It remained unclear why the president believed negative news coverage, which all of his predecessors have faced and is protected by the Constitution, would be against the law.

What kind of dumb logic is that? Maybe you should be arrested for suggesting your president is not right.

It's obviously not the same. Everyone loves Trump and nobody likes the Democrats. Everybody knows that the elections that gave Obama and Biden's presidencies were rigged by the wicked woke antifa ecologists LGBTQ terrorists and therefore illegitimate. They were the real dictators coming for your guns,, straws, 'merry Christmas', and gendered bathrooms.

It's that simple.

Unfortunately, Poe's law is more applicable than ever. That text is definitely something a MAGA cultist might write.

What is poe law?

I'm not surprised they are trying to do all of this stuff, or that they are so bad at it, I am a little surprised at the lack of pushback on anything this time around. The first time they tried all of this stuff and there was institutional pushback. Those people have apparently all been purged from the government already. Everybody left is totally on board for the Nazi train. Until they get kicked off anyway.

Poe's law states "Without a clear indicator of the author's intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views."

Ah yes I have learned that the backslash s tag has to be added to anything, not even because the readers are dumb as much as some of the other commenters are stupid and say things that stupid.

Influence agents and Bots and chatbots are also a big factor in that. Our online discourse is very dumbed down on subjects where big money is in play.

I don't have a president, although I am not overly fond of my national leaders either.
