    I think the news media gave so much damned coverage to and amplified the MAGA/GOP fight to discriminate against trans folks it seemed like that’s all anyone was talking about.

    I didn’t see nearly as much coverage on things that Dems were doing to help the American people. Like creating jobs and doing more than any other piece of legislation to address climate change with the Inflation Reduction Act. Getting the wealthy to pay what they owed in taxes by funding the IRS. Saving consumers billions with the Consumer Protection Bureau… And on

    Instead the so-called-left corporate news media talked about how outrageous the GOP shotbags are and spent forever talking about the misnamed “woke” stuff in a brilliant move to avoid talking about climate change and the bullshit corporate takeover of government and ever worse income inequality and the ways to improve lives of all US citizens and beyond
