Let's wrap a bunch of bibles in dust jackets that read "End Hate" and/or feature rainbow color schemes and host a 'Conservative Book Burning Bash for Liberal Tears!" flamethrowing event. When they're done it would be revealed that they burned a bunch of King James versions of the word of God. They'd get mad but probably wouldn't care but it'd be a huge LOL from our perspective.

Seriously though stealing and taking a flamethrower to a bunch of books is psycho poo poo and she should be put on a terrorist watch list. Not joking.

They would be stoked, we need to get rid of all of this "King" "James" who was very weak, many people are saying it, and replace it with the TRUE President Trump Bible featuring your favorite savior (JesusMe!) $199/copy or for $499 individually signed with a personalized message from President Trump*

Early on when Trump stole the election (with the help of Russia) you started hearing the term “fake news” which was Trump speak for “only listen to me, I’m the only source of news you need from now on!” and the right wing nut jobs came out swinging with a one/two punch, attacking anyone previously regarded as an expert and anyone with a college degree who was articulate and used proper spelling and grammar.

My favorite demand is that the company she is suing will just write a cool new show for her to star in.

Not sure how you get any of that from the lawsuit.

It's pretty clear that she feels entitled to be free of any consequences of her speech.

She's not regretting a drat thing she did. It's entitlement. It's Karening. If she felt regret, she'd apologize for being an insufferable bigot.

And appositely, he stole the term "fake news" which the social media world was using at the time in a sisyphean attempt to flag and eradicate the explosion of Russian-planted garbage news stories that were clogging up regular people's ability to find actual news on the Internet.

I kinda wonder if all the in-dick-ta-bull and ina-lien-a-bull and there enlies poo poo is like how scam emails will sometimes intentionally misspell stuff and be obviously janky on purpose. People who notice or care about the weird malapropisms weren't likely to listen to what they had to say anyway, so anyone who makes it past that screening process is an easy mark for the actual content.

Perhaps not that, and I wouldn't go as far as to say its intentional, but it makes it really easy for people to call the mistakes out and for them to counter "oh, I'm sorry my down-home folksy spelling offends you more than indoctrinating children?"

"Fake news" was more than that. There were massive disinformation campaigns that presented themselves as news websites. Or sites that were "parodies" like they were The Onion except they weren't funny and made no attempt to make themselves not look like a news source. People rightfully started pointing out that these things being passed around as news stories by conservatives were not true: they were "fake news". And then because the fascists always turn criticism around and go "No, you!" to try to muddy the waters, they started calling actual news sources "fake news".

I'm a little surprised they haven't started calling out pictures and stories that make them look bad as "AI". Maybe it'll take a few more months for that to catch on.

Yep.

They attacked the 1st Amendment while wrapping themselves up in the 2nd; it was an attack on America from within the government, culminating on Jan 6th.

And they're still attacking, trying to whitewash a violent insurrection as a peaceful walk in the park.

I was laid off recently and I've been trudging through local social media to see if there's any odd-jobs I can pick up, and I saw a Nextdoor thread about AI and the absolute misunderstanding and fear-mongering behind it is impressive. People accusing it of stealing jobs, taking over computers, lying to them, etc., just tons of fear and anger around it though nobody can seem to explain exactly what it is about AI that causes them pain (aside from the people who rightly pointed out that calling or chatting with companies has become incredibly painful thanks to phone trees and chat bots).

The US electorate is absolutely primed to accept AI as the next boogeyman and won't question at all when some conservative bigot blowhard claims "AI" is the reason they were caught in a Klan outfit waving a confederate flag and chanting racial slurs at the top of their lungs.

Nah, they used to accuse people who hated W Bush of having “Bush Derangement Syndrome,” and then Dems flipped it back on conservatives with, “Obama Derangement Syndrome.”

It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if there were people claiming “Clinton Derangement Syndrome” in the 90s, but I wasn’t aware of it until Bush II.
