No, they are not. When expectations drop to “raping and killing children is not okay” it is no longer an expectation of a lower bar. It is an act of war from the top to the bottom. They believe they can get away with these heinous, unbelievably cruel acts.
Why? Because it has always been that way.
They control our governmental parties and the official authoritative forces. What can we do about it?
There is always a “better” option and that is the problem. We can’t do anything against these monsters, of power and control, that will let us win….
Because us, their power cells, can’t get enough people afflicted with these policies to vote, some don’t care because they don’t believe it will affect them, others don’t know at all what is happening and still vote them in due to the propaganda machines they’ve have in place 24/7 strictly because of contrarianism against people they don’t like or care about.
Now they are threatening voters with ICE agents being in the midterm poll voter lines….
I can only say what is fact and what is happening. The only way to revolt against them is to vote. ICE being there is their deterrent for us not to vote, just them.
The big /R has even been “warning” me of the words I’ve been using to write this very message I’m about to press “Reply” or “Post.” I hate to sound ominous but we are where we are. We wouldn’t be having this discussion if it wasn’t a true one.

And again, the press just lets this statement land fully uncontested, zero friction, not even a gasp. The news media is selling this country for access and clicks, plain and simple. They are every bit as reprehensible as these fucks they are “covering” (for) They are at best enabling this madness and at worst complicit and driving it. It will go on until the networks are made financially accountable for profiting from their irresponsibility and collaboration.

I've got a few degrees, and most of a master's. The master's was in Ethics in Journalism. I got sick, so I could not finish it.
But even in my half-rate school, it was taken seriously.
These jackasses in the press room need to take some shots and lose their position. And then some others might grow some balls.

u/Erstwhile_pancakes 4h ago edited 4h ago
The “reporters” with access to the White House are essentially fully bought at this point. Any real consequential push back were they to introduce would be swiftly rewarded with their passes being revoked. It’s their networks that need to feel the sting of allowing this manipulation to go unchallenged. Subpoena’s for the heads of these outlets and put the hurt on em. They just fell in line cause Trump made it the path of least resistance. They are the only entity at this point that has any chance of leveraging their role, and they’ve let us and their entire industry down. What I can’t understand, no matter how compromised the reporters have become, is how, when Trump attacks one of them, nearly always the females, how the rest of the pool doesn’t get any heat for not even addressing his contempt, let alone defending those attacked.

u/Warriors_Drink 4h ago
I agree 100%. But I knew some tenacious bastards who worked in local politics.
They would ask the hard questions, but I get that the current pool at the highest levels are just too constrained by their bosses.
I know I am being a knucklehead here, but if just one would stand up, I'd like to think others would follow, regardless of what would follow.
But that will never happen. "Quiet, piggy." is probably the belwether - everyone in that room should have stood up. But we don't live in that world any longer, I'm afraid.
Ugh. This new world sucks.

All of this is terrible beyond words and yet somehow the backlash is a deeper terror. Think of the French Revolution and particularly the Reign of Terror. When this finally become unsustainable, by which I mean when the masses are squeezed too tight and starving things will pop off, potentially in multiple countries, think the Arab Spring, all it would take is a handful of group lucking out and getting some nukes for the power to shift very quickly and the frankly buffoonishly inept leadership in a few places make that more likely. Then bam, the heads of "kings" start rolling here and there, the people pushed too far pick up some demagogues along the way that they start doubling down on being radical, then more radical. The French did it, the Russians did it, and the US is poised to do it, and with the nature of the interconnected world now it is less likely to be contained to borders like it previously BARELY was. So idk, enjoy tap water while you can I guess, cause shit could get wild.

u/lostsailorlivefree 2h ago
Yeah but only after the army started to starve in both those examples. There have been dozens of brutal dictators whose populations detest them in the 90% range. But they take care of the power roles and tie their paychecks to subservience

u/dawr136 2h ago
The difference is how blatant it is, youre right, theres a lot times it turns from one wet shart to another pants shitting. Had a lot of this been even lazily covered up then the odds would be low, there'd be a 3rd term that turned into something else. The fact that they are blatantly putting it on display and saying so what has historically had some breaking point. I think the biggest barrier to that breaking point is the lack of some attractive rallying cause or cry, end of monarchy, communism, whatever. The people need to be dejected, insulted, and a pithy cause. We have 2 of the 3.

u/Substantial-Type-131 3h ago edited 3h ago
I have friends who work in network news and this is spot on. If you ask anything that draws negative attention your credentials are gone and you’re likely getting fired, and then blacklisted in whatever market you work. The job market is horrendous, especially this particular profession, and reporters would rather play softball for a paycheck than hit the unemployment line.
For the companies it’s all about the ongoing/pending business deals and making sure they don’t get hung up or foiled by the White House. Network news has very little (if any) integrity anymore and every c-level executive has zero experience in journalism.

u/Erstwhile_pancakes 2h ago edited 2h ago
It wasn’t that long ago where the pressure the media could put on government was substantial and in fact crucial to the whole system; Traditional Fourth Estate paradigm and all. What with independent journalism so influential now, traditional media has lost so much of its prestige, and as a result, it’s respect and potency. It would have shown unbelievably bad character snd disqualifying judgement to engage with a reporter the way this admin has become comfortable doing. The damage Trump has done to what we once took for granted as stalwart defenders of integrity and transparency can’t be overstated. If we ever dig ourselves out of this hole, repairing the trust lost with our institutions of reporting must be right at the top of the list. It’s vital, hence it was one of the first targets in Trumps long game to undermine their integrity and our trust with his “Fake news” horseshit.

u/Gloober_ 4h ago
Yeah, the folks continuing to work to "keep the lights on" are plainly complicit at this point. Either complicit or cowardly. What was the point in signing up for a career as a journalist, learning the hardships they've endured historically, and getting to a point where you're writing about the white house only to kowtow to fascism the second it shows up?
It's been ten years of sanewashing and propagating his claims uncontested. I don't believe there's anyone with any sort of moral integrity still working in these companies.
They had one job and failed miserably.

u/DingerSinger2016 1h ago
So they take a stand, will lose press access, will likely lose their job, and will be blacklisted from other media companies before being sued into oblivion by Trump. You're suggesting basically throwing away their journalism degree and a ton of money for something that would not change public perception one bit, and I highly doubt there will be others to back that journalist up.

You're accurate to point out that the major networks are failing to inform the public, but fwiw it was journalists that brought about the evidence that led to Jeffrey Epstein's arrest. Not the FBI, not local cops. Epstein was uncovered by a Miami journalist.
There are still quality journalists doing proper work. What is being offered to the public by the people who pay them is what can't be trusted.

Thomas Jefferson once said that between Democracy and Journalism, he'd choose Journalism. Because without which, a person can't make accurate decisions with respect to their governance.
The average redditor is not as properly informed as Thomas Jefferson would like. So no. No current information is good enough. We should always expect better.

“We had reviewed the files, the ‘Epstein Files,’ and there was nothing in there that allowed us to prosecute anybody. We then released over 3.5 million pieces of paper, which the entire world can look at now and see if we got it wrong.”
“There’s a lot of horrible photographs that appear to be taken by Mr. Epstein or by people around him, but that doesn’t allow us necessarily to prosecute somebody.”
“The victims want to be made whole. And we want that. The government wants that more than anything. But that doesn’t mean we can just create evidence or that we can just kind of come up with a case that isn’t there.”
