    Good point!

    I’ve written before that I think a lot of these sites intentionally do the Jerry Springer thing.

      Oh, no doubt.

      And there are plenty of groups out there that know how to create …engaging… videos, specifically for the purpose of getting people to hate the Other of the Week. Wouldn’t want the peasants to figure out who’s really screwing them…

        That’s a good point too.

        Honestly, the anti-establishment left and the anti-establishment right have a lot they could agree on if there wasn’t so much media pointing out the few things they disagree on (or inventing things to disagree on)
