commenting on the New York fucking Times rehashing lies about the most demonstrably competent President we have had since LBJ being an addled, senile old man, while it covers up and enables the addled, senile old man who is also an idiot to start with and a criminal who the New York fucking Times did so much to put there, starting well before 2016 when they sandbagged probably the most qualified candidate to have ever gotten a major party nomination to put him there.
Along with those myths about the Supreme Court, the Constitution and other dearly cherished myths of American life, the myth of the "free press" being a bulwark of American democracy is a pile of shit with a few quarters thrown into it. You have to mine loads of shit to find those things that have really been valuable, only shit will eventually turn to compost which has a good purpose, most of journalism has no purpose except to bury democracy on behalf of oligarchs such as who own outfits like the big papers like the WaPo and the NYfT. I wish someone would do an in-depth investigation of the financial and personal motives of the owners of the NYfT to expose their motives in doing so much to sink democracy while posing as the defenders of democracy. I know why they strike the pose, to gull the affluent idiot-moderates and liberals who can afford the goddamned thing. What I want exposed is the real motives behind why they an their brothel of media whores do what they do. It's far more transparent in the case of the owner of the WaPo and the LA Times but the Ochs-Sulzbergers and those who cling on them is not as obvious or transparent. I always had the feeling that the previous publisher - I forget, was it "pinch" or "punch" or maybe "putsch" - had felt some social slight by Bill Clinton that caused the Times three decades and counting war against him and Hillary Clinton, much as I always figured Christopher Hitchens resented Bill Clinton from Arkansas being more successful with girls at Oxford than tubby, oily little Hitch was.
But I think to really continue as they have, sandbagging Joe Biden, there has to be money at the bottom of it. Could it be as simple as they wanted the Trump millionaire-billionaire tax bonanza to continue? I wouldn't be surprised if it were that simple.
I'm going to remember everyone, from the alleged left to the moderates to the right who had a hand in handing the country over to Trump and Republican fascists, from the owners of the media brothels to the hired talent right on down to the alleged comedians who made "Old Joe Biden" jokes. The consequences for us and the world of what they did is as serious as those who aided the rise of Hitler and other of the kind of worst criminals who the modern era has given rise to. I've told before how, when Ronald Reagan died I gave scandal to many a lefty blogger by telling the terrible truth about him and the many thousands he killed only to have them give me the "speak only good of the dead." My answer was that the forgiveness they needed wasn't mine to give, that I'd consider it after those tens and hundreds of thousands or more before me in line uniformly gave him theirs. I will never overlook what they've done to us. The consequences for other People and living beings is too great for that. May they spend a long, long period in hell for what they've done.
