You jest but this is actually a big concern by some higher-ups in CNN if the Q-Anon reports are to be believed.They are panicking about a 2020 Trump loss.
The Dems will have to come up with another way to prop up their propaganda arms.
And do you wonder why I keep stating that the Democratic Party is on it's way out? It's becoming less relevant as it becomes out of touch with reality and less politically relevant.
Why do I jest? That very argument was made on this forum. (Might even be in this thread) and outside of these forums it is usually people of the same political persuasion that say both those contradictory things.

Reality is: they really are propaganda arms of the Democratic Party. But if they are too successful, they will harm their business.
If they are not successful, they lose their backing/funding.
It seems there's no win for places like CNN. And we are seeing people lose more and more viewership because of this political war.
You want force a contradiction with your point, thinking it is a "gotcha." But it really is both situations and there's no gotcha. It's just stupidity.

SpongeBob Squarepants Is A ‘Violent,’ ‘Racist’ Colonizer, College Professor Says
Only a deranged person would think this professor should be involved in molding young minds.

Someone Killed Antifa Outside Leftist Bar Then Crashed An SUV Into Democratic Party HQ

Awful. He might have threatened journalists in the past, but he definitely didn't deserve to die.
I will say the local antifa chapter is claiming that the death was "not related to fascist activity".
A conversation with a friend kind of triggers me. Indian, if it matters.
He claims he landed a job as a data engineer, making 170k abouts. The thing is, he has no work history. 20 years off after college.
He also said his entire work history is fabricated by someone at another company, and the place he's working at has very low hiring standards thanks to Trump making it harder to get passports, or something.
I asked him if he's involved in anything illegal (Why the **** not, he admitted this much) and he cut out of the chat (Over Steam).
So, should I be worried about this guy? We were friends and roomies in college, and I'm wondering what the heck he's mixed himself up in.
Malware factory? Some kind of terror cell?
Or are the legitimate companies this desperate to hire a 40 something year old who's barely competent (Admitted to this, too)?

Big Data Analysts (Basically, they are DBAs + machine learning + the ability to parse through a crap ton of data and find something relevant) are one of the highest in-demand jobs out there, right now.
Get Hadoop and Splunk working together with a nice infrastructure, start shitting out useful data that can inform the strategic direction o the company and you are virtual goldmine for a company. To actually be good at it, you have to be able to talk to execs without being a dick. You also need the mind to figure out what data to look for. It can be mind-numbingly boring work. You really do have to know what you're doing.
$250k is not out the question for a truly important position like that. Some organizations are so competitive that they will offer you massive bonuses for successful implementations of big-data stuff.
He could also be lying out of his ass which is why he killed the chat.
All he knows is some java. He claims he told them he could learn on the job.
I don't know, maybe it really is possible. I just can't wrap my head around someone I know for a fact has been sitting at home playing games all day for 20 years, could even perform well enough to keep his job for six months, as he claims.
If he can, he's a bona fide genius who wasted his potential.

Another idea: He's telling the truth, and happens to be in the perfect job to play to his strengths, and hide his weaknesses.
That job is management. He said he only does small bits of coding, and sends big jobs to teams. If all he does is delegate, I could see work history being irrelevant.
For awhile, at least. He'd be outed as totally incompetent at some point, I'd think.
