Drumpf headlines get them clicks

2018-12-29 21:49:30 UTC  

yep

2018-12-29 21:49:49 UTC  

they're so desperate they'll sink to the levels of tabloids if it will keep them out of bankruptcy

2018-12-29 21:49:58 UTC  

trump insulting just gets clicks

2018-12-29 22:18:46 UTC  

The White House and news media are both at fault for that fuckup. The White House should know better than to publish that stuff, especially since it was clearly pandering with MAGA hats and all, but the news media should not have spread it and even researched names and all.

And the information on the event was "We don't know what Trump is doing for Christmas". But they reported he didn't visit the troops.

2018-12-30 01:38:20 UTC  

It's a clear instance of them manipulating their own news to confirm with their inherent biases, or more cynically, to a story that gets them more money.

2018-12-30 06:27:04 UTC  

Its the same thing as calling the AfD Right wing Radicals.

2018-12-30 06:27:09 UTC  

Those Morons...

Vox is either completely illiterate with data, or with common language; or they are dedicated to terrifying ordinary Americans with misinterpreted statistics.

there have been fewer than thirty actual mass shootings (which I would define, I think like many people, as shootings which are also mass murders [four or more people killed unjustifiably in one incident, not including the perpetrator])

2018-12-30 15:44:47 UTC  

and if you take it even further and remove the cases where somebody kills their entire family, or their ex wife's entire family, or their ex his/her friends (and I think a lot of people would agree with differentiating that), it's less still, maybe something like 16.

2018-12-30 15:45:22 UTC  

(too lazy right now to rerun the numbers like I did back in November <https://twitter.com/aaronmhamilton/status/1060997015310610433>)

2018-12-30 15:48:09 UTC  

The TDS is strong in that one.

2018-12-30 15:58:00 UTC  

honestly

2018-12-30 15:58:10 UTC  

other than that it's a pretty good supercut

2018-12-30 15:58:29 UTC  

well, aside from the Ford hearing shit being set right next to the Cosby trial shit

2018-12-30 15:58:40 UTC  

but I would consider that an extension of TDS

2018-12-30 15:59:17 UTC  

Because, in lieu of Trump, they probably would not have brought that shit up even if Kavanaugh were selected.

2018-12-30 16:04:25 UTC  

and I guess I would cut out a lot of the disaster porn

2018-12-30 22:56:43 UTC  

well if it were a Demn

2018-12-30 22:56:48 UTC  

Dem*

2018-12-30 22:57:05 UTC  

They did the same thing with Bush the First and uhh..

2018-12-30 22:57:13 UTC  

The Black Judge I think.

```Vox is either completely illiterate with data, or with common language; or they are dedicated to terrifying ordinary Americans with misinterpreted statistics.```
They are left wing radicals that want to skew the Facts into their favor.

2018-12-31 01:48:39 UTC  

Like that bitch working for a green party member in Germany, claiming that the AfD is a Neo-Nazi radical right wing party - and is allowed to speak on the 35C3...

2018-12-31 01:50:46 UTC  

I like vox's apolitical pieces, their fluff is so feel-good. Unfortunately, the rest of it is garbage

2018-12-31 01:52:06 UTC  

Yes, because they can't be honest and neutral

2018-12-31 01:52:14 UTC  

I see the same shit with XBox One Fanboys.

2018-12-31 01:52:23 UTC  

most dishonest people I've seen.

2018-12-31 01:53:34 UTC  

For example that.

2018-12-31 01:53:43 UTC  

they say that that isn't an issue and not a problem for most people...

2018-12-31 01:54:19 UTC  

It shows that you can not buy an XBox 360 DLC on an XBox One with the money you have in your XBox Account.

So now the right one ^^

2018-12-31 02:01:22 UTC  

@GoldenPhoenix What's your oppionion on that screenshot?
Is it a big deal for you? If you have to use a credit card, Paypal or something like that instead of the Microsoft Prepaid things you can get in store...

2018-12-31 02:03:47 UTC  

that's not a big deal for me because I don't use xbox/microsoft store, but that's shit and is a bad business practice

2018-12-31 02:04:34 UTC  

at least they tell you up front "no refunds"

2018-12-31 02:04:45 UTC  

they don't try to hide their scumminess
