Technically that just involved redefining the terms.

Like how America outlawed slavery but gave themselves a loophole with criminals

The 13th Amendment clearly says slavery is banned, except

Yeah but if you ask most people if prisoner labor is slavery they will say of course not.

Propaganda can do much more than legal definitions

I think my main failing is that when people ask "why would a conservative like this show," I don't realize it's a rhetorical question and no one is actually interested in hearing an answer.

I went back to look because I thought i missed a tangent but you are the guy who got mad at cable news. I wouldn’t even have known you where conservative going by that

I think it’s important to remember conservative is a bit of a broad term especially in America. Realistically CNN and MSNBC are pretty conservative but just not in the way say fox is

I mean it’s more likely JMS is just like that from what I remember from his time as a comics writer

Great Man just says that the individual in the figurative sense not the literal sense.

Like Great man theory does not need a single person to do everything because history doesn’t work like that. Like even great man proponents are more than willing to say Ghengis Khan needed his many talented generals or Napoleon needed his staff. Even the great men wer neeefed to put it together

Like the opposite to great man theory is that anyone could have accomplished what was accomplished and the ones that did did so because they were born at the right time and place

I mean the number of real world governments that have avoided authoritarianism is pretty low.

It’s just something people prefer not to think about
