    We’ll for once, he’s not wrong. If Watergate would happen today, it barely would register on the news with all the other shit going on that they cause all day every day

    Fuck Vance with a couch

      Fox News and AM Radio talk shows can directly tie their existence to the republicans wanting to control media after watergate.

      The goal was to make it so that in the future we would treat watergate like a 12-hour story and unshackle the executive to fulfill their ghoulish dreams.

      It’s upsetting looking around at everything that sucks ass and realize it’s not some terrible mistake. Every part of this system from our predatory health insurance, weak to non existent unions, inability to hold reasonable discussions are all designed. Designed by the worst fucking people who spent decades carefully executing them so that a handful of people could be rich and powerful oligarchs.

      And it worked. It’s not some danger on the horizon, it’s not some horrible outcome we narrowly avoided, it’s just life, day after soul crushing day.
