Oh turns out the reason there was so much of a shitstorm on /pol/ months ago is because the CIA were involved.

The denial/cover/distract strategy works great along side the MSM strategy i wrote about a few pages back:

During the election they pretended at first that the information was fake, albeit the MSM was smart enough to not directly say that because they know that nothing Wikileaks has ever put out has been dis-proven and anyone with two brain cells to rub together could see the DNC leaks were real. Instead they let a much larger number of smaller people lie on their behalf and don't do anything to correct them.

"Waaaaah, I might have to actually pay someone decent money to clean my house! How is that faiiiiiir?!"

 

[Ruin]

One of the things that's really starting to annoy me about the political left is that a large number of them seem to believe that being snarky is the same thing as being intelligent and well informed.

 

[QI 541]

The smugness is probably the main reason I enjoy watching these people fall apart.

I love how these lazy celebrity fucks bitch and moan about Trump being a billionaire bastard dictator, yet this fatass is complaining that his maids now can't go to his house and clean up his filth.

Chaz Bono is the daughter of Sonny and Cher, and had male hormone therapy and surgery, just in case you didn't know.

Trump is literally persecuting transwomyn by banning their illegal housemaids. Oh the horror.

So after the election, The A.V. Club's trying to compete with Cracked for the title of "Cool website that got hijacked by salty progressives". It's mostly in their Newswire articles such as this:

In fact, Fallon has been repeatedly criticized for his soft, playful palling around with Trump in the days leading up to the election—most recently by David Letterman, who reflected in a New York Magazine interview on how he would have relished the opportunity to “have gone to work on Trump,” calling him out on his lies and associations with white supremacists, and generally “give him a bit of a scolding.” Although Letterman explicitly said he “[doesn’t] want to criticize Jimmy Fallon,” the disappointment in Fallon’s performance is implicit. And the fact that Fallon has been repeatedly disparaged for his role in normalizing Trump—combined with his show continuing to function as a sort of fratty Cabaret inside a growing fascist state—probably isn’t helping his numbers among viewers who aren’t really interested in his usual schtick right now.


Of course, it’s not just Fallon: Everyone is feeling the pressure to be “more political” because, quite understandably, it seems to be all anyone can think about. Even here at The A.V. Club, our political coverage (as it were) routinely outdraws everything else by thousands of pageviews; there’s the pervasive sense that right now audiences are only interested in things that directly engage with the world—whose incipient collapse they can’t take their eyes off for a minute—because everything else just feels irrelevant. Fallon would surely also love to get back to just goofing on movies and playing celebrity games full time. Reassuringly, one way or another, the current fevered pitch of political abominations eventually has to slow down or crater out, leaving a shellshocked nation once again gratefully turning to inconsequential silliness. But in the meantime, just like the rest of us, it seems Fallon has to adapt, at least until Mike Pence finally takes over and begins practicing a far more banal form of evil.

TL;DR We're justified in being pretentious and joyless because Trump.

Also, "growing fascist state".

I mean, The Onion's way more well-known than A.V. Club, so people would get upset if The Onion turned into a shittier Huffington Post.

 

[Asuka]

People still read the Onion? Never thought it appealed to modern day millennials.

Univision bought a controlling stake in the Onion not that long ago, and you might recall what Trump did to Univision...

They insist they understand us better than politicians because common ground or some crap, but I have yet to even meet someone who would ever use the phrase "my housekeeper's helper". When your servants have servants, you are the 1%.

It's like they're trying their best to lose their readership base.

This is just another version of that fake "leaked CTR memo" that did the rounds before the election.

Another site for me to avoid expending any time on - thanks for the update.

Too late for that, I'm afraid. Far too late.

I've noticed there's much less talk about "RussiaGate" and related stuff in the media / on twitter. Am I out of the loop and something happened that caused it to stop or am I just missing stuff?

You're out of the loop. I'm still seeing Facebook clickbait about how Trump's campaign was entirely influenced by Russia. Although I think now the shift is gearing more towards Marine Le Pen and her supposed Russian connections, cause lord knows liberals would flip their shit if she won.

Looks like the Shia LaBeouf flag saga is ongoing, with him having gotten a new flag, and posted it in a secure location.

Secured by Shia himself wielding a baseball bat. Autists are already hard at work to capture it.
