This is actually a pretty damn good take. You could quibble with one or two items; but overall seems like the right answer. A lot of us don't believe - call in skepticism - that people huddle up and organize and conspire all that often. The best explanation is usually the one right in front of you. Demographics are demographics for a reason.GreenRiverGatorz said:
You're thinking in terms that are way too conspiratorial when the answer is much simpler.
Most folks who work for the big media outlets are cut from the same cloth - urban, highly educated, with upper middle class backgrounds. Believe it or not, their personal politics tend to actually favor globalization, not because they personally have anything to gain, but because they genuinely believe it's good policy.
And that's where so much of the disconnect comes from. We're now multiple generations in to a "media class" that has increasingly grown up in elite urban circles, and they've become more and more unfamiliar with people who live in rural areas who don't have that same shared experience, and who personally suffered from that shifting global economy. It's not nefarious and it's not a money grab, they just simply don't know who these people in "other America" are, anymore than they know someone in rural India. -
c'mon Race, it's a good take!RaceBannon said:Hondo's retarded twin

For my money it really is this demographic split that has caused polarization to exacerbate the way it has these last couple decades. As culture, media, tech, and finance all consolidate in the same handful of coastal cities, huge swaths of Americans feel ignored, disrespected, and disconnected. And that's why you start to see these dumbfuck takes of "all Trump supporters are racist" from some on the left. Because they literally don't know what these peoples' lives are like, so it's the only explanation that makes sense to them.creepycoug said:

That's why I'm all in on #yanggang. He's lived and worked on the ground in "both" Americas. He gets it, he gets the divide, and he understands how unhealthy it is for the country. -
It is a good take, and matches what I know personally. That was also the central poont of Bernie Goldberg's book 10-15 years ago.creepycoug said:

5-6 years ago, that JournoList thing was 'uncovered' as a means of narrative coordination. Now, I don't think they even need that. They coordinate through the Twatter hivemind. -
The NY Times, Wa Po, and the three networks reported the same stories on the same day for decades before the internet was swimming around in Al Gore's loins
You don't need to gather together in a room to coordinate the message -
Daddy can write his political tome in prison. That's not unprecedented and he just needs a working title.
Mein Kampf is taken, btw. -

Not the message. But coordinating the new world order takes at least a handful of people meeting on at least a couple of Zoom calls to iron out at least a few details. That's my point.RaceBannon said:The NY Times, Wa Po, and the three networks reported the same stories on the same day for decades before the internet was swimming around in Al Gore's loins

The NWO is simply governments around the world consolidating the considerable power we? give them to keep us safe from whatever boogeyman is in the newscreepycoug said:

There is a like minded approach to the "we know better than you" crowd. Bildenberg, the UN, G7 and the like are not sinister within themselves but it is where the discussions take place
There is a reason Trump is the turd in the punch bowl at those settings. Its not about money and power which he has enough of to be in the club. You have to agree with the club and that is where 2016 Trump got off script.

I can get behind that. It's been an issue since man began governing. Plato thought it made sense to let the smart people make the decisions. I guess it caught on.RaceBannon said:

No one cares about trump specifically
He was just the only dude who stood up to the absurd woke fucks -
Does anyone else get a weird vibe from HH with his “daddy” fixation?
It pops up in like 1/2 of that guys posts... -

If Trump University, Trump Steaks, and all other Trump business are any indication, Donald may have a tough time out there. Not exactly a business genius, focus is a problem.

He can put his face on cameras, tweet stuff, and do rallies. But that's about it. He can only do stuff directly about him.
No other organizational or managerial skills, at all.
If he charges for rallies, will you Tuggers pay? -
It's going to be entertaining watching you attempt to defend Biden for the next four years.Kingdome_Urinals said:
