EDIT DISCLAIMER: I really wish this publicity stunt wouldn’t happen at all because it’s likely to get the fascist clown re-elected, but if it’s going to happen, I may as well peek in on it here and there or at least read about it. doomer
I not talking about boycotts. I’m talking about giving him attention and publicity that he wouldn’t otherwise get. Like live streaming his trial, for example.
They said they weren’t talking about boycotts - as in they are not shaming us for participating in the discussion of this.
They then say

As in that the live streaming of his trial is a bad thing.
They talked about the trial the whole time, you two just misunderstood each other, it’s what happens.
Me: . o O (Why would anyone claim that truth makes the world worse? Oh! It’s someone from Hexbear trying to make the world as shitty as possible. How utterly expected.)
At least it will be free so anyone interested can watch it directly and not get someone else’s biased interpretation
Some people will naturally only want the lazy option, but I think a large number of people from across the political spectrum will watch at least some parts of the trial
Lmao when was the last time the american public watched a presidential debate on its own. There’s a reason you have such a large amount of infotainment that cuts those things down to cute soundbites.
Short memory; there were protests and violence when he was acquitted. I can’t blame you for not remembering it after almost 30 years; chances are you probably weren’t born. But OJ had a lot of rabid, brain dead supporters, and he had a lot of rabid, brain dead opponents. And that was for a single guy (allegedly? He was found not guilty) murdering his wife, not a rich dude trying to subvert democracy.
I really don’t think this is a good idea. Fascist media will be selectively editing the footage to tell lies about what’s really going on, and we all know the people that watch/listen to that garbage are not concerned with actual facts.
The media already does that, so it’s really no different. Without live streaming, the media would just straight up lie about what happened in court and live streaming provides vital protection against that. Trump WILL lie about what happens in court, this is why they are live streaming it.
Disinformation will be spread regardless. Yes, if there’s footage it does mean it can be edited and spliced. But then it’s even easier to clearly show that it’s disinformation if people can just watch the footage.
Precisely this. Whether they have public video of the trial or not, Republicans are going to make up a fantasy version of it anyway. Might as well have this major piece of history on public record as it happens.
So far they have all had the luxury of having their cases behind closed doors. There’s so many times where a judge has laid into them for trying to push ridiculous shit. If that happens (which we know it will because they are clowns) it would be great for the public to see the look on their faces.
Oh great. I’ll get live updates from the Heritage Foundation and the Daily Signal about how Biden’s anarchistic will is being carried out through Fani Willis in an egregious abuse of the law to prosecute the greatest political force for good the world has ever seen since Chile’s Pinochet.
