This is a good example of one of the uglier incentives in political media.
I’m not saying Stephen Miller is reasonable here, or that his politics deserve some soft-focus sympathetic framing. The quotes are plenty extreme on their own. But that’s kind of the point: if the facts are bad enough, just tell me the facts.
Instead we get the usual headline-maximizing language: “meltdown,” “unhinged,” “bonkers,” etc. It’s written less like information and more like bait for people who already hate the guy to click, dunk, and share. That’s the same machinery that twists stories in every direction: find the most emotionally flammable wording, strip away nuance, and make the reader feel like something more dramatic happened than what the article actually shows.
This is why people distrust media even when the underlying story is real. The reporting may be about an actual ugly rant, but the packaging trains everyone to react to the spin first and the facts second.
“If it bleeds, it leads” has basically become “if it enrages, it engages.”
faux news is not news or facts. Make of that what you will.
Imagine his meltdown if he ever faces justice.
Dude talks tough but lives on a military base because he’s a scared shitless and is a coward. Good.
The issue here is that the US military still obey this regime and protect these monsters.
I am honestly surprised he feels safe on a base. All it takes is for one person to snap and they already have easy access to weapons and know your routine.
Imagine some soldiers girl friend gets deported and he is on the same base as Miller.
My brain just failed at reading that like four times and was reading it as “he was a scared shirtless it’s and a coward”. I was like, no that can’t be right… And kept rereading it. I’m not having a stroke, you’re having a stroke.
This Calliou-looking motherfucker used his pregnant wife as a human shield
“Right? Living in a state of total anarchy, without police, without law enforcement, where criminals can rape and maim and murder with impunity, where your kids are taught from the age of two to hate America, to hate their God, to hate their parents, to hate their family, to even hate their own gender, that’s their agenda,” he continued.
He’s right. It’s always been my Leftist opinion that hate is the best option. In fact, we should teach kids to commit suicide at every opportunity. This, plus my policies on ending homelessness, taxing the rich, providing livable wages, you know, all those things to relieve people of the horrible shit our current system offers… But yeah, after that, teach kids to murder themselves cause that’s also Leftism. And you know what else? We’ll murder some babies cause wtf do they expect from us.
These people are stupid and incurious.
This walking thumb is always whining about something
Ohnoes! The peasants might start finding out that their gov is supposed to work FOR them! Next they’ll be expecting justice and benefits and QoL!
The choice is between Democratic Socialism or MAGA Socialism, so I’ll take the Democratic brand every time.
What a proper dickface this man has. And the funniest part is that he will end up US “president” one day
No, he won’t, he’ll end up in a noose.
As fun as that would be im gonna [X] doubt
I care not one iota what Stephen Miller nor the NY DSA has to say
The media must stop calling these meltdowns and call them what they truly are: planned, executed republican talking points to stoke fear and anger in middle-of-the-road voters, the people who don’t follow politics but vote for presidents, and dedicated base.
Change the headline to “Same Ole Same Ole from bald Hitler-wannabe” and you take power of fear and anger away.
I think the words you’re looking for is ‘propaganda’.
“… wants to tear America down and destroy everything that we know and love, from top to bottom.”
yes. what you ‘love’. absolutely.
Miller said there used to be “a center-left Democrat Party,” or what he characterized as “Reagan Democrats,” before launching into his tirade.
There still are, including most of the leadership. There also used to be center-right Republicans. I’d argue they’re far fewer of them these days. Trumpisim is so far right that they’re dragging the definition of center over with them.
I can’t wait to see this fascist evil little cuck rotting in jail for his crimes. You know it’s coming, it’s just a matter of when.
Unfortunately, I’ll be super surprised if that ever happens
We will see. I have a good feeling about him. Many of the others, and the actual billionaires behind it all are never facing justice, but this little evil worm is going to get what he deserves when the Democrats come back into power with a vengeance. Maybe not until 2028+, but it’s coming.
I’d be happy to be wrong.
He’s not powerful or rich enough to avoid any justice, and when it all comes crumbling down much of the blame from both Republicans and Democrats will be placed on him I believe.
“If Only the King Knew”
Fuck that I want him in stocks for the rest of his days
Have you ever noticed that both stocks and bonds refer to devices for imprisonment?
