People are monsters. Quite frankly I don’t know how ANY streamer has the guts to show their face online, regardless of what they look like. There’s no way in hell I could ever do that.

There’s so many valid things to be bullying this asshat over why’d they go with the superficial one?

This has to be a PR stunt. He looks totally fine, and surely realizes it. Plus, the whole bit about “[hiding his] identity, even if public, at McDonalds, or any place I need to go” is just over-the-top.

You’ve moved the goalposts. OP was talking about advocating. You’re talking about doing.

Exactly that. The Dems don’t have to do anything now except undo what Trump did to look like conquering heroes. You want police reform? Sorry, best I can do is Juneteenth.

That’s not true, he loves, umm, Steve Pieczenick and... this one weird Italian guy who used to be a house DJ and invented a religion based on The Matrix.

Do CNN & MSNBC air blatant lies & bullshit? Not as standard programming, which is the MO at Fox

In some ways MSNBC and CNN are worse. Fox viewers are the extreme weirdos that have always been with us. Fox has radicalized them somewhat, but their viewers were always a weird racist sexist authoritarian death cult. Fox viewers know they’re signing up for Right propaganda, and they’re glad it’s that way.

All I know about Stelter is that Alex Jones hates him

Well, if one’s not better than the other, than they’re equal.

Is Rachel Maddow a better human being than Sean Hannity? Sure. It literally doesn’t matter because the “good” ones still take their orders about what to cover and how to cover it from their bosses, and they only care about money and ratings.

“without them needing to advocate for reform or meaningful systemic change”

Well, if one’s not better than the other, than they’re equal. Are they equal? In some important respects, sure, in some other also very more important respects, I’d argue no. Is there no baby of something that hews close enough to truth in the bathwater they work in?

I’d be really surprised if they plan more than a year or two into the future.

That’s rich. CNN and MSNBC are both corporate profit motivated news entertainment channels, just like Fox. They all made loads of money airing Donald Trump rallies, giving him a huge voice and presence that a moron like him shouldn’t have had, basically handing him the election in 2016, and then crying about it later.

The US Congress has spent decades ceding their powers to the Executive in the name of easy reelectability, there’s no possible way they’re gonna stop now.

Trump proved a major financial and cultural boon to Liberalism by giving them something to mock, campaign against, and feel superior towards without them needing to advocate for reform or meaningful systemic change. The ore-Trump status quo looks so good in comparison that they can all do grave news reports about…

All I know about Stelter is that Alex Jones hates him, frequently going into spittle-flecked rants about what a “demonically possessed child molester” Stelter allegedly resembles. My working theory is that Stelter looks like Jones minus decades of alcoholism, performative rage, and lost lawsuits, plus an actually…

It is curious where the FOX News execs thinks the company might be in ~15-20 yrs. Any advertiser or agency believing that a meaningful aggregate of people under 60 yrs old TODAY watches that network is delusional.

Brian Stelter makes so much hay by acting like Fox News is a legitimate news source every Sunday morning, guy annoys the shit out of me.
