He wished it could be as respectable and orthodox as spying. But somehow in his hands the traditional tools and attitudes were always employed toward mean ends: cloak for a laundry sack, dagger to peel potatoes, dossiers to fill up dead Sunday afternoons ...

also lmao at Trump currently being 40 points behind even Dubbya 2000 at this point post-election. i cant wait until he starts actually enacting his neocon globalist agenda that makes Dubbya look like LBJ or FDR and he gets booed off stage at a rally

If Trump actually lays out a neocon globalist agenda, he's going to get a 180 from the mainstream press. They will praise him for "finding his conscience" and keeping America "true to its ideals", interspersing that praise with dead kids' last tweets and stories about this second failure at a Russian reset, placing blame squarely on murderous mad Vlad. The panels on CNN will discuss whether we should put troops on the ground to save dying children, or to best protect our strategic interests, and after a heated debate will agree to settle on "both."

Then, we'll enter a war and have a lot of victories over a week or three or ten, and the media won't critically evaluate any of it, simply reporting all the action and how brave our men and women are to be fighting these savages to protect freedom and democracy. Plenty of good reporters will be looking into the reality, but they'll be told to sit on their story "a few more weeks" for months. In the mean time, Trump will stand under a banner on a destroyer that says "TOTAL VICTORY - UNDER BUDGET & AHEAD OF SCHEDULE"

Then, some months later, we'll start to see the quagmire, war support will plummet, and suddenly - surprise! - the war wasn't to save dying children, there were no WMDs and we just entered another foreverwar. It's okay though, don't blame us journalists, we got swindled, we're like you! What, you want us to investigate our sources? But they're our sources, they wouldn't tell us anything if we did that. We'd lose our access! Look, the second we got wind of how bad this was, we started digging. *prints stories they'd been holding off for months to "review for accuracy"*

And that is the first time Trump will get booed off stage at a rally.

also can't we just make politicians pass a certification that makes sure that they're at least moderately competent or smart enough to run

then again, we'd make super politicians who would really screw us over

just make them run through hoops over the most arcane questions possible and have them solve riddles to figure out their mental acuity

like riddles that have to be solved on the fly with some ingenuity

Approval polls are meaningless when a large portion of the nation is in a personality cult with Donnie at the center, and an even larger portion of the nation doesn't give a gently caress either way.

Yeah. We are kind of in a hosed up place. Consumerism and entertainment culture (vast swathes of entertainment on demand any time you ever want it ever) make it so easy to not give a gently caress. Or people are in dire straits and scraping by so they don't really have time to care.

Like, it probably was never that much better throughout the entirety of human civilization, but people now have the means to be informed like never before. In the past it was a matter of being physically incapable of getting a lot of info. Now we are willfully ignorant and...yeah. I'm making GBS threads and I don't really have anywhere else to go with this lol.v
