Ikr!? Every single time someone mentions a more measured, comprehensive response, it devolves into “he’s not my guy” (why is it always men too?:-P). Bill Maher is nowhere close to Jon Stewart or John Oliver, but if he happens to say something interesting… I’ll listen. I am not a tribal person and even if my heroes said something wrong I would disagree, and yes, bc apparently I very much desire the downvotes, I will add that even if Trump himself said something correct, I would agree with him. My partnership is with truth, not who said it.
We KNOW that our media is predatory, using reactionary tactics to feed engagement I.e. clickbait. This is how you counteract that - by ignoring rather than feeding forward their hype, giving credit where it is due and yes blame too when warranted.
Even a broken clock….
If the clock doesn’t have any hands, it’s never right.
Then it’s not a stopped clock I’d suppose.
If the hands fall off the motor can still turn until the energy source runs out.
If your aunt had balls….
Then she would not be a stopped clock
