I find far right people including politicians amusing.

You know those tabloids that used to be around in the 90s with wild headlines like "SANTA'S ELVES REALLY SLAVES FROM THE PLANET MARS!" or "UFO ALIEN NO LONGER VISITS BUSH." Their whole anesthetic gives me that vibe, as if a tabloid became a human. They always have made up groups to fit conspiracies like Antifa being a real organization with head quarters or how the moon landing was fake or worse, there's events that really happened but they're overly dramatized or only partly true. That's kind of what I mean, they are literally living tabloids.

The funniest part is that I used to read it like it was real and I was addicted to those stories but that's when I was like 9 years old lol rather than these far righters of 40 to 80 years of age.

Wild.

I loved The World Weekly News growing up! I wanted to be a writer for them but they didn't take independent submissions. Could you imagine the crazy of they had though?!

@FoxyGoddess I loved those guys. The bat boy alone. I don't know how that became a running gag or where they got the original photo, but they made so much of it.

@LordShadowfire i always wanted to send them a story about how aliens are allergic to corn, that's why they only make crop circles in wheat fields.

@LordShadowfire @FoxyGoddess I liked those magazines too just not in politics. I grow tired of the whole Soros anti semetic stuff or how antifa is a literal terrorist organization. Especially when the far right accounts for more terrorism since there's more accelerationist Nazi groups on their side of the aisle.

@SatanBurger There's a documentary about how the National Enquirer got hijacked as a Trump propaganda machine. I can't remember the name, but the short version is he knew the owner of the publication and pressured him to run positive stories about him.

The WWN never sold out, though. Bat boy forever!

@LordShadowfire That's honestly interesting because I feel like when I hear Trump speak it's a lot like the bat boy magazine so it's wild that Trump was a fan.

I'm happy the magazine didn't sell out though, respect
