Parker Molloy cleverly calls her take-down of the disgraceful coverage of Trump's McDonald's stunt, "'You Want Lies With That?'" News Media Struggle to Cover Trump's Potemkin McDonald's Photo Op."

@NeadReport Touché. I think companies allow this kind of thing because, on the whole, economic elites stand solidly behind Trump and Vance and want them in office. There are tax cuts to be considered, after all, and protections from government supervision and "interference."

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@Greengordon Yes, I agree. Good analysis.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@Blinxeto For sure.

@JonChevreau A clever hashtag. I like it!

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@mickymorse Yes, that's how I see it, too.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@billseitz We wouldn't have known any of that from many media reports, would we?

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@markmetz Sadly, that's not beyond the realm of possibility, is it, that debasement of language by the complicit media?

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@JBShakerman @NYTimes Yes, you're right.

[billseitz@toolsforthought.social]

@wdlindsy correct, I was just make the important bit visible without-a-click.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@billseitz Thanks for doing so.

@wdlindsy Indeed. Hitler and Goebbels had a lot of laughs cooking up their plans.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@shuttersparks I think that's a trademark of real evil, laughing at the death and destruction you're planning to visit on others.
