Hate TV
1. Television that encourages viewers to hate, despise and fear "the enemy." George Orwell predicted the rise of Hate TV in his novel "1984." Usually found on the cable channels, Hate TV is the fastest-growing type of pseudo-news. Key characteristics include: - Scapegoating (blaming a small group for the problems of all) - Fear-mongering (raising the specter of impending tyranny) - Simplistic thinking (condensing complex issues into a few hate-filled slogans) - Truthiness (presenting rumors as established fact) - Repetition (to give lies the ring of truth) - Stereotyping (along racial, ethnic or religious lines) - Assault Interviewing (attacking guests who disagree with the party line) - Pandering (filling a studio with partisan crowds who will cheer or boo on cue) - Thematic Aggregation ("packaging" a variety of fears, prejudices and hot-button issues under a common theme) - Code Words (using substitutes for common racial slurs, insults, etc.) - Multi-Media Marketing (combining TV with publishing, radio, websites, etc. to reinforce the core message) - Narrowing (redefining the boundaries of "acceptable belief" to ostracize moderates) - Movement Hype (promoting a specific group of people as the only "true" Americans) - Event Manipulation (exaggerating the size, impact or diversity of a protest or political rally) Hate TV inevitably leads to greater political polarization, up to and including acts of violence against the perceived "enemy."
The Urban Dictionary Mug
I can pass away peacefully. This mug is everything I’ve ever needed and more. Fat thank you, Urban Dictionary. <3
I was really excited to receive this mug and when it did come it was perfect quality. My only complaint is that the color I choose was green teal but it came in yellow.
As always, easy to order and not-too-long of a wait for the finished product to arrive. It’s well-printed, and very sturdy. A great gag present for wedding party members.
The mug , color and saying are perfect! PMEO is what I say at work everyday. It has become a favorite saying for my coworkers when things go haywire!
Quality and style are outstanding relative to price point.
Love it! It is my favorite mug. Easy to hold because of its shape and weight. Now my go-to mug.
My wife is truly beautiful and this cup was perfect for her.
Awesome mugs! My GF laughed her ass off, lol!!!

My order was delivered very quickly and was high quality. Glad to add it to my mug shelf.
God is still alive. The existence of this mug shows there is still faith that god is dead and is listening to us. God Bless,
Gay Label Adore this. Ordered for my husband, with the second definition on the back, about the gay filmmaker. Makes a nice discussion starter.
Top notch shipping and exactly what I hoped!!
Best mug i have ever purchased! Subscribe
I love it, but of course the definition Ichose for “Unicorn” is too long and gets cut off after “someone is remarkably attractive.” Is there any way to purchase a second mug that has the rest of the quote on it? They’d make a great set as a present. Please let me know. David Tillinghast dtilling480@gmail.com
