The Leftist Media In the United States Is One Of The Biggest Impediments To Progress Because It Is Insane

Several days ago, I thought there was a glimmer of a hope that there would be reality break through in the lefty zines because In These Times posted a piece by Sady Doyle, A Progressive Case For Clinton.  Finally, I thought, someone is facing the real reality and an actual magazine of the left has published it.  Maybe it was the first sign that the pivot from the romantic dream of a Bernie Sanders presidency in which he would finally bring the corporations down and deliver the public good would give way to the waking reality that Hillary Clinton is going to be the most liberal person with a chance to be President of the United States in January.  That she was the only thing that would stand between us and President Trump. I finally thought that they would cut out the nonsense and realize that an overtly racist, sexist, incompetent TV reality-show huckster would be president if she were not and act responsibly.

But this morning I read at In These Times they've put up a counter-piece to Doyles, by Douglas Williams,  a doctoral student in political science at Wayne State University in Detroit, slamming Hillary Clinton and encouraging people to vote for someone who will never, not in any of our lifetimes put end-to-end be president, Jill Stein.

And that kind of thing is the current state of affairs at, literally, every single magazine site of the left I've looked at in the past week. 

Their behavior this year has woken me up to the fact that the media of the left more often than not is an impediment to change because they are run by nut cases and staffed largely by them.   Anyone who experienced the George W. Bush presidency, anyone who can remember the Reagan-Bush I regime, and certainly anyone whose memory extends back before the Nixon years who has learned so little from that experience that they would be encouraging people to vote for anyone but Hillary has forfeited the right to expect anyone to take them seriously.

The leftist media has enabled the tumble of the country into Republican-fascism, this year is the one they just might seal the deal that they have tacitly made with them to hand it over on the incredibly stupid and delusional idea that if they screw up the country bad enough that it will magically turn everything around in the opposite direction.   If it's the influence of the incredibly stupid superstition in the dialectic, who knows?   Whatever it is that makes them so stupid, let me tell you, I've been reading them being that stupid for the past fifty years of Republican-fascist advancement and they've learned nothing at all.   Maybe it's because so many of the people who run the leftist media are members of the educated elite who aren't all that worried about their own careers and lives.  Maybe it's because so many of them live in the largely make-believe world of social sciences and the degenerated humanities or are too young to really have experienced how bad things can get.

I don't know the comprehensive list of why the leftist magazines and media are obviously non compos mentis but, this year, seeing how they are acting, what they are saying, the fact is that they are and they have had a big hand in blocking progress and enabling the enemies of everything they claim to favor.
