Right on cue, @NPR just both-sidesed the #Trump "bloodbath" comment.

GAH.
They're never going to get it, are they?

@DeliaChristina @BruceMirken @NPR idk, I would say they have gotten it - they are the channel of Centrism™️, shifting the center farther right and preventing backtracking at every opportunity. They're partly federally funded, so it's fair to speculate their complicity with the fascists is coming from a place of self preservation in recent times.

That's deep. Oof. Npr used to be seen as Left.

@DeliaChristina @RebelGeek99 @NPR The right always claims NPR is lefty, but it's mostly the mushy middle.
@BruceMirken @DeliaChristina @NPR. Yep. I prefer my #localradio station https://kboo.fm they're more grassroots funded, host great music, discussions about diverse topics, and have news update broadcasts from the World Socialist Web Site https://www.wsws.org , featuring voices from the actual Left addressing key issues head on (M4A, climate, bodily autonomy, COVID , immigration, etc.). They have a small but dedicated following, very much #laresistance vibes ✊🏻

The biggest mistake here would be to interpret this as merely naivete or ignorance. Yes, these qualities are well represented in msm, but the real driver is alignment of interests.
