If you see hate propaganda like this:
in your drugstore or supermarket... And think you can raise a fuss without endangering yourself... Then please talk with the local management people about it, and point out how this is shockingly similar to Nazi propaganda. Try to make people notice that this is a problem.
The manager at my supermarket was friendly and sympathetic. I'm betting others may not be. But if you think you can, please try to raise this as an issue. And please keep trying. There is a process of corruption at work here, and I don't think we have long to nip it in the bud.

Aliens stole my baby!
These papers are to be ignored rather than advertised.

I feel your pain, GJ, but no, I'm not going to confront any managers on their magazine selection.

I'm with geonuc and vendic. If this kind of propaganda ever shows up on a legit paper, then we'll talk.

Bullshit. I'm sorry you've never taken a good look at The National Enquirer before, but this is not something they just started doing after Trump got elected.

I also agree.
Plus honestly the US has been on slow boil a long time, and it's not because of the National Enquirer.

Exactly! I'm pretty certain Trump getting elected has made a number of frogs realize the water is getting hot.

First they came after "The National Inquirer", then they came after Fox news, then the came after CNN, then they reviled at how much better the USA was , and , how it was all because they had the best freedom of speech. lol

Gullible Frogs? lol
Sorry to make fun here GJ.
It's just that anyone taking the National Inquirer seriously has pretty much lost it. If they ever had it.
Complaining about them is nothing different to complaining about The Late show, except the latter is funnier, or more depressing when it does political satire.

So, uh, it's been a bit less than four years.
Y'all's comments didn't age too well, did they.

Well I dunno, half the posts are from people who are no longer there and I still stand by the fact that the National Enquirer is bullshit.

Of course it is bullshit. The problem was never that it wasn't bullshit, the problem was that it was propaganda and people believed it. And now we are staring down the barrel of the possible imminent collapse of US democracy, because this bullshit was the right kind to be eaten up and believed by almost half the US population.
It's the same old "freedom of speech" gambit, and it's still fucking us up.

not much satisfaction in knowing that you were right and that the contrarians completely missed the point is there? it wasn't the 'aliens stole my baby' stories. it was the shilling for our current president.
ok, is qanon a home-grown person given to … fancies or from abroad?

Not much satisfaction, but I sometimes hope it convinces the goyim to start listening for once. (And maybe pigs will fly on kosher wings.)
Re QAnon. IIRC there's evidence that "Q" was one of the founders of 8Chan, uh lemme see if I can dig this up. Here we go:
https://www.dailydot.com/debug/who-is-q ... ns-rumors/in which case as usual with Nazis, the accusations of Jews being pedos are a load of projection.

but still (and there's a 3rd possibility) - someone stirring things up for fun, a true believer or is this from Russia?

My guess both (a) and (b). A lot of these guys don't seem to distinguish between reality and trolling, they believe it for real and at the same time genuinely believe they're being "ironic". For all their talk about Reason and Logic and Rationality, they've basically turned their backs on any notion of objective reality.

When I was younger, I believed in the liberating quality of freedom of speech. Now that I'm older, I see how much of it we've lost, and it's bound to get worse.
