  • Because Trump is firehosing. There’s too much bullshit and fascism, and it would consume any media outlet that reports on it, making the news media appear to be biased.

    Look at the complaints from the debate, “Oh wahh, they fact-checked me but didn’t fact-check Harris!” and now CBS is saying they won’t fact-check the VP debate. They keep doing it because it works.

    Trump is floundering. His poll numbers aren’t looking great, and his VP keeps fucking up campaign events, people are leaving his rallys on camera behind him, so Trump is just going to shout whatever bombastic bullshit comes to mind in the hopes that it will drown out the other stories. And it fucking works.









  • I think you should reframe the thinking. All corporations are profit driven, and exploiting a devoted fanbase is very profitable. Innovation, customer service, commitment to quality, these are things that cam build loyalty, but capitalism demands growth. If you run out of ideas or saturate the market, the only way to grow profits is to cut costs. Customer service and commitment to quality might be the last things to go, but they will go eventually.
