    I hate “news” like this… It’s a waste of time.

    One person on Twitter saying something turns into “Twitter says…”

    Politician say x in normal pointless conversation and it turns into “democrats/politicians say…”

    And people feverishly eat it up.

    Our society is fucked.

      I think the people should boycott all headlines with slams in the title. Unless it’s about professional wrestling.
