Without Fox News, there would be no Trump.

It's a classic long con.

You fill people w fear & along comes a con saying he'll protect them.
The fears Fox News incites are not random. It is a fear of a culture which is changing to empower people other than just white men.
The reason troll videos exist, the reason people like Milo & those Pepe dipshits are popular is bc they quell that fear. They ridicule it.
They make people who worried about losing status and power and popularity and clout feel better about themselves.
They are obsessed with power. Everything is an "own" or a "take-down." The men they hate most are "cucks," the women "cringeworthy."
This is not by accident.

This is a projection of their deepest fears about themselves:

That they are powerless & weak.
And here's the thing:

They are.

That's why they elected a con-man. Because they were desperate. Because they are losing.
And make no mistake, this is a fight. The stakes are high, the future is being threatened and the worst people in the world are in charge.
That is why it must come down to every single election, every assembly seat, every board, every city council, every congressman, every mayor
Every bullshit false equivalence article in the New York Times, every bullshit headline on Fox, every lie upon lie that Trump utters.
Every state, every county, every district, every single vote case in 2018 and 2020.

We will fight them everywhere.
Sorry for the long thread. I don't mean to blow up everyone's TL's.

I'm just sick of being told to empathize with racist disphits.

No.
I'm sick of being told "this is why Trump won."

Because I won't participate in the con.

Because the whole fucking thing is a con.
Trump is not a leader.
Fox is not news.
Immigrants aren't violent.
Bad cops do kill black kids.
Women can make their own fucking decisions.
And the society I WANT to live in does not give me an advantage for being a WHITE MAN.

I don't fucking want it.
And if the hacks at Fox News, Trump, and the rest of the Pepe dipshit army had any faith in themselves, they wouldn't want it either.
