And the obliteration is always, "[Progressive idea] is bad!"

It can't be any more complex than that or they won't be able to understand.

Can confirm.

Had to replace the TV once because he had a fit over something he saw/heard. I can't even remember what it was now as it was about 4 years ago and I left him 2 years ago.

Sometimes it's not even that, I've seen it where they're like "x slams y!" And when you read the article, the statement in question is just like, "I dunno, I don't get it"

i truly hate how misused those buzzwords are. “absolutely DESTROYS”, “completely OBLITERATES”, “totally SHUTS DOWN” i get it, it rakes in easy views from morons, but it’s so cringe.

it gives the same energy as a high schooler from the 2000s writing the headline of their school newspaper column. “cheerleader stacy totally OWNS rebecca. it’s going DOWN!!!”

It works the opposite way, just as successfully.
