You wanna win the news game? Do the hard hitting headlines. Cuomo killing old people. NYPD unable to deal with surge in mental health calls and suicide threats due to defunding + lockdowns. Kerry colluding with Iran to undermine Trump.

Don't talk about Biden's dogs.

No one gives a single fuck about SNL. Stop making it a news headline.

Not only is SNL culturally irrelevant to the left, turning everything SNL does into a talking point of the right means you're still ceding culture to the left.

I love her attitude. We all need to be like Neera Tanden.

The problem with conservatives is that it's basically just a bunch of giant pussies who pretend to have virtues but are really just trying to suck up to liberals for head pats and give them easy W's all the time.

Oh and be sure to whine about how liberals do stuff conservatives can't and how the rules are different yadda yadda. Who cares.

Michael Crichton was a deeply cynical conservative who observed and identified how ideology, hubris, the pursuit of clout and virtue, and profit-seeking make for an ugly, polygamous marriage that defines the progressive left.

I don’t think he liked corporatist libertarians all that much either.

He was distrusting of the mainstream media, coining the concept of the “Gell-Mann effect” in which people can identify total bullshit on one page of the newspaper only to instantly take for granted the “facts” written on the next page about some subject they’re unfamiliar with.
