The author is asking why kids aren’t protesting yet they have done some of the largest protests in US history. It’s the reason you have to search “Music Festivals” to see protests.
Media conglomerates.
I’m talking out of my ass here but there aren’t any locally owned and operated media companies like there used to be. Most media is controlled by a large corporation.
not that locally owned and operated media companies are much better. petty bourgies vs. haute bourgies, either way they’re just shoving various flavor of boogie ideology in your face. Small “local” news, even before they were monopolized, spent all their time on fearmongering about crime and putting out useless feel-good puff pieces. It’s not like they were putting out cutting critiques of the system or anything. An actual exposé revealing local corruption or scandals was extremely rare, and some of those were probably bullshit smear pieces and opposition hit pieces in a political game.
If anything, it’s better that the small news stations are monopolized now because it’s more obviously bullshit, and it will be easier to seize when the time comes.
The irony here…
