Honestly mystery meat could be a good way to describe new media taken as a whole, but it ignores that the butcher has been selling you prime cuts that are rotten and laced with rat poison for decades. Actually a better analogy for old vs. new media might be The Cathedral and The Bazaar by the old commie Eric S. Raymond. You're gonna find some weird shit at the bazaar, but people eventually find out which news merchants they like and which ones are BSing them and should be ignored.
This is the crux of it right here.
I’m smart enough to think for myself. I can sort real from fake, I can spot a phony pandemic or a bullshit vaccine or a rigged election or a false flag. I don’t need a bunch of condescending, credentialed liars to do my thinking for me. Especially when they’re clearly dumb as pigshit, and just spewing whatever their shitbag editors tell them to say. Fuck all of them
There's also the fact he's announcing he views you as an idiot pleb that needs to be ordered what to do, and beaten for falling out of line. But we know that post-Covid.
