All the print magazines were bought by conde nast bc they were dying. They’re all the same talking points bc of single ownership and it’s been this way for over a decade now.
“Magazines” are the fm radio of print. Every radio station is the same bc clear channel bought the entire industry and standardized it into a cookie cutter platform nationally. Condé Nast paid for all the dead publications, standardized the talking points across all of them, and milks them for click bait cash.
It’s not news, it’s not information, it’s just trash written for clicks
This is quite possibly the most important post in this thread if not this forum. I hope that statement spurs a few people do start doing some cursory research..
They have 40 “brands” under them directly and those brands own other smaller publications and “newsletters”.
-big surprise- Condé Nast owned Reddit for a while as well.
That’s why all these digital talking points align exactly with one another and with Reddit.
4chan and Win get all bent out of shape like there’s some giant media conspiracy and they’re all individual companies going woke.
It’s not a conspiracy or secret doings. In 2006 all the magazines, digital publications, entire publishing houses, and Reddit, were owned by Condé Nast. It’s one major company putting out the same message, they just created the illusion of separate brands for marketing dollars. It’s all readily available information online too.
Walker’s video has gone viral at a time when anti-vaxxers are trying to gin up the narrative that pilots are leaving their jobs en masse in order to protest the vaccine mandate. On Sunday evening, for instance, after Southwest Airlines announced it would be cancelling more than a quarter of its flights due to an “operational meltdown,” a rumor circulated among those on the far right that the cancellation was due to “sickouts,” or workers using sick leave to stay home to protest the mandate.
There is no evidence that pilots are orchestrating a “sickout” in response to vaccine mandates. The FAA has issued a statement saying that bad weather conditions, in combination with staffing shortages in a Jacksonville control center due to Covid, are the reason behind the cancelations.
I'm sure that this reasoning is just as correct as this asshat's spelling of "cancellations".
There are a lot of them. I've got a couple of Boomer parents who just can't accept that the society they inherited, the one they spent their entire working lives contributing to, was a transient thing, a brief interlude of peace and prosperity in between reversion to the reality of human nature, and that it's well and truly over now.
People keep their heads firmly buried in the sand rather than acknowledge that the governments and institutions they've spent their lives trusting have been politicized beyond recognition and corrupted beyond salvaging.
My parents ignored me for my entire school career as I tried to tell them what was wrong.
As I grew up I started to think that maybe the problem was my inability to articulate the problem. But no, the more articulate I became, the less coherent they became, until they completely degraded into nonsense.
The Boomers didn't just let this happen, they complied to maintain their high standard of living. I have little to no sympathy for all the fools who thought their money would care for them in their old age, who died in retirement homes due to negligence from people who aren't even related to them.
tl/dr: Southwest relies on pilots working overtime to make its schedule. Mandate news dampened enthusiasm, pilots stopped jumping for the time and a half, and cascade of problems ensued.
I don't see how anyone can believe that something major won't happen as vaccine mandates go into effect.
We can clearly see that the number of vaccinations has plateau'd, even despite harder and harder pushing, indicating those not vaccinated intent to hold strong. They can pretend it's due to "lack of access" (seriously, they say this about black Americans not being vaccinated), but we all know that's bullshit when you can get the vaccine literally anywhere nowadays, walk-in.
And we all know that the percentage unvaccinated is at least 20%. Likely much higher, but it varies depending on the source you find. But at 20%, that's a huge hit to the economy.
But there's another variable, too. That 20% figure is across the entire country, but how much does it vary within different industries? We all know that teachers skew liberal, so the vaccination rate among them is probably much higher, maybe 95%. But what about the industries that skew conservative, aka, the people who do actual work? What percentage of the military is actually unvaccinated? Construction workers and other tradesmen? Pilots? Police? Engineers?
If we’re talking demographics, the mandates are the worst in healthcare, tech, education, and contractors. Vaccination rates in most are in the range of 75-95%.
Federal/state employees (military, emergency services, clerks) are not as low as you might think. Many are going along for the sake of keeping their jobs. 58% supported vaccine mandates, so the number isn’t too far less. While 23 percent of all employees would strongly consider leaving their workplace if their employers mandated vaccines, only 11 percent of government employees felt the same. In fact, research indicated that 21 percent of government workers would consider leaving their employment if vaccine mandates were NOT implemented.
The hospitality/service sector is the worst for “compliance”. In mid September data was showing that less than half have gotten any of the Covid jabs.
There’s a 20-30% margin of people who will refuse the jab, but if that number dwindles any more, and push does not come to shove this Winter, then we’re looking at European-levels of lockdown come January or February.
Can't have masses realizing that people smart enough to qualify as airline pilots don't want the vax. Gotta make sure the people think those not trusting the covid jab are toothless inbred trailer trash.

Hey, they are a reputable magazine, they just can’t be bothered to actually look into any claims.
I'm sure that this reasoning is just as correct as this asshat's spelling of "cancellations".
The propaganda has been so blatant for the past decade that now people who see it don't read it and the ones who do read it just want to believe.

So true. I see this with my parents, who still think it is the 1950s.
I called it. I knew they would try to blame this on COVID itself.
Kinda makes sense if you look at it like "Big Covid" - same as Big Pharma, Big Oil, etc it all leads to the same people.
A sort of middle ground explanation:

Member when rolling stone put this faggot on it's cover like he's some type of celebrity?
Like CaptainRon77 said so well, Rolling Stone, like all north American magazines, is compromised.
