they always have, after the 1st 2 weeks, they reverse course and started censoring his news.

So we need copy cat Luigi's?

[-] LilB0kChoy@lemm.ee 46 points 1 week ago

Just say copies. Why do you have to drag cats into this?

[-] GrundlButter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 35 points 1 week ago

you're free to do whatever you think that is, but it is uncouth to encourage others

[-] ChristmasApe@discuss.online 83 points 1 week ago

I don’t think they’re getting the message. Maybe it needs to be re-sent?

Big corporations can eat a barge of leper dicks.

[-] BossDj@lemm.ee 14 points 1 week ago

With RFK at the helm, they won't need to import the leper dicks. They'll be home grown soon enough

I don't think there's any kind of conspiracy to control the narrative. There are just various corporate media sources each with their own bias.

Washington Post is owned by a billionaire, so it's naturally going to run pro-billionaire, anti-billionaire-killer articles.

Reddit is desperate to avoid controversial things as it tries to survive going public. It wants to be the place people go for cute pictures of cats, funny memes, celeb interviews, etc. If someone like Elon Musk threatens to put them in the MAGA hate spotlight, they'll do whatever they can to avoid that. They rightly think they don't need to care about users anymore. People who stuck around after they effectively killed the API and after all the mods went on strike will stick around for anything. They have to care about advertisers now, and advertisers want to advertise next to safe things.

The NY Times is just a very old, very small-c conservative newspaper. They don't want to disrupt the status quo. The higher-ups at the NY Times are likely to show up at the same dinner party as Brian Thompson, so he's the one they sympathize with.

As for TMZ, all they care about is clickbait. If a CEO freaked out and gunned down a random person on the street, they'd just as happily make some tawdry movie about that too.

If this were some kind of concerted effort to control the narrative, they wouldn't publish info that went against that narrative. But, when there were hints that the cops might have screwed up the evidence gathering procedures at the crime scene, almost every major news outlet jumped on that story too.

Thank you. Occams razor. It's no surprise that rich assholes would be aligned on this by pure circumstance.

And from Reddit to the New York times and TMZ, it's absolute bullshit, and nobody is fooled.

I continue to be unconvinced they even got the right fuckin guy.

[-] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

There's no shot they got the right dude

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago

The magazines at the grocery store checkout vary between “”how could this happen?!” and “He’s a cold blooded murderer”

And my parents, who watch MSNBC constantly, think he’s scary

[-] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Of course the shooter is scary he didn’t just look in the face of their gods and smile, he straight up made the “immortal” mortal

[-] RymrgandsDaughter@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Recently saw someone say that dehumanizing people is bad. Personally I think the media should stop humanizing monsters. After all, thats all Luigi was doing, killing monsters.

[-] AngryRobot@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

We aren't dehumanizing the CEOs, they're doing that themselves. They put money over people's lives and we'll being every fucking day. I almost died because my insurance fu ked around with approving my insulin last year. Fuck these sons of bitches.
