In pondering the worship of stupid, ignorant, arrogant Socialist (Fascist, Communist, etc.) politicians by the stupid, ignorant, arrogant members of the corporate establishment Press, something occurs to me.
Many of today's "journalists" seem to have no marketable skills: they can't code, they can't weld, they can't mine coal, and most of them can't even write good. It seems the only jobs open to them are Character Assassin and Flatterer.
And a permanent one-party state is nearly as good as a hereditary monarchy when it comes to supporting a permanent gaggle of courtiers. For a while, anyway. And the stupid, ignorant, and arrogant never seem to perceive that the gravy train can't last.
