If you would pay $4 for Hawkeye or $3 for Star-Lord you shouldn't have money, or hawks, or eyes. Or stars. Or lords.
Clearly the way you get this sort of thing to go viral is to make a bunch of purposeful howlers like $2 Happy and I fell for it.

Anyway: Vision Loki Dr. Strange Black Panther Scarlet Witch and the new Captain America.
Vision is an ultrapowered android AI with control of Stark tech; BP controls the most technologically advanced nation on earth; Dr. Strange literally controls time; SW controls reality, and why not have the new Cap on the team, he can fly and there's $1 left.

The guns are the point.
Just thinking of how the media would have covered Ferguson protests if some in the crowd had long guns.

Just wondering how today's "protesters" would have reacted.

Today's protest is about what people are allowed to threaten the government with guns and which are not.
If today's protest were about economic concerns during quarantine, they'd be protesting in favor of remedy—measures designed to make necessary shelter easier.

Instead, with guns, they're protesting in favor of harm—measures designed to make other people die for their own ease.

Reminded powerfully of Sartre‘s famous quote on Nazis.
Facists will get away with whatever they can. When they discover they can, they were serious. When they discover they can’t, they were kidding for now and will try again later.

A "both sides" framing is almost always deployed to help the worse, wrong, lying side. Almost never to provide balance.

Trump suggested household disinfectant to his extremely credulous, ignorant, and worshipful audience. A fathomlessly irresponsible thing.

The paper of record:
There are people who want to give Trump the benefit of the doubt no matter what he does or says, and the Times wants to capture that market.

Fortunately for them, this market needs only the scantest excuse.

Unfortunately for them, Trump just suggested injecting disinfectant.
It's not the stupidest thing he's said, or the most irresponsible, it's neither a peak or a valley; he'll say dumber more irresponsible things in the near future, and those who want to keep giving him the benefit of the doubt will keep doing so, and so the Times will keep it up.
