Have been thinking for some time that the proliferation of #aislop has something in common with the #debasement of the currency that was practiced in old times when coins contained silver or gold.
The objective of the "coiner" was to get the face value from others, but give them something intrinsically less worth.
Reminds also of #shrinkflation, reducing the size of products just enough to pretend it's the same, and thus keeping same price.
In any case it's poisonous for social contracts.

McLaughlin said the pitch had not yet reached the level of #DHS Secy #KristiNoem. She said on social media on Thursday that the department “receives hundreds of television show pitches a year,” including for documentaries about border operations & white-collar investigations [but this is what they’re considering green-lighting]. “Each proposal undergoes a *thorough vetting* process prior to denial or approval,” McLaughlin said.

She said #DHS was happy to review “out-of-the-box pitches,” particularly those that celebrate “what it means to be an American.”
The project was reported earlier by The Daily Mail. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14713113/DHS-Secretary-Kristi-Noem-reality-TV-immigrants-compete-US-citizenship.html
Worsoff told WSJ the show was not intended to be punitive. https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/dhs-is-considering-reality-show-where-immigrants-compete-for-citizenship-47de277c?mod=author_content_page_1_pos_1
“This isn’t ‘The Hunger Games’ for immigrants,”Worsoff said, adding, “This is not, ‘Hey, if you lose, we are shipping you out on a boat out of the country.’”[sure, right.]

McLaughlin said #DHS was still reviewing the idea, which she spoke about several weeks ago with a producer named Rob Worsoff.
“The pitch generally was a celebration of being an American & what a privilege it is to be able to be a citizen of the United States of America,” she said. “It’s important to revive civic duty.”🤯

Ok now this is absolutely revolting:
A #RealityShow where #immigrants compete for US #citizenship? #DHS is considering it.
DHS is considering taking part in a #RealityTV program that would have immigrants go through a series of challenges to get American citizenship, ofcls said Friday.

Strength was implied by the equally choreographed demonstrations of #debasement. #NikkiHaley, who had repeatedly questioned whether #Trump is “mentally fit” …& had declared that “the first party to retire its 80-year-old candidate” will win the #election—offered her “strong endorsement.” The VP nom, #JDVance, who previously compared Trump to #Hitler & described him as “cultural heroin,” performed a kind of kowtow, appearing at the convention in the form of supplicant, acolyte, prodigal son.

> "If this thing gets to these levels of appreciation, it's going to completely replace gold and become something that has transactional utility for hard assets," Palihapitiya said. "If you marry that with this fear that some folks have about dollar debasement, you start to see some interesting opportunities."
