The House Always Wins...

Post by kybkh » Mon Nov 19, 2018 2:15 pm

For one reason and one reason only, they always have money for another bet. You can go on a 10 year run playing vidya poki and before you know it you're tipping the bellhop for helping bring your 20+ battle rifles to the suite before the big payout.

Like a casino, The Media always has time for another hand. You can point out that one party's candidate is approving articles for "independent" outlets and hosting FBI agents at expected victory parties, but at the end of the day The Media is going to have their say.

Like a jackhammer busting through concrete, The Media wins through sheer force and repetitiveness.

Every now and then though, there is a new house.

The information revolution is a grave threat to the very foundation of the media's house.

"The Media" is as real as "The Patriarchy". And whaddya know, right-wing SJW cunts complain just like left-wing SJW cunts about the freedom of speech of people with the evil, nasty, deplorable opinions and demand that their side be given the same opportunity of outcome as the succesful "The Media". :cry:

Fucking weak shit. Carlus, this is what I continously refer to when I point out the danger of adopting the narratives, the arguments and the way of thinking of the enemy? It's like eating shit to "win" against shiteaters.

Both the patriarchy and "the media" are very real.

Bullshit. It's postmodern word-magic. There is no THE capital-P patriarchy, there is no THE capital-M "media.

There's a direct proportional relationship between cursing in English and being Greenlander Pissed, you know.

I need only fire up a news aggregation service like Google News to see the media is one thing, and it's total bullshit.

:doh:

Is Google the only news aggregator in the world? Are news aggregators "The Media"? Do they have journalistic staff, editors in chiefs, that sort of thing? Here's a novel idea for ya: Just don't use news aggregators. Figure out which media outlets you trust, and stick to visiting their sites, only.

anyone that was invited to that off-the-record, "frame the campaign" dinner party before hillary clinton announced her presidential candidacy is The Media. to me atleast. coincidently, wikileaks emails reveal that eric schmidt of google was also in the tank for hillary, so i consider google to be The Media too
