So do you think the writers haven't paid attention to any events within the last 5 years or do you think they're saying this in bad faith?
It's SNL, they haven't done anything in good faith since Norm got fired.
Daily reminder that OJ killed his wife.
They think their audience is too dumb to know the difference.
At SNL they're usually right.
I think it's a sort of collaborative lie. They're proposing to the audience, "hey, here's a thing we could say that would make trump look bad if we all pretended it was true". And so the pretending commences.
It's the formation part of mass formation psychosis. They're not trying to convince anybody else, they're trying to stop the audience from deviating from the program.
Can’t fight something if it doesn’t exist. This is just gaslighting. Debanking doesn’t exist. Cultural Marxism doesn’t exist. But you know what does exist? Disparate Impact. Patriarchy. White privilege. Etc.
Both, they don't know anything and they're really smug and aggressively tribal on top of it.
I think it was Rob Schneider who said a few years ago after their big anniversary special that the show has devolved into spouting liberal talking points in the most condescending way possible and the audience is just obediently clapping to show their approval for the rhetoric. There's no longer any attempt at comedy.
