think about how insane it is that they tried to assassinate a former president running for president again just think about how batshit that is now think about how you basically forgot about it because the world is now desensitized to everything

when people snoozed the alarm on literally every mass casualty event (sandy hook etc) these events became *normal*

The world moves at the speed of information, and the speed of information now is faster than we can even keep up with. When the attempt happened, I pointed out we still had months before the election and *anything* could happen. Sure enough did.

Kind of in nobody's interests to talk about this one. Left don't want to because it helps Trump at the margin. Right don't want to because it was a kid who'd normally do a school shooting trying his hand at presidents, and the sensible response is maybe there shouldn't be an AR-15 in every suburban home

News cycles are tiny in an information saturated environment where news travels extremely quickly. Virtually nothing stays front and center for very long, and things that happened a month or two ago feel like they happened five years ago, because as a practical matter in terms of the impact it’s the same.

meh i think its quite exaggerated. everything is sensationalized on social media, and everyone falls into their bias. trump is not a fascist and kamala is not a communist.
