  • You're half-right.

    It's real, researched, well-produced journalism which is definitely a relic of the past at this point.

    I don't think that's what you were saying, though. Since your opinion hinges on what "people have been calling" it, I think you probably don't watch it and believe that since it's an old show and format, it must be inferior to.. sound bites, inflammatory remarks, click/rage-bait, "X slammed Y," etc.

    And that's sad.

  • Hahahaha, you went and one-upped your own stupid comment. Yes, clearly any rational person sees vandalizing swasticars to be just as evil as destroying essential infrastructure for human survival or terrorizing innocent people with racial hatred that has historically let to their murders.

    You're a fucking idiot cosplaying as an iNTelLecTuAl.

    You're also blocked because you're a waste of everyone's time.

  • The people downvoting you don't want to be burdened with the understanding that their yelling at clouds in online forums isn't just worthless, it's the best possible response a fascist coup could hope for.

    People get to feel like their shock and anger are being heard and their likes and upvotes comfort them that they're not alone. Then they go to sleep that night telling themselves that with a post that got that much traction, surely someone out there is going to go out and change something. But they're not, because they're making their own posts and comments, believing that they're also doing their part.

    The Civil War, The Women's Suffrage Movement, Civil Rights - none of these things would have started much less succeeded if social media had existed then. People would still be posting today about how it's so reprehensible that white people can own another human, get their upvotes, and wait for someone else to do something about it.

  • Big, tough words from another armchair revolutionist. It's easy to tell other people to put themselves and their families in harm's way when your "contribution" to the fight amounts to screaming at clouds. You call other people fools when you've thoroughly fooled yourself into believing that all your anger and hate in internet forums is comparable to real sacrifice.

    A still from an ad for a new show, Tracker, on CBS - Anything jump out at you?

    I'm not saying the show was made by Nazis but it sure looks like a graphic artist is
