gaslighting was given unmerited serious consideration.

Now, for the most part, the Sweitzer (sp) and Solomon and Sara Carter and Byron York fictional accounts are being dissected in real time. The game is the same over there, but it is such a limited game book and the plays are fairly anticipated.

I tried to do the Breitbart thing in the summer of 2016 (and I was late to the game). The energy there and at Drudge was a thing to behold. Plus, the incels and Russians were flooding the internet with anti-Hillary stuff daily as she neared her death bed, having sold out Uranium One to Russia just before dying. The energy of the alt-right was a real thing

Today, Breitbart is a rather low energy sleazy cesspool of victimization. Drudge is at best ambivalent leading often with anti-Trump headlines in bright red. I'd guess Fox is still loyally soldiering on in the symbiotic Trump relationship. And from the links the far, far right blogs like Hot Air still are invested. The problem is that nobody reads Hot Air except those deep inside Trumpland. They influence no one.

Trumpism as a movement is waning. The unexamined days of the far right gaslighting ended.
