but look at what games journalism is looked at? People by far and large think of it as a joke
same story with the media
Not really actually.
_they can't fuck up_
Journalism has no power to influence now that it's become such blatant activism.
Their objective is to drag us down with them
what do u mean ginga
for example... i bought new shoes last month. i did not buy from the brand i would probably have bought because they chose to advertise with the shitty qb that lost "my team" the super bowl by being a shitty qb that does not understand the meaning of "second read".
They can bounce back, we can't
They have different win conditions
Yes
Their win condition is one victory
While the conservative one is constantly win
While the conservatives are winning now
Unless it makes itself more mallaeble there is a chance the dems will win and make a conservative victory harder
Like even if Trump manages to kick out all illegal migrants, reduce Cali's seats
The Dems will simply find another way. Reduce voting ages and unionize teachers.
Basically the dems are losing the battles not the war. The war is over the overton window and that has been constantly shifting left. It has only slowed down now because of Trump but if the republicans don't keep winning and pushing right then we lose that war.
I think Tankman's point is not that lefties are "winning" as of now. But they have no apparent failiure state
So they may not win now, but they cant "lose" either.
It's not Democrats that must lose, it's the ideology of authoritarian equity.
^
So long as it's identity politics
So long as it's authoritarian equity
Either side will lose
Badly
But they can afford to lose right now
and Why is that? Because they have the megaphones we don't, they have the microphones, they have the reach, they own the companies, they own the speaking events, they can choose what gets reported & what gets censored
They have that over us at the moment
Thing is, dont underestimate the repub backlash.
So every loss they suffer is small
but i dont get it
And theres also cause to say that the media actually made more people change their aisle.
And every loss we suffer is potentially dangerous
people dont care anymore about the MSM as they used to
It's an uphill battle but I think we have a chance.
Its the unpredictability that is making the trumpbase more powerful than the MSM cares to admit or even know
A slim one.
And places like twitter have been on the downhill for a few years now
facebook is trending in the same direction, but their public is now the normies essentially
