    It’s a fair point, but don’t think about it as someone-posted-it-to-lemmy think about it as The Guardian thought it was amazing this donald trump character would say something outrageous.

    As if they just woke up in the world this morning and were completely perplexed as to how a demented sociopathic rapist fraud could have said such a thing.

    This is what we’re talking about with regard to corporate news media constantly supporting Trump and his campaign. If the reporter was actually allowed to phrase the title, it would be something like “Fuck me, another verbal turd from spray-tan bozo” or . . y’know, something. Instead, it’s this sanitized, starched white “How interesting that such a provocative comment was made” headline which is pure and utter bullshit and everyone is completely aware of it. That’s the 1984 happening.
