“ Donald Trump lashed out Tuesday at a pair of cable networks not named Fox News for their decision not to air all of his Iowa caucuses victory speech as it happened, suggesting that what they did was so heinous that they should “have their licenses, or whatever they have, taken away.”
Dictators gonna dictate.
This is exactly our problem.
Yes yes Trump is absolutely an issue, but it’s propaganda outlets that are ruining the country. I have no solution to that problem. It’s important to have a free press, but they are 100% taking advantage of that.
They stupidly set the stage for people like Trump, but they think they’re just doing R vs D shit so they can get their asshole of choice into power. Well the people tend to get more crazy than anyone would prefer so you open the door for them and you have no control over who enters.
We’ve implemented the principle of free speech in a way that denies that fact that vast swathes of people are idiots who will believe anything, and that failure has been weaponized against us.
Nobody should have to right to rile up credulous morons with ridiculous lies.
