It is easy to put right wing grift media consumers in a box. The outlets - OAN, Fox, Drudge, Breitbart, Newsmax. The pseudointellectual talking heads - Don Bongino, Ben Shapiro, Tucker Carlson, Dave Rubin, Trump & his entourage of sycophants.
They all align very well.
It is not so easy to put those who disagree with the above in a box. I think there should be no corporate tax rate and as open borders as possible. Where do you think that puts me? Reason magazine, Vox, The Atlantic, maybe.
- m0zg 5y agoHere's a litmus test for you: into which "boxes" would you put someone like Glenn Greenwald or Matt Taibbi? Of the outlets and people you mentioned I do listen to Carlson and Rubin from time to time - they are saying things I view as reasonable. I agree with nearly everything Greenwald and Taibbi have to say, even though they're liberals and I'm not. We're more alike than dissimilar. We have common enemy - the Uniparty. Except the Uniparty has somehow managed to brainwash the liberal intelligentsia into believing that it gives a slightest shit about them and that abundant gibs would issue if liberals just sustain its rotting carcass for another decade. Protip: you and I both aren't members of the club.
