So that they grab their guns and shout down and attempt to intimidate all the sane people. Also there are plenty of lovely young republican CEO wannabes who watch it on TV and alt-rights who still watch it via streams believe it or not. I feel like it's really dangerous to keep framing GOP supporters are harmless/decrepit old people, when they have a decent of Gen X supporters along with the young and so goddamn crazy alt-right bastards. Sure they're trying to drag farther to the right but they still vote GOP. the black husserl posted:There is no way the mayor of ATL isn't going to be a 100% corrupt grifter, black woman democrat has nothing to do with it.

There is no way Trump turns down the chance to deliver his highest profile speech as President, covered by world news and watched by much of the nation, with the disgusting spectacle of the GOP giving him a blowjob the whole time. He absolutely lives for poo poo like this.

I am not nor will ever say that these albino creatures are not hateful evil things, I'm just saying Fox is in competition with brietbart, Info Wars and Most Importantly One America News, to be the sole source of vitriol for these people to get marching orders from. Old people tend to favor Fox right now, but that could change if they aren't pro-nazi enough. i am harry posted:Not scared an inch by this vision; White riots in the form of old white fucks driving their Escalades in procession with civil war era flags hanging from their window [e: and young whites marching around in plastic roman armor] is not a threat to our way of life, especially if they martyr someone again.

Of those diehards, most are elderly; the average age of a Fox viewer is like 70. Sure, you've got the Alt-Right, but the vast majority of those guys are pasty internet memelords who may have guns but certainly don't have the will to use them. There will not be any sort of organised uprising. This isn't to say that there won't be isolated incidents. I think that another Charlottesville is actually pretty likely under this scenario. But while that would be individually tragic, it will not in any way undermine the stability of the United States Government.

Murdoch got 52 billion in the Fox sale which I assume is to pump Fox News back up to combat Breitbart and the other rising fringe elements on the right also I'm so loving tired of media outlets trying to humanize Trump voters in these tiny 3000 person towns, it's the same story from Ohio to Kentucky to Montana! there's no new territory to tread here, focus on something else like the mobilization of minorities to build Democrat infrastructure in Alabama or the causes of the loving sweep in Virginia Carlosologist fucked around with this message at 21:02 on Dec 17, 2017 |

Anyone who believes that all republicans are old people must not live in the south, is all I can think. There's plenty of shitheaded young white people out there MAGA-ing it up. It's just as easy, if not easier, to get indoctrinated into such a worldview now as it ever was. I had a 16 year old clarinet student who wore a 'FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS VOTE DEMOCRAT' shirt to his lessons with me more than once. You think that kid knew what the gently caress he was talking about? Hell no he didn't. He wound up going to the same university where I'm finishing my DMA, and five years later he still posts memes and poo poo in support of people like Ted Cruz. Who was ever going to argue with him and change his mind? His peers? Fat chance. Me? Hell nah, I'm not talking about politics to students and undergrads, that's how you get fired. His parents? most fox news viewers are definitely old, and the GOP skews old, but there's lots of young people too.

I don't see another Charolletsville happening because that was back when the Nazis weren't afraid to show their faces in public. They were emboldened from the early months of Trump and mobilized about 500 people from across the country and were faced by a group smaller than them. Now they are confronted by tens of thousands of counterprotestors every time any of them sticks their head above ground.

New thing on the alt-right is claiming that McVeigh was a deep state agent paid by the CIA. They actually don't have much of a taste for real-life violence; that would require leaving their basements. Isolated incidents by lone crazies? Sure, but that's always been a thing. We need to have better mental health care systems in this country to avoid those (see: the San Ysidro McDonald's shooting which literally could have entirely been prevented.) An organized uprising? Better make sure it doesn't coincide with the time period when the latest ep of My Little Pony airs.

Well, he was the only one that was outward about it, but the families that had enough money to hire a private clarinet teacher in Louisiana/Mississippi also, unfortunately, tend to be white and republican. I'm actually struggling to think of a private student I had whose family didn't fall into this category; the only ones I can think of were students through the university I was teaching at.

So this is a thing https://www.cbsnews.com/news/sen-john-mccain-returns-to-arizona-will-miss-vote-on-gop-tax-bill/ quote:McCain left Washington Sunday and is heading back to his home state to spend the holidays with his family. He will not be on hand for the final vote on the GOP tax passage expected for early this week. It is unclear when McCain might return to Washington. Will this matter? quote:Despite a razor-thin margin needed to pass the measure, McCain's presence will not likely be the determining factor in the vote. Two critical senators -- Bob Corker of Tennessee and Marco Rubio of Florida -- announced their support for the bill last week after initially saying they would oppose earlier versions. lmao "critical senator Marco Rubio"

Zwabu posted:There was a little tiny period of time, either right around the nomination, or right after the inauguration, I can't remember which (I think it was right after inauguration) where Fox actually had a little bit of negative coverage of Trump. I honestly feel the main thing for Fox going all in the far right wing of the party was propping up Sean, who is clearly more entangled with Trump than anyone. Hannity is their last big name to draw crowds, and they even brought in Carlson, Watters, and Ingram to supplement that. It is why even after Hannity's dumb poo poo move of pissing on their own sponsors, by telling his viewers to BOYCOTT THEM, they stick with him. Plus I think Murdoch Jr. Is waiting for dad to piss off to hell to rebrand. After he kicks the bucket I can see the hardcore morons out.

Third or fourth most powerful owner in the NFL, likely plantation enthusiast Jerry Richardson is being investigated for sexual misconduct and racist remarks. It's uh not good. https://www.si.com/jerry-richardson-carolina-panthers-settlements-workplace-misconduct-sexual-harassment-racial-slur quote:he’d offer comment, drawing from a store of one-liners he’d recycle each week. Among those in heaviest rotation: Show me how you wiggle to get those jeans up. I bet you had to lay down on your bed to fit into those jeans. Did you step into those jeans or did you have to jump into them? quote:He would notice when their nails were not up to his standards, and pay for them to get manicures. Multiple female employees recalled to SI that Richardson asked them if he could personally shave their legs. quote:He would invite female employees out to lunch, and in keeping with his reputation as a self-styled gentleman, he would open the car door for his guests. Once they were seated, however, he would insist on fastening their seatbelt for them, reaching across their lap and brushing his hand across their breasts before putting the belt in the clasp. quote:After drafting Newton in 2011, Richardson memorably asked the player, “Did you get crazy after the draft and go out and get any tattoos or piercings? Do I have to check you for anything?” Earlier this year, some Panthers expressed frustration when Richardson indicated that players addressing social issues could be subject to punishment.
