Typical boomer, honestly, completely incapable of doing her job, but keeps getting cortoroid shots straight in her neck so she can take a job away from a non-corpse American

NPR, officially sponsored by the SuccDem foundation

I stopped listening to NPR when they had a 10 minute story about some lady battling her HOA to let her hang clothing outside

We were right in the middle of the Benghazi scandal, and they spent all that time on some dippy democrat who thought she was saving the world by dry hanging her clothes as she lives in her gated community and commutes 1 hour to her job at the corporate marketing capitalism machine

okay I'm no big fan of either major American political party but I've been dying to ask this of someone who uses the term "succdem":

what proportion of the American electorate do you see as your enemy

and does that figure fill you with despair

America is the enemy, pal

The whole shebang

I'm so glad NPR is talking to Tucker Chudderson; he's one of the good republicans, he only wants to kill illegals, and not gays also

Breakfast All Day posted:

It's because the mythical Conflicted Republican is the only person who could every be swayed by their reporting, which would make it meaningful and progressive, rather than the status quo apologia/reinforcement it is.

But ultimately it's because they're all petit boug ivy league grads who have never existed in the world outside of the political/media class so only have the clumsy lens of liberal critique which is doomed to credulity and constant surprise at every fractal feature of the world because there's no structural theory to build a better, predictive model (because then you'd have to talk about class, capitalism, ideology, etc.).

My favorite bald-faced example of the credulous naivety (not the ideological blindness) is still near the end of Serial season 1 Adnan having to yell at Sarah Koenig that she doesn't know him, because after working on the story for years she's completely oblivious to him being a compulsive liar. Even he's tired of her getting confused by every detail. And she still doesn't get it, and takes it to be him calling out something about her relationship to the story or some poo poo (because in the end for all of these NPR journos it's about ~~their journey~~).

"Geez lady, you know I'm full of poo poo, right?"

"Was this his way of saying id never inderstand his struggle?"

He 100% did it

Now, I don't think he got a fair trial, on account of his lawyer being a moron, the cops having a lot of circumstantial evidence, and the overt racism of the case

But, yeah, he for sure murdered that girl

I listened to 2 episodes of season 3 and didn't get poo poo out of it. It's basically a white lady being like, "Wow, did you guys know that the poor are getting hosed by the system??"

No poo poo, lady, welcome to America.
