What do you mean?

I mean that outrage mobs and frustration circles are all part of the same emotional manipulation to keep people easy to corral, in motion without thinking, and away from constructive action.

As long as the conservative gets a sense of accomplishment and catharsis by watching Tucker and complaining on Facebook, they pose no actual threat.

Do you think all this 'outrage' and 'bombshells' is a game to keep conservatives focused on something so they won't take actual legislative actions by assuming 'someone else' is doing the justice when in fact NO justice is being done? The current distraction seems to me is that 'Trump' will be installed as President pending legal outcome of the stolen elections which they spread false rumors he's going to be in office in August when he never once said that was his goal and most likely will get an intern as President if it turns out Biden gets convicted.

Say any of that on (You name it) alt news site and you'll get blocked as a 'Libtard' or something.

It's a pretty natural human response, and news sites' activity depends on it continuing. No telling where the immaturity ends and manipulation begins.
