the most destructive movement of the last ten years wasn't just wokism. it was the media's lockstep anti-trumpism. think about all the horrible decisions related to the biggest calamities we faced. they were excused or denied by the media, because of their irrational opposition to trump. the biggest examples:
-Crime. if you admitted that progressive policies energized criminality and cost many innocent lives - that would put you on the side of Trump. So you can't do that, decides the media. so theft and violence became routine. recidivism exploded.
-immigration. if you admitted that unfettered illegal immigration stressed all our country's systems, as well as introducing more violent crime - that would put you on the side of trump. you can't do that - decides the media. So it kept going, and people died.
-Covid. if you admitted that Covid came from China, likely a lab leak - then you were on the side of Trump. So you can' do that either - that would be racist, said the media. instead we embraced absurd notions about bat soup.
-Biden. if you admitted he was unfit for office, and reported on it honestly - you were siding with trump. So you can't do that - in fact - you must say that Joe is better than ever, and those who disagree are cruel, ending up with a rudderless country sinking in chaos.
Looking back - its obvious. A mass delusion driven by bitterness, ego and an emotional infantilism brought this country to the brink.
So when the media starts hitting the panic button, laugh at them. They caused this mess. We'll clean it up. They no longer matter.

@Steve-Allen
What person did you realize that you totally misjudged after meeting them?
What is something stupid you did as a teenager that still scares you when you think about it?
Congratulations to @Junemarie53 and @NJFLA. Your questions were chosen for tonight’s Ask Greg and the Panelists.
@Junemarie53 What book were you forced to read for a class book report that you hated?
@NJFLA What’s something you grew up with that kids today have no idea about?
I guess I lead a sheltered life - tho I watch tv and do get out in public. I didn’t know that people still get hysterical about Covid. One of my sons and his family took a trip across the country to visit his father (my ex)and his wife, at my ex’s invitation. My son had what he thought was a cold. It turned out he has Covid (I’m sure my ex had a supply of C-tests at hand). My ex basically exploded and accused my son of critically endangering his wife (who has long Covid, as I do) by not masking on the plane trip there. My son & fam are now at a rental finishing their family trip & not spending the time w grandpa.
Are we back to the hysterical Covid fear of 2020? I just didn’t know that it was that bad again. I rarely see people masked up where I live. I think this Covid fear goes hand in hand w the current political hysteria on the left. God bless America🙏🏻🇺🇸Truly
