It is NOT the eye of the tiger, don't believe the lies!

Just heard that Greece and Turkey have been getting into arguments and war is now a possibility.  Great, more to keep track of.  Their conflicts go back at least as far as Russia and Ukraine, but they're both NATO members so we'd probably ignore them, favoring the non-NATO Ukraine over all.

□ [“'We Cannot Let Them Get Away with It – Enough Is Enough' President Trump Responds to Garbage Special Counsel Investigation"]

It's good to know that he's going to continue pissing off our rulers but really, sh*t or get off the pot.  Six years of this, we don't need another stupid generic legal fight.  We really are at the point where it needs to be something more serious.  My vote would go for a strike but simply taking the fight to the streets has its advantages.

Trump is fine as a symbol but basically every public statement he makes confirms that he's not really going to be much help overall.  I'd certainly appreciate him proving me wrong but time goes by and he just doesn't.  They had the Russiagate nonsense, two impeachments, January 6 and now another "special council" to take him down, at some point just fight back or else go on strike.  Dealing with these creatures is only helping them.

Do TV networks have a way to actually count how many viewers each show has?  For decades, they just uses the Nielsen ratings, several thousand households whose tv sets were bugged and counting everything, and that was it.  I can't imagine that's still in place but I'm not sure what they'd replace it with.

Even if they bug everyone's house, they don't get to count how many people watch which show on their phones or whatever other formats there are nowadays.  That's just idiotic, taking a few thousand people who were willing to go along as the sample audience and using that as the basis for everything.  You're ignoring everybody who doesn't watch your shows and have no way of counting anybody who actually does, much less why.

There's a saying - I heard it from Alan Moore in Cerebus #219 - about how an individual person is impossible to predict, there's just too many possibilities to comprehend.  However a thousand people are much easier, they're all going to follow straightforward plans in understandable ways.  A million people are even easier to comprehend and predict.

I don't remember the actual quote but that was the point.  I don't know if it's really true but it's disturbingly believable.  Moreover, it's definitely descriptive of leftism, which deliberately ignores the individual as much as possible at all costs.  This is definitely how the media has operated for decades.  The statement about individuals may not be literally true but it's close enough for media and government.

So how is it possible to run a tv network on this?  I would think the only way is to flat-out ignore anybody else and just promote whatever you/your network's views are 24/7.  Which is fine and that's the most obvious way to go, but that doesn't help advertisers or your parent company.  There's also the potential audience who isn't remotely interested, they can get their leftist news elsewhere.  You're only getting *any* money from them if they pay a regular cable bill, which is another element that I have no idea if it's still used.  It's thankfully been a long time since I've had to deal with cable bills.

Why is MSNBC even bothering with this?  Just announce their network as "leftist propaganda" and they'd probably get more viewers.  They'd certainly be more honest about their product.  It's not like their employees would complain about that, at least if they have any clue what they're doing.  It would be nice to think this is just the on-air personalities having mindless emotional reactions to the disasters we're living through and they support but they could still just shrug and go on with their lives, making the rest of us miserable.

Same thing as with Trump, stop being a f*cking tease.  If you have anything worth using, put it out now.  Right now.  You're rich and famous, you can promote it as much as you want, but you'd be saying 'It's right here!  Right here!  You can't miss it!  Just look right here and you'll see what we claim is so important!  Right here!'

The fact that they aren't doing that tells us that they don't really have anything important.  He could read the documents he claims to have right there on the tv show he's saying this, but that would be too much like providing useful information he claims to have.  He wouldn't do that.

It's what the leftists have been doing all these years.  Remember that tv show doing a ton of promotion for having Trump's tax returns, major promotion, they couldn't stop talking about it.  Then they finally got to the show where they'd release it and spent the whole show talking about how big of a deal this was.  When they finally got around to reading the documents, it was just a page or two from some generic tax return that didn't actually say anything relevant to anybody, but they sure got promotion for the false claims.

If you have anything important and you want people to actually see it, this isn't the way to go.  If I had proof of the Biden family's depravity, I'd just post it right here and everywhere else I could get to.  People would see it, they'd make copies of it, they'd pass those copies around, they'd be talking about what they saw.  And I'm a nobody, it probably wouldn't be hard to shut me up but the value of what I was putting out would be noticeable in and of itself.  This famous right-wing personality doesn't have the guts to actually do this.

Fine, it's something but not much.  Too much censored or at least shaded so it's unreadable.  Just post the actual document, put it all out.  It'll suck to be those involved but they've already had to deal with Hunter.  It's basically an example where making the problem worse by including those who suffered will help find a solution.  Otherwise you're just keeping the problem going.

To make up an example, what if Hunter is texting Trump about this?  Would you say you don't want Trump's name released to the public?  I'd say the same thing, just release the actual information and the chips fall where they may.  At this point, I'd say that even if the info was classified.  Just push it all out.
