    Nah. Folks are big mad because it’s exactly what we all expected when bezos bought the post. It didn’t immediately slide headlong into the void of bullshit pandering, so we developed a sense of false hope. Now it’s gone, we know it, we’re annoyed, and we’re mad about getting took.

      Some people seem to think you should only get angry at things that are surprises. Like I get mad every time a Republican is a bigot even if I’m not surprised. Bigotry should make people mad whether or not it’s a surprise.

      Well he used his tool when it was good for him.

      WaPo and rest of these outlets are just that, mouth piece for the owner class.

      Yet we their trash is being endlessly reposted around socials. Why?

        You seem dense on purpose. But just in case I’d like to point out that you’re in the news section.

          The troll is pushing the usual current 3rd party vote bullshit. Either they are incalculably dense or they will be gone after the US election. Make of that what you will.
