@european_action It's weird though. Presumably Tugger's viewership is 70+ old-whites. But he seems to be catering to the 20+ online Right, who watch clips of his show on Twitter. — PolitiTweet.org

@european_action I actually thought “Tugger” would casually lie, and start claiming that he was always skeptical of the Russian military, etc. Instead he just broadcasts outright Russian propaganda—more delusional than what you see on state TV. — PolitiTweet.org

At best this is delusional—but that begs the question, why be delusional about a foreign adversary? Regardless, by promoting "Baghdad Bob"-tier commentary, Tucker Carlson makes a strong case for government content regulation of the national airways. — PolitiTweet.org

@T0mmyVercett1 No, it wasn't. But that's not my point. The predictions were not based on serious analysis, only giving "vibes" to their audience. Secondly, no reassessment or self-criticism will occur. — PolitiTweet.org

Some "dissident" figures are assets of the Russian government; some are Russian nationalists, who write in English to an American audience for their own reasons; some are grifters; and some, I assume, are good people. All participate in the "vibes economy" of the alt-media. — PolitiTweet.org

Yes, I'm cherry-picking and taking the opportunity to dunk. That said, a) these accounts are representative of the "Dissident Right" as a whole; and b) such alt-media personalities will suffer no consequences for their inane and tendentious commentaries on world events. — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s a smattering of the insights one finds among the alt-media, not beholden to the establishment’s hegemonic narrative, free to peruse rigorous scientific analysis. You can’t find this at the New York Times! https://t.co/uSX7ADP0Y3 — PolitiTweet.org

The mainstream media—however woke, liberal, self-impressed, and beholden to power it might be—has some "skin in the game." If the NYT reported inaccurately on Ukraine, or didn't correct itself when it did, it would suffer consequences, if only loss in prestige. — PolitiTweet.org

There is no real incentive in the alt-media to tell the truth. At the very least, this incentive is vastly outweighed by the incentive to "produce vibes": that is, establish an audience by offering some needlessly contrarian viewpoint to the mainstream. — PolitiTweet.org

We have gone from a "Technological Society"—described by J. Ellul, as a top-down content-delivery and consensus-bringing system—to a "Network Society" of self-interested, hermetically sealed, and, in most cases, utterly idiotic "clans" of media consumers. — PolitiTweet.org

Regardless, we are in a place where Sally in Nebraska is more like to get her "news" from an anonymous Facebook influencer than her local paper; for her, the New York Times isn't just liberal or snobby—but evil! — PolitiTweet.org

There are many causes of this transformation: most notably the the explosion and democratization of technology and social media; the general dumbing down of the public; and, to be fair, catastrophic moral and intellectual failures of mainstream institutions. — PolitiTweet.org

Around 2016, we witnessed a transformation in the status of the alt-media. It, in many ways, became more powerful and numerous than the mainstream. The term "fake news" was coined to denote obviously false stories that had greater traction on Facebook than mainstream reporting. — PolitiTweet.org

Thus, it was the role of the alternative media to pursue the truth. The alt-media might very well get some things wrong, and it might be too tolerant towards cranks, but at least it was a place where truth-seeking (and not hegemonic narratives) held sway. — PolitiTweet.org

Bringing up topics like race differences in IQ, or offering a critical perspective on American empire in the 2001-2003 period, would get you fired or demoted at MSNBC, the NYT, or Fox News. — PolitiTweet.org

There was once a "myth of the alternative media"—a myth I fully bought into. Basically, the hegemonic media ignores or suppresses important facts, analyses, and perspectives because they do not adhere to its hegemonic master-narrative. — PolitiTweet.org

Regardless, my main points are a) Tim has a tendency to be wrong because he's dumb; b) There's no criticism or punishment structure in place to correct Tim when he's wrong; c) There are real incentives for Tim to be wrong, so long his wrongness produces the desired "vibes." — PolitiTweet.org

Perhaps I'm letting Tim off the hook, as his schtick can be weaponized. There's reason to believe that he was very much in the loop of January 6 and was certainly catering to these buffoonish coup plotters. https://t.co/59P8Vpbirc — PolitiTweet.org
