Why do I say we are helping them? By we I mean conservatives broadly, not so much this particular site and its users. I see it happening in real time with the Trump shooting.

I see a pattern unfolding over and over and over again and I'm getting sick of it. Mainstream corporate media has lost the overwhelming majority of its viewers. Trust in them is at all time lows. Yet a suspicious number of "conservative" influencers still act as if the media is all powerful and unstoppable, and I don't think this is purely chance.

It is a simple process and I see it play out over and over again.
1.) The media tries and mostly fails to make a story go away.
2.) Here's the key part. "Conservative" doomers influencers flail their arms around in despair saying that the media buried the story. They imply in every way short of saying directly that the story is now buried and we have no choice but to move on.
3.) We stop talking about it and move onto the next subject because we have accepted as fact that "the media buried the story." thanks to our wonderful doom-pilled pundits and influencers.
4.) NOW, thanks to our compliance, the story is buried, rather than simply suppressed.
5.) Doompill influencer seems like they were right the whole time, retains their audience.

I'm not saying it's always this simple but I feel like this is a big blind spot for us.
