    I hope the mods ban all forms of this comment Water is wet, news at eleven etc. It is a Russian Propaganda technique to disarm outrage. To normalize outrageous behavior. To make it such as we all know it. While most of us already know about it, some didn’t.
    My point being “water is wet” and All variations of this adds nothing to the conversation and should be banned as it inevitably ends up in every comment section related to a corruption

      Sounds a lot like the sarcasm that I often post, actually. Though I’m deeply cynical about the world, which is a banal reason for it.

      What?

      I’m literally some dumb dude just making a joke…

      Fox was created to control what Republicans think about their elected officials. It’s propaganda. The executives being all “omg it’s a disinformation machine” is absurd given they know what they intended to create which is why I made the joke about “obvious thing is obvious.”

      If you didn’t know that’s what they did then you learned it from the article, if you already knew then hopefully you just chuckle at a dumb joke. My comment doesn’t affect anyone in a negative way, all I aim to do is make someone laugh it’s not nefarious…
