They got you to click. More clicks helps them charge more for advertising. I'm not sure that subscribers even matter anymore.

These are the same people that lecture everyone on why some HB1 jeet taking your job and importing his own extended family is actually good for you.

Mussolini summarized the core doctrine of Fascism with his famous dictum: "Everything in the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State."





Mussolini was a Marxist. He basically did the same as the Soviets but with Italian nationalism vs trying to take over the world.

And people may say, but the military. Yeah the red army marched on nations and subjugated them.

Teen Vogue was discontinued as a separate brand last November and now is just merged into Vogue. With that being said, it was really weird for about its last decade in existence. Almost all of its articles were about politics, and usually woke politics at that.


Hell, the politics were the least of it.

Mayor Humdinger is symbol of the patriarchy and white supremacy with his purple top hat and villainous moustache




Mayor Goodway = Kamala

Mayor Humdinger = Blumpf

The bigger question is when LSU Coyote watches Paw Patrol does that trigger his dog pron tendencies?

Or does he stick strictly to of age canines?

I’m old enough to remember when this was a serious, respected magazine.
The Economist was a lifesaver so many times when I was desperate to complete a paper or project in college. It was a great source for a variety of topics.

Sad, but not surprised it has sunk to this level.

I remember my dad reading that magazine growing up.

Journalism has become the most pathetic/despicable profession. Even surpassing politicians imo.

don't think it's outlandish to think that programming has a slant. Especially one as prolific as Paw Patrol.

It's why the barrier of entry for for independent creators to create shows and get an audience has been so important.

All of the people I watch are DIYers on youtube and runners. Not much of a slant besides product placement.

That's all technically correct. It's also not relevant to the absurdity of the article, which is the point of the post.

My biggest issue with the Paw Patrol is where they get their funding? They must have some wealthy benefactor that supplying all of their high end technology.

Time to examine why The Economist still exists.


Some of the final page obituaries are pretty good. Without that I would never have known that Barney Frank died. It didn't make me miss him, just wonder at the lack of coverage elsewhere.

It has shrunk in size for the print version. And it has survived when Der Spiegel (English version) didn't.

Wait till they find out that while the Mighty Morphing Power Rangers had multiple female members they chose to make the Asian chick the Yellow Ranger.
