Either that, or they are trying to position themselves in a power position post-trump.

I have had people tear my ass up on multiple occasions for trying to remind people that Liz Cheneys anti-trump performance does not, in fact, make her a good person.
That she is still, at her core, a republican piece of shit… and her saying one thing that I agree with (That Trumps a threat) does not make her a good person.
I am 100% not surprised that she secretly tried to protect one of Trumps biggest anchors on the supreme court, who is vital for their 2025 goals and seizing of power.
Because she, like all republicans, are performative assholes who say whatever they think will get them more support and power.
I hate having to be on the side of “Defending” google… but this is the app makers fault, They are the ones using whats provided and installing the artificial limitations.
Google just provided the capability to do it. The app makers are executing it.
I mean, that was only ever true if you were a very specific hue on the color spectrum.
PS4/5 and every xbox are x86

Hes a dancing monkey that brings in tons of ratings, viewership, and revenue.
So media has a vested financial interest in giving him tons of coverage, especially soft coverage, to get eyes on products. Its also why they have a vested interest in his winning, and are doing everything they can (including a mass hysterical hallucination that Biden was somehow old and incompetent due to having jet lag after a whirlwind 3 day international political trip) to ensure trump remains favorable in the eyes of people who wouldnt vote for him if they got the 100% unfiltered coverage about him.
Thats the biggest issue.
There are other issues, of course, helping this along (and benefiting from the above mentioned media bias) are things like the fact that he is a foreign puppet being manipulated by Putin mostly, and by others less so. Which is why they, especially russia, has invested so much money into the NRA, Republican Packs, and most recently, internet jackwads that balding beanie wearing fuckstick and his ilk. To have a chorus of mouth pieces pushing false news and pro-russian narratives, to undermine our democracy and reduce to outright eliminate our presence on the global stage as a bulwark against countries like Russia.
You also have petty powermongers at home that are sounding his call for dictatorial power so they can get their own petty feifdoms.
And the billionaire conservatives who want the world to be a festering cesspit of poverty so they can sleep on their mountains of gold… and are using the media they control to further their goals, by lifting trump up and knocking everyone else down.
and finally, you have the lowest strata, his voters, Most of which vote for him because they want their women to be property, and their non-white neighbors to be property too. and they don’t care how deep into hell everything goes as long as they can be racist twats who don’t have to self censor and are free of repercussions for their twattery.
Theres more minutae to it, and several other layers and strata, but this is kinda the general broad strokes.
I lost a tooth to one of these things.
To be fair, a bunch of teenagers were also involved, making it spin at about mach 87 before it smashed into my mouth.
Because Biden is a boring president.
He had no controversies, He said no outrageous things. The worst thing Biden ever did was show up, heavily jetlagged, to a debate, and still managed to perform decently in it (despite what the mass hallucination the media has incited would have you believe)
He did his job, he did it well.
And because of that, people didnt turn into broadcast media in droves to see the latest tidbits on what he had done. So ratings, and viewership, and profit declined for broadcast media.
Which is why they love and want another Trump presidency.
Because he is always saying something horrible, doing something horrible, has some new horrible controversy, almost every fucking day.
Things that drive people to turn to the news every day and watch, in numbers that havent been seen since 9/11, and those numbers endured for 4 years of presidency.
The Broadcast Media is addicted to trump, and will stop at nothing to ensure they can continue hit their drug of choice every. single. day. multiple times a day, if possible. and the best way to do that is to whitewash everything he does and says, and go after his opponents with an aggression that is worthy of lawsuits, to ensure he can be president again and give them those ratings, viewership and income again.
the tape spooled up on the reel inside a VHS looks like a thi(c/k) dis(c/k)
Projecting a bit with that whole “Acting superior” claim, aintcha.
In an effort to not show bias, we are giving incredible bias to Trump that no one else would get.
Seriously.
It sounds like a fucking nightmare. Imagine working on something for days and it refuses to work cause you accidentally capitalized 1 file name and dont notice it?
That sounds like the kind of shit they’d do in tech hell.
I wish my old angelfire site was still around…
You are trying to put the onus on end users, while also simultainously pursuing some weird guilt based appeal to emotion.
And still refuse to address the core issue, which is the lack of moderation and policing of content creating the essential need for adblockers in the first place.
Ad companies don’t get create this toxic hellscape, then blame end users with wrung hands and empty “Won’t someone thing of the poor content creators” appeals to emotion to try and handwave the responsibility away.
Why won’t they think of the content creators? Why wont they do something to reduce the actual necessity for adblock in the interest of the poor, downtrodden content creators?
Especially in a world where far better alternatives (like merch and patreon type sites) exists to give them money, directly, without having to deal with advertising hellscapes.
Modern Toy Story, but instead of cowboys, dinosaurs and spacemen, its Skabati toilet and all that other ridiculous shit.
I don’t voluntarily consume malware, malicious software, or hate speech/propaganda.
Its just forced upon me when I don’t protect myself.
Are you really happy with yourself, white knighting for the poor defenseless advertising companies? The ones who serve this shit, without policing or moderation? The lack of which is precisely why adblocking, the thing you are trying to blame users for with your disingenuous “You criticize society, yet you exist in society… interesting” type argument, exists in the first place.
All the ad companies have to do to get rid of adblocking is police and moderate their content that they serve. Something they actively refuse to do.
And yet you don’t have a single criticism for that. You have nothing but vigorous defense of it, and shifting of blame to the users, for it.
Your entire post is trying to frame end users for the responsibility of what the advertising companies have done (or more like failed to do) and caused as a result.
You’re trying to hold a fork up and demand everyone acknowledge as a spade, and ridicule anyone who doesnt agree with a very dismissive attitude.
Roms arent adblocking.
conservatives fear the entire idea of transgenderism, because they hate and fear the entire idea of women, and they can not, in their myopic little mind, understand why a man would want to willingly “debase” himself by “pretending” to be a woman. Thats why they think its so perverse and deranged. Because thats how much they hate women.
cause you notice pretty much ALL their antitrans rhetoric circles around the transwomen and penises.
In the years of listening to this vomitous verbal diatribe, I have not heard one single comment about transmen.
