    Probably because Fox only makes good revenues when their buffoons aren’t in charge to undermine their narratives with utter incompetence and pure greed.

    Fox needs its viewers to want to start winning, not to be winning. That’s why Tucker publicly put a stop to the Biden “crime family” claims right before the 2020 election, and resumed right after it.

    Their viewership does best when their claims are not falsifiable.

      Imagine how much social and technological progress we could have made if half of our country wasn’t dedicated to tearing it all down at every opportunity…

      It’s so fucking exhausting.

        I think we’ve made enough technological progress for now. Social progress might include a better application of the technologies we’ve had for a long time though.

          Social progress would be a better way to raise children without traumatizing and sleep depriving them to become passive laborers serving the owner class.
