The Resistance Is Not Coming to Save You. It’s Tuning Out.
The Resistance Is Not Coming to Save You. It’s Tuning Out.
Summary
Following Trump’s 2024 election victory, the fervor of anti-Trump media and resistance movements has sharply declined.
Outlets like Drudge Report and MSNBC have seen significant viewership drops, while platforms like X (formerly Twitter) face progressive disengagement as figures like Nicolle Wallace and The Guardian pull back.
The “Resistance 2.0” appears muted compared to 2016, with fewer protests, diminished media energy, and a waning appetite for anti-Trump political books.
Critics worry this apathy could weaken opposition to Trump’s more radical second-term agenda, leaving backlash dependent on his upcoming actions.
You're viewing a single thread.
If you're looking to the drudge report for resistance, you were always going to end up disappointed.
The resistance is out your front door. Touch grass. Get involved in local mutual aid groups, find the people doing good things in your community and help them.
NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE YOU. WE PROTECT US.
Same for MSNBC, really. Cable news is owned by people who have a conflict of interest with the working class.
MSNBC called Sanders supporters "brownshirts" but had no such vitriol regarding the January 6 insurrectionists.
Fucking seriously... One asshole even said if Bernie won he'd be put against the wall like having a fucking firing squad aimed at him...
Anything to keep their millions and millions from decreasing slightly... Even fascism apparently.
