? Sorry. A hot Krispy Kreme is pleasure for 50 seconds but a shot is forever. Hell No.
The government paycheck class and all of their attached remoras and barnacles are an enormous voting bloc. Coloured bright blue. Were that not a factor, Trump's plurality would have been much larger.
Who the hell does he think he's yelling at? Elon Musk?
Elon did not say "I am the media now". He gave the credit where it was due -- to the people that create and disseminate content on the platform that he provides.
Just like "science" can be done by anybody who understands the principles of objective inquiry, journalism can be done by anybody with information, knowledge, insight, and an internet connection.
You no longer need to own a printing press or a broadcast antenna. That kind of "control of the means of production" means nothing now.
We are in a sense reliving the 16th century. Luther did not cause the Reformation. Th Scientific Method did not start the Enlightenment. The printing press did, as it took away the Church's monopoly on written communication.
The plot of The Name of the Rose: Authoritarian Censorship.
A priest (played by Sean Connery in the movie) is investigating a series mysterious deaths at an Abbey, the victims all sharing a black tongue and lips as symptoms.
Turns out they'd just gotten a copy of some Dark Ages version of the Kama Sutra in the Forbidden Section of the Library. One of the old priests thought it an abomination for anyone to read so he coated its pages with poison (something like cyanide or strychnine) and, when the reader licked his finger to turn the page, they self-dosed. The more they read, they greater the dosage.
And don't you go thinking that current censorship aficionados wouldn't want to kill us. They so totally would if they could ... get someone else to do it for them.
Here are the types of media bias in my mind:
-Bias by omission
-Bias by selection of sources
-Bias by story selection
-Bias by placement
-Bias by labeling
-Bias by spin
The press is GUILTY on all charges!

Well said.
Addendum:
Actually, there are three things a narcissist hates:
#3 - being laughed at.
Meme on, all.
Meme on, Wayne.
Meme on, Garth.
Yes!
#3 is the worst one of all.

Good riddance asswipes!
What if Rogan really replaces Rachel? That would be fun too.
Yes! Joe jokingly (I think?!) replied to Elon that he would replace Richard and dress like him with the fake glasses, too. 😆
This is just so much fun to watch. Every day is a gift 💝
Yup, Rachel's glasses and "I will tell all of the same lies."
The other day I turned on Morning Shmoe and had the sound off with just the closed captioning on and the amount of words that come out of his mouth PREFACING a question is brobdingnagian. I'm surprised that when he finishes his question he doesn't say to the guest, "That's all the time we have in this block. We sure hope you can come back & listen to me bloviate another time." 🙄
Yes... they are not really asking questions. Their intent is to get camera time.
Looks like it's time to go long on Big Redenbacher.
Been saying this for weeks
I am hoping, really hoping it continues. We have a lot of dragging weights hanging on to the last threads of control, mainly from the populace that is still in heavy denial that the media would do such a dastardly psy-op for so many years. Brains are mush, the fog is real
Agree
I don't know about you, Ryan, but personally I think that the period between now and the end of next January is going to get very, very interesting. Fasten your seatbelts everyone...the Fat Lady hasn't finished her aria.
I stocked up on popcorn and bourbon just for the next 6-8 weeks of showtime.
"stocked up on popcorn and bourbon"
*swoon*
what a great combo, and I do not even like bourbon..... that much
L'Chayim!
For sure. Probably the next 4 years
🤔I’m gonna need a bigger truck. Did not calculate for 4 years.
We can take it in turns. I'll set up a calendar item.
I didn't know Joy Behar could sing. 🤔

Straight from the Halls of Congress last week:
https://www.facebook.com/RepWileyNickel/videos/rep-nickel-calls-for-a-shadow-cabinet-part-1/1085765103243279/
by the way, I am blocked from FB because I said something two years ago that was against the rules
yes, I knew it 😳 these people are mental.
I saw this too! They are like 7 year olds who always want it to be THEIR turn.
The Aum Shinrikyo, that cult terrorist organization that attacked the Tokyo subway with sarin, had a shadow government. Not exactly an admirable group. Nor is it one to imitate.

or when the story was below the perch in the bird cage.
Yep. You know that the NYT has hit rock bottom when the resident kittycat prefers the carpet to the cat-box.
Or around the fish in the Circular File, whatever.
In the corporate press(including WSJ) I always find the important stories on page 6 or 7.
A number of years ago I read that Dorothy Kilgallen's death was suspicious. Here is a NY Post article about it from 2016. In the article a book is referenced - "The Reporter Who Knew Too Much" by Mark Shaw. I just downloaded it from my library. I'll be interested to see what he says.

Thanks for that.
Oswald didn't act alone!
We will find out because Trump has said he is going to declassify the investigation documents. I expect we will know by February.
Release all of it
It's hilariously ironic that one of the best, and definitely MY favorite, weapon to use against the lying and obfuscation of the Propaganda and Indoctrination machine, aka, the corporate media, is part of the strategy of extreme radical revolutionary, Saul Alinsky. Straight out of Rules for Radicals, folks, Snark Rules, and those who thought THEY did are evacuating bowels and bladders as never before, but NOT in the toilets. Fun is all around us!
Exactly. Irony and projection are tightly correlated imo.
Ew

Lol I originally read "bias" as "bliss" and you know what? It still works, for the smugtards on the left 🤣
exactly....smugnorance
Oh, nice. I'm going to try to fit that into conversation sometime soon.
over thanksgiving? hmmm better not
I double dog dare ya!
🤣
Bias by advertisement
10 minutes on any channel will show you who owns them. Big Pharma
For sure. Nice addition.
Sheeee-it. The media is the same as a lying, cheating spouse. Just ask anyone who has been cheated on. All of this was used above upon the Cheat-ee by the Cheat-er.
Virtually a perfect analogy
Notice there is no Cheet-o there. We want to make America healthy again!
Aw c'mon Sadie - Cheet-os are my favorite!
I love licking the orange powder off my fingers, saving some for later.
I love Cheetos too. But, what exactly are they except deliciously orange chemicals wrapped up in a little package of red-40 dust?
See, I'm building up my tolerance to chemicals. For the Big One. Resistance.
Plus, my doctor says I'm not getting enough nitrites in my diet.
Lol. You're funny, Sadie!
Agreed! ...and once you have been cheated on, the rules change.
All bets are off and you become The Hunter. Better than being the prey!
I just like how you say "Sheeee-it"
💯‼️ I’m saving this comment!
you missed "bias by changing definition of commonly accepted terms" -

Absolutely. Don't get me started there...:)
Let it die, let it die, let it die, let it die
Whisper words of wisdom, let it die
And being MOCKED.
exactly. like gato always says:
"mock them until they cry....and then mock them for crying".
one of the best lines ever
He has a supreme talent for doing that!
Bias by the use of phoney "experts" who have been telling us for 4 years athat the mRNA vax was safe and effective (can they be tried for murdering a million dead Americans?) and that Ukraine was defeating Russia, and not stealing most of the aid we sent them, for 3 years, when any bright 10 yo would know otherwise....
They have been lying about the climate for over 30 years.
More like 50.
Only back in the '70s they were predicting a big helping of Ice Age with a side of Ozone.
Yes, that is true. I had to read one of their eco-bullshit books in high school. It was all nonsense. There was a very thick book written by one of the eco-fascists that I had to read in college. It had an extensive appendix of references which made it look very authoritive, but if you read the footnotes you discovered they were to UN meetings, funding letters and other crap that had nothing to do with scientific studies or actual evidence of the claims being made.

Ryan G, speaks for me!

Covid, Ukraine, “Chinese Spy Balloon”, “danger to democracy”, Russian asset, “free and fair, no evidence of vote fraud” and on and on.
It was creepy, clumsy, and obvious to anyone paying attention.
For better or worse, it’s impossible to believe anything on or in “the news”.
“Maliciously wrong until proved otherwise” is how I look at it.
“Prove it” is a safe and effective position.
Who is behind the distortion, omission, obfuscation,outright lyeing. Why? Power over people never lasts. WTF?
Can anyone here shed a little light please? Thankyou in advance.
I think it’s a confluence of factors:
🔵 war is profitable, so there’s an incentive for more and more unwinnable wars
🔵 the financial Ponzi scheme of fiat currency is at grave risk; there needs to be an exit plan that saddles the “useless eaters” with the fallout of the excesses of the criminal cartels that have taken over the “government”
🔵 the previously sleepy masses are starting to wake up, and the oligarchs are feeling increasingly threatened and consequently are acting with accelerated urgency
🔵 the collapsing mainstream media means the oligarchs are losing control of the message. This threatens their power in a way they have never seen.
Every point makes perfect sense to me. Any thoughts on who "the oligarchs" actually are.
WHO is only partly behind the lying.

Nobody holds onto a dead position like a midwit who's spent their whole lives trying to APPEAR smart.
They're pretenders, and that's why the delusion of their fictitious reality is shattering right before their very eyes
And! That this shattering is their personal apocalypse. Their *ideas* are their access to the club, held like a golden ticket, and have become their very identity. In that sad circumstance (identity by exterior validation) being cast out of "consensus" IS to be cast out of the safety of the village, to walk the "wilds" and "die" alone.

The Pangolin story was straight out hilarious.
Indeed! From what bodily orfice was the "pangolin" yarn pulled? Let me guess...
yes. lolol.
then remember they tried to blame it on racoon dogs?
I guess I would too if i had a pangolin for a pet!
