The Muppets On PCP posted:there's a really good point near the end about trump taking up the entire news cycle the reason they're not able to get their name out there is because they're extremely boring they can whine all they want about Trump getting more media coverage, but the reason they're being shut out so completely is because they're not willing to be provocative or interesting or controversial at all, they just stick to the boringest possible focus-grouped nothings. decorum doesn't grab headlines if the Dems were willing to shake up the status quo or go outside the range of safe media-approved stances, they could easily take the front page. not necessarily with friendly coverage, but negative coverage seems to have worked out fine for TRUMP

the CHIP defunding is absolutely going to go through the media has largely ignored it, and the few stories that mention it treat it as an unimportant vaguely-worded bullet point with no particular emphasis. the leader of the Senate opposition, Chuck "Useless gently caress" Schumer hasn't even mentioned it. it has zero visibility, our establishment overlords aren't pushing it as an issue, and it's not taking off on its own. McConnell has no reason not to do it in fact, right now, with children's healthcare due to be slashed and everyone else's healthcare also on the chopping block, Chuck the gently caress is busy slamming the Republicans on RUSSIA https://mobile.twitter.com/SenSchumer/status/1005097345607000064

The resistance dorks aren't organizing the kind of opposition you'd think would happen with the idea that a foreign government had literally taken over the election, they're not protesting the government as illegitimate, there's no broad dramatic actions, just rhetoric, and there's certainly no loving violence; which if you really think the republic has been compromised by traitors to america, you'd think would happen. Instead they complain on twitter and say "sir" a lot. I don't blame them, violently opposing the american government is a real easy way to get killed dead and your cause demonized by a complacent and useless media. But we've seen mass protests and mobilization when the US pulls half the poo poo these people think happened, and yet... what's the resistance saying should be done? Wait for an investigation, and keep the government working as usual, hopefully all the bad guys will go to prison.
