    Hard agree. Political reporting and discourse are in a sorry enough state as it is without charging headfirst in a race to the bottom.

    The only people who seriously engage with things like #tangate are the lowest of low information voters who Republicans have trained to view politics as entertainment to distract from how badly they are being conned. A little light meming is fine to show you’re onto the game, but we absolutely do not need that politics-as-entertainment mindset to spread any further.
