Eff the effing Faux outrage [View all]

Just eff it.

If you listened to one second of hate-radio over the past 50 years, or watched a second of Faux News over the past 40 years, or watched that vile, orange piece of amphibian shit mock the disabled, or tuned into your TV on January 6, 2021, you can't be shocked by the Donnie Dipshit reaction to the murder of Rob and Michelle Reiner....YOU JUST CAN'T!

If you have been paying attention to the last 50 years of what passes for "journalism", or "entertainment", you knew that we were one-fucking Retrumplican majority away from masked, unidentified, armed fascists snatching people off the street and disappearing them to a death prison in El Salvador, and a Gestapo Stasi force being unleashed in American cities.

It's not shocking.

Donnie Dipshit, on his most vile day, can't compare to the vile shit Rush Limbaugh and his cookie-cutter AM radio fucksticks said EVERY FUCKING DAY, 24/7/365 for over 50 fucking years.

I know who and what the fuck Donnie Dipshit is, but I'd like some fucking statements and actions from the rich fucking bastards and corporations that fund and enable this vile shit.

Nothing will change! The racism, fascism, misogyny, hatred and white supremacy...NONE OF IT...will change, unless and until we make racism, fascism, misogyny, hatred and white supremacy UNPROFITABLE to the corporations businesses and individuals that fund and enable it.
