    That legitimate debate is impossible while the media is hyper-focused on everything but. That’s exactly why reporting on racism exploded after occupy came dangerously close to threatening the banker’s cartel.

        They’re disingenuously pretending that the media is conflating bigotry with legitimate criticism rather than the far right employing the former much more often than the latter.

      So you are saying it has always been there just underreported? That’s even worse.

      So the media shouldn’t report racist and sexist attacks? And can you point us to any sources of Republicans actually making any sort of good faith attempt at an honest debate about the issues? Because i haven’t seen any in a very long time.

      How is calling Harris a “whore” or the n-word “legitimate debate”?

        It’s not, but you’re being focused on that instead of any of the many people who actually do have real issues they’d like to discuss.

      Neolibs don’t want to think any more than the MAGA cult. Yeah, it’s the fault of mass media. But, the last thing they want to hear while running in fear of Trump is that they’re a bigger obstacle to progress than Trump. They won’t even accept it from MLK Jr’s letter from Birmingham jail.
