Pretty much, it’s the very natural consequence of a deregulation and the an-cap philosophy. We’ve seen this before in america during the 1900s. It’s the whole reason Teddy and FDR ended up getting elected.
We can’t because we have corporate propaganda news outlets that will work tirelessly to frame this “new FDR” as a fascist communist racist woke elite conman.
Pick your outlet and that will determine the words chosen to disparage them.
Hell just look at the supposed “liberal media” treating Bernie Sanders when he looked to be taking the lead in the primaries, suddenly every story was “Bernie loves Castro! Bernie loves Cuba! Be afraid! He likes communist stuff! Boo! Ahhh! Oh no it’s Bernie!”
Don’t forget the low blow campaign tactic of the “Bernie Bros” - and how I cannot be a feminist if I don’t cast my vote for Clinton. I couldn’t believe how biased NPR was in their coverage and framing of that primary. It caused me to stop being a supporter.
I’m still proud to be considered a 21 year old russian man named Vladimer online!!! (I am not even close to any of those but my twitter replies insist i’m wrong about that actually)
MSNBC’s Chris Matthews literally said if Bernie was elected him and his rich buddies would be executed in Central Park.
Chris Matthews’ Wild Rant Connects a Bernie Sanders Win With Public Executions. The MSNBC host talked about socialist-led “executions in Central Park” while tying those fears to Bernie Sanders
In addition to this, the government is working to ban any news outlet that disagrees with them. They’re starting with “foreign” outlets like RT and TikTok, but they’ll soon move to anything that doesn’t toe the party line.
I can understand literal propaganda outlets, government run news from countries we know have their orgs run with specific orders to run whatever stories would be an obvious thing to want to curtail here. I used to check into RT and all I’d see are anti-american stories or even using Americans to tell an anti-american government story from someone like Abby Martin. I can’t imagine we’d be getting any news from say North Korean news outlets that isn’t specifically meant to manipulate foreign countries citizens.
Tiktoc isn’t really news, it’s more like YouTube. If anything I’d say assholes like Zuckerberg lobby the government to kill foreign competitors in our market which is a whole nother issue that also sucks :(

So we need another FDR. Can we do it without a preceding depression this time around?

You’re about to elect Trump again. I shouldn’t worry about there not being enough bad economic news.
