@wdlindsy I know. So why play dumb?

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@markmetz Yes.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@CompassionNow A good description.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@Tharpa A certain story about a boy crying wolf does come to mind when it's over and over and over again.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@SueDiOh I don't read him as playing dumb. I read him to be calling out the disparity between how corporate media have treated Biden and Trump all along.

@wdlindsy @SueDiOh

Trump has always been treated differently from anyone, that's really the point. The media has always had special treatment for him, and why is a very interesting question.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@darwinwoodka @SueDiOh Excellent points. I, too, have long wondered why he gets special treatment. Part of the answer, obviously, is that he's white, monied, and has influential connections.

[suedioh@mastodon.social]

@wdlindsy @darwinwoodka Money. That's why. Because rich is not the same as smart. And he's not even rich. So how dumb are they?

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@SueDiOh @darwinwoodka Yep.
