It's not the "lead" in the reporting though, media is as complicit in the attention-span blackout we're all experiencing. There are not-bad people in this very post who think this is entirely misinformation because media isn't leading their charge with this context.

Every headline and every major political story is focusing on what Trump is saying and doing, not the historical context of what our national relationships have been like and what Trump's history is.

I know we hate this, but our population is eroded. We have like, fucking microplastics in everyone's brains that are making people not think with words anymore. Everyone is just scrolling and working and slowly boiling to death as the pan heats up. If mainstream news sources actually did their job and showed us what was happening with intentionality and a focus on trying to FORCE people to pay attention, we wouldn't have gotten anywhere close to this mess.

But the media is complicit. They profit from chaos and they LOOOOOVE donny, he is their cash-cow and they will mourn when he finally passes away, or bursts into a cloud of bats or however people like him die.

Hey now, the SCROTUS said the president shouldn't be held responsible for crimes he commits during his presidency! You should totally forget and ignore those non-crimes he committed 2016-2020!

I remember he did this. Couldn't tell you for certain if this was why he was impeached in part because there's so much shit as you say, but mostly because apparently impeachement means absolutely nothing.

This is precisely why posting about every little thing Trump does is a problem

laws are just excuses for the men with guns. there's plenty of social cohesion and harmony you can have without men with guns, but if you want laws to be actual things, you need to keep up on the men with guns thing. the democratic party will never deploy them against other elites. liberalism, a law based form of social cohesion, will not save you when someone it will not target decides to not obey the laws that were designed to benefit it.

Liberalism will not save you. try something else.

It’s a fairly regular occurrence if you sort by top day or week. However, it’s definitely at the upper limit of votes.

they didn't consider helping ukraine at all when zelensky got to the white house, the die was cast against ukraine on the evening on november 5th when the election results were tabulated. it was done. trump was always going to abandon ukraine to russia, there was nothing zelensky could have said, or done, to change this. they set the whole public plan in motion, first by trump mentioning rare earth minerals, then having the us emissaries hand zelensky a blank check memo at the munich security conference they knew he wouldn't sign without security gurantees they never were going to make, then trump magically reconsidered, and seemingly overnight the deal was back on, to be signed at the white house, where they ambushed zelensky in front of kremlin press, europe, and the whole rest of the world

I’m very concerned about how many people mistake Trump’s attempts at appeasement as “peace”. People are actually buying that Zelensky “doesn’t want peace”. What can be done to change this narrative to the people who don’t get it?

as though that isn't what the Western world should be doing by default.

Vaguely gestures at what the West has been doing since WWII. The only thing Trump is doing differently here is that the people he's bullying are white.

He should be, but there is a zero percent chance of the republicans holding him accountable for anything at this point.
