Future historians will look back on these post-industrial-age times as "the stupid age", and it'll be fair.

Disinformation Age.

I like the 'Enshittocene Era' also.

They'll be as baffled as past historians were that most people didn't learn much from the gilded age, the East India Company, imperial monarchies, Roman manorialism, etc. etc.

Until they have their own little version of history rhyming.

The one biggest thing I’ve noticed is how little reporting there is on the war this time, which says something in and of itself.

When the two Iraq wars were going on there was daily briefing of just how much “ass kicking” there was with pictures, theme songs, logos, and daily counts of units destroyed.

Yet the state news, err, Fox, CNN and CBS are feeling oddly quiet or just reporting similar small stories here and there

Is how little reporting there is on the war

They threatened any company that reports bad news about it, and there is no good ~~news~~ propaganda opportunities to bring up.

Please? I beg...the amount of suffering currently may be alleviated by the revelation of systemic abuse.
