I have all the sympathy in the world for the workers here, but I fucking hate the New York Times.

This paper (like most media) enabled the 1st Trump presidency by giving him all the attention as a candidate in the 1st place.

Then they sold themselves as principled opposition and made a pretty penny doing so.

Now they’ve done all that shit again this time around.

Fuck um.

Worth noting that the Clinton-led Democrats pushed for this to happen, then lost to the joke candidate. These people will do anything but give you what you want, even at the cost of losing to a dumbass loser like Trump. You've got to ask if they even want to win.

Wish we'd see more about what some of the actually decent people are up to, like Lina Khan at the FTC: she is kicking ass.
