This. You can usually spot bots from their low- value click bait. ("should cannibalism be legal?","why does God allow evil to exist?","Trump is a genius", etc).

Popular media is the worst place to find a name for your kid. Remember all the parents who named their daughters "Danerys," before she went insane in Season 8 and burned an entire city full of innocent people alive? I wonder how they feel about that choice now. That poor kid is doomed. You might as well give her a stripper name

This is that "liberal news media" that Republicans keep yammering on about.

The one that's owned by six corporations.

We don't hate "capitalism."

We hate being farking exploited.

The U.S. also has a huge defense industry that has made people ridiculously rich at the expense of U.S. taxpayers. Those billionaires are heavily invested in the defense industry, so it's not in their interests that wars end at all.

This is that "military-industrial complex" that former President Eisenhower warned us about so many years ago. His concern was that the U.S. would become bogged down in an endless series of "forever wars" that do nothing but transfer wealth to the already-wealthy.

Keeping that military industrial complex well-fed is the reason why so many politicians have such a boner for war. Not only to keep their wealthy sponsors happy, but to keep tax money and jobs flowing to their states, which just happen to manufacture war materiel.

And if Elmo does it again, he'll get an even stronger warning.

It must be nice to live a consequence-free life.

If you're growing onions in a field that doesn't have proper drainage, the water/fertilizer can actually build up in the tissue of the onion and surface washing doesn't help.

The E. Coli probably comes from the poop water the onions were soaking in.

"Trickle down economics"

They're literally saying, "we're pissing on you."

Story is confusing. Is the second person with the dying mother the business owner or the second employee who pointed out the bosses assholish behavior?

Maybe Tesla shouldn't be allowed to call their enhanced cruise control "autopilot." Everyone knows how "autopilots" are supposed to work.

This is Israel's setup for bombing a damn hospital. Not that they've ever cared about needing an excuse, before.
