A lot of people don't understand that what is radicalizing your parents is not Fox or hosed up Facebook posts, it's the local evening news. There's not a lot of scare posts about it because internet leftists don't watch their local news and it isn't often recorded or screen grabbed. But holy poo poo it's just an endless stream of Boomer poison about how crime is up you're going to be killed in your home minorities are getting uppity. Literally the most reactionary media we have is basic network news and no one is paying attention to it.

Boomers even MSNBC boomers are conditioned to believe the local news is some impartial reportage. But it's not it's absolutely insane and conservative.

I'm sort of lucky in that I've got a couple alternatives to a Sinclair-owned network in my area but outside of freak events like the condo collapse, I really only pay it much mind during hurricane season. Even then there's plenty of room to make the argument that seasonal advertising piggybacks on the quad-hourly Storm Team Exclusive Hyper Elite MEGADAR Hurricane Tracking System updates to drive overconsumption through panic buying.

In my experience this is true. I had a boomer at work ask me if it was really hard to get around in Minneapolis because of the Winston Smith murder protests. It's not, if something is going on its really easy to just drive around. Or all the people in the local news comments upset about George Floyd Square blocking traffic who would never willingly go anywhere close to there. If you live in the area you know its super easy to just drive down a block or two and go around.

local tv station has been fighting a war against the city because a formerly superwide 2 lane street with 2 parking lanes has been rebuilt into a narrower 3 lane street and people are getting ticketed for parking on it. this whole thing was planned 3 years ago and has been done for 3 months, the city is just now issuing tickets after giving warnings I go into work with the local news on the break room tv and they have been harping non stop about this one street. I seriously wonder if an exec is one of the idiots ticketed edit: quote:Residents said they’ve always parked in front of their homes, but now their only option is to park behind their homes in an alleyway with poor conditions like potholes, crime as well as poor lighting. these are people bitching because they have to park in the alley behind their house instead of on the street in front of it Peanut President has issued a correction as of 17:32 on Jul 22, 2021 |

Someone please help me figure out what is going on with Community Activist Andrew Holmes in Chicago. He's always on the news, but I'm not sure what he does, besides get involved in car crashes? These are all separate incidents. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9gM9vE1lY4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxa_TdL2QWA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoTSyG-ZvgY And give out Easter baskets? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjdYggFPSxQ
