I don’t disagree with trying to absorb other things that wasn’t what was intended sorry if it came off that way.

I think I a piece piece of evidence is that the right wing news orgs are still talking about it after they were told to stop. Their own audiences turned against them enough that they have to keep talking about it. I forget who said it but one said that they trust the people in the white house to take care of it and his own comments dragged him for it.

There are also some people I know personally that have genuinely been shook by this.

This distraction rhetoric is fucking stupid. They are doing a lot of bad things at the same time so you cant focus on all of it at once. they don’t care what you’re focusing on just that not everyone is focused on the same things so a group is harder to form. It’s why we (the left) need to keep hitting on the list. It’s clearly a weak point and there is blood in the water so we need to keep pushing. There are some MAGA that are waking up because of this.

Really it should be that no government is relying on a corporation (or at least a non local corporation if they have to use one) for anything at all related to its functions.
