Are we not acting like frogs in boiling water? First they demonized the press & said the news is all fake. Then they said the press is the enemy of the people. Now they just walk out on interviews. Only the most naïve among us don’t realize they have it in them to shut it down.

8 days until “nothing fundamentally changes.”

Frogs don't really act like the story goes with slowly heated water. It is a myth that they stay in the water. They jump out when it gets uncomfortable.

Yes indeed, some of us read history. And a few of us really old salts have lived some of it. Getting rid of the press is one of the main things I wannabe dictator has to accomplish.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Yes to all the above

I just wish you'd stop subtly framing things in terms of "only Republicans bad". You're smart enough to know that it's both parties AND that there is a certain "fake news" aspect to our media when 90 percent of it is owned by six corporations that want things to stay the same.

I’ve come to believe that the news is fake, but I guess 2021 will be the year of their reckoning.

I already created the picture! But no one gets me. I'm having a ball!
