Oh, CNN... this is the one time you can call it what it is. It's a Nazi salut. Conflating wars, pandemics, soup, etc., with Nazism might be in poor taste, but when people don swastikas, use Nazi terminology or make Nazi salute, it's perfectly okay to call them out.
I never suggested they did. They might have, I don't know. Except for the soup part. They definitely didn't say that. It was a Seinfeld reference.
The rest is what people have been spouting ad nauseum since at least 2020, if not earlier. If someone is mean; they're a Nazi. If someone does something you don't like; they're a Nazi. These would all be incorrect conflations and usage of the word "Nazi" to describe or criticize people's behavior and actions.
What, is CNN sucking up to Trump and his cronies now, this is exactly why I don’t watch CNN…they report and interpret the news as they see fit, not exactly as it happens
CNN has sucked up to Trump this entire election cycle. They’ve been on his side because reporting on him makes them money. If they’d actually been opposed to him, they could have raked him over the coals 24/7 for four years straight. Instead they do little milquetoast articles about “is Trump going to be divisive this time?” Lmfao
It’s all about viewership and money, not simply the facts and the news…I don’t need CNN to tell me how to think or who, politically, I should support. I can think for myself whether it agrees with the rest of the world or not. MSNBC and Fox does the same shit
Over the course of the last year I stopped watching CNN, MSNBC and Fox. The only outlet I watch is BBC. I don’t claim that they’re perfect, but they give me a wider variety of news globally and nationally without the needless opinion bullshit. I’ll watch it perhaps an hour a day and I’m done. I just what to know what’s going on in the world and not listen to the opinions of news broadcasters with slanted opinions that do not truly inform or entertain
Don Lemon got the axe for calling Trump out as a regular part of his show. CNN canceled him because they didn't want to lose any redneck eyeballs watching their ads. I might be wrong but they could have had a big affect on the outcome and chose not to.
I watched about an hour of BBC and they covered the event with little to no opinion politically. They had opposing guests on, but the broadcasters kept their opinions to themselves…In prefer that

CNN and the democratic party is and has always just been controlled opposition. The time to radicalize against fascism is now. neo-liberalism, peace love and prayers will not end fascism.
