    2016 is when the corporate media world - in particular the newspapers showed their ass and decided profit was more important than a functioning democracy.

    No, 2016 was when the corporate media world decided to continue doing the same shit they’ve been doing for many decades.

      Yes but in the face of this:

      The most overtly racist, dishonest, incompetent, ignorant, and compromised candidate possible. EVER. And that’s saying something.

      This wasn’t “GW Bush and his war on terror”-level bullshit this was light-years beyond that.
