Come Monday he'll report on something completely inconsequential or already debunked, say "Boom!" and then move on to his next thing.

Yeah, Hannity's got a new "boom!" every night and its never anything, and usually the same thing as the day before just reworded or with a new unidentified source.

Video of him and his cronies being frog marched out of the Mar a Lago, followed by a very public and very damning trial surpassing the OJ trial fervor of the 90s, would be able to shake a lot of the Republican crowd that hasn’t gone full MAGA. The cynical ploy towards political ends on the part of monied conservative interests predates Trump by at least 20 years in execution (FOX) and probably 40 years in planning (think tanks). It is not some enchantment that will go *poof* if Trump falls. Large swaths of the population have been programmed to distrust “mainstream” voices and have knee jerk revulsion for anything tarred as “liberal”, and that won’t evaporate.

This QAnon poo poo is insane. When I visit /pol/ there's usually a very popular, very visible Q thread, with a cadre of loyal Hardy Boys getting all hot and bothered working together to "decode the clues." It makes me think about the young right's largely invisible pipelines to extremism and paranoia, and how they interact with the older right's media distrust and apocalyptic thinking. John Q. Anon has worked out how to market paranoid conspiracy theories to the I Love Bees generation. And now Hannity's acting as a direct conduit from the anonymous underground straight into the amygdalas of Fox News viewers. If there's a way out of this we'd better find it fast. Personally I like Jordan Peterson's solution: appeal to the young white male's ennui about his own suffering, but guide him toward mystical Christian values rather than nihilism. I know most of you don't think very highly of him but I'm a big fan of his project.

I was looking for 2017-2018 info on whether Amazon is costing the world more jobs than it creates and I found this fuckin' thing from Forbes.quote:If they are more efficient at providing retail services per unit of human labour, which is what that allegation is, then this is something we should welcome. Because that freed up human labour can go and produce something else--and we're richer by whatever value we assign to that newly available production that we can then consume. They're applying Say's law to labor, right? Is that what's happening? I'm asking because I don't know anything about anything, but that's what it looks like to me. Second question, is this still a common conservative idea, or did I just find some lone madman? e: and of course the other problem is that the author clearly doesn't mean all Americans when he says "we," but that one's obvious Ragnar34 fucked around with this message at 22:10 on Jan 28, 2018 |

Hannity seems to have taken on the "performance artist" role nearly as well as Alex Jones now. In the race to the bottom all RWM will likely edge towards that end state. Glenn Beck just came a little bit too early to the mainstream.

I think Hannity is at the stage where the abyss is staring back at him and he's unsure which is more empty. He's certainly at some measurable stage and has clearly leveled up in the last month or so. He's min/maxed his conservative character sheet but flailing in the new module with the new rules.

Schmischmenjamin posted:I know most of you don't think very highly of him but I'm a big fan of his project. While we should be speaking to disaffected youth and offering them a way out- Jordan Peterson is not doing that. At All. Or even remotely. Jordan Peterson is a predator that has figured out how to manipulate a particular group of people for personal gain. There is nothing deeper to his actions and no grander purpose to his designs than that. He tells young white males that their problems are all being caused by an other (postmodernists in this case) and that simply removing that other will permit the true natural order to assert itself and bring prosperity to all. Jordan Peterson is snake oil disguised in (frequently misused) academic terminology. He is the Joel Osteen of the academic world, and he is acxtively making the problem worse because he often functions as a stepping stone to more radicalized elements of the Alt-Right. Again, I agree that there should be real outreach efforts to young disaffected males, but Jordan Peterson is the exact opposite of the kind of person you want involved in that outreach.

Glenn Beck just came a little bit too early to the mainstream. I would argue that Glenn Beck just mis-timed his zigs and zags. He became too radical too quickly and got booted off Fox as a result, then he wasn't radical enough to go along with the Trumpstaffel and lost most of the rest of his audience. Also FWIW I predicted the current path of Fox News all the way back in August of 2015: Prester Jane posted:It is my expectation that over the course of these debates Fox News will begin to show clear signs of becoming more and more blatantly racist. I expect them to go as close to 1488 as they can while Narrative Convergence with other major Narrativist media outlets builds. Fox News will first become very much more overtly racist before moving deep into Conspiracy Land, where it's reporting will quickly begin to sound a shitload like Glenn Beck/Alex Jones. (So yeah, expect Fox to start to drift hard towards openly discussing the NWO/Illuminatti/Satanic Plots) I would not be surprised to see Fox become so extreme that we see something like "Fox News Contributor and founder of the Oathkeepers Stewart Rhodes" being brought in to discuss the threat of gun control. We might even see something like Alex Jones appear on a Fox panel in a non-hostile environment where he is treated like a learned genius that understands the intricacies of Oblammo's ties to the 13 bloodlines like no one else. In any case, my expectation is that Fox News will gain full control of the Narrative by absorbing and combining with as much of the rest of Narrativist media as possible. So when "moderates" like (hypothetically) Geraldo eventually get the boot as the result of a Compaction Cycle they will be replaced by someone from another Narrativist media source.

I haven’t read Prester Jane’s thread, but I gather they created a whole intellectual framework to explain concepts. The problem is they post in other threads and assume everyone is familiar with their framework, so we get weird jargon like “compaction cycle” and “narrativist” that just leave me scratching my head.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Hannity was always this crazy. No one took him seriously or paid attention to his poo poo when he was at 10PM on Fox News speaking nonsense and interviewing white nationalists and domestic terrorists and conspiracy theorists. He always had at least one foot in the alt right. Two years ago he was sincerely playing edited videos of Hillary Clinton "spasming" and saying she was deathly sick. A year or two before that he was calling Bill Clinton a proven pedophile because he flew on a plain with Epstein. Before that he was the mainstream voice of the Cliven Bundy standoff. It goes on. What changed is his profile raised because (a) half of Fox News quit or were fired so he failed upwards and (b) he has a personal line to the President of the United States of America. All of a sudden his bullshit matters and people are paying attention. That means more scrutiny and pushback. That means Hannity gets angrier and freaks out more. Cycle continues. I said 6 months ago that I thought him moving into prime time proper would be the beginning of the end for him and I still stand by that. He's lasted a little longer than I expected and Fox News seems to have turned away from any sanity they were briefly considering and fully into Trump News state run propaganda. But its just a matter of time before Hannity pushes another murder conspiracy that angers the victim's family or defends a pedophile while he all but confesses. And I think that poo poo will add up with advertisers and become a bigger problem for him. We've clearly seen that while 2017 was clearly Hannity's highest profile professional year it also had numerous controversies that caused him strife and trouble within Fox News.
