We asked 100 single women their favourite brand of liquorice, number 29 will amaze you
Could cryptocurrency solve global warming? Join us at 5 to find out
Chinese plane spotted flying over China, could this mean nuclear war?
Could NFTs be the secret to protecting your family from critical race theory?
They hit the fucking Pentagon!
1, 2,
1, 2, 3, 4

Another day another war crime turning children into snow
You’re poorer than you’ve ever been, profits mysteriously grow
All that and more of gory details, keep you glued to your tv
But not before our sponsors pray upon your insecurities
Don’t you wish you weren’t so ugly, stupid, awkward and afraid
Maybe your parents would have loved you if you bought our new champagne
Our burgers are all feminists, our soda is depressed
Sweatshops breaking laws on slavery still they’ll never get addressed

tell you what are sponsors really want to you to believe
might not be the truth but we’ve got three chords up our sleeve
Fact and fiction, mix the two, you’ve got the right idea
shiny piece of plastic reels in bigotry and fear

shove it down all your throats
see how far it goes
won’t stop till you choke
won’t stop till you
leave the truth at the door
they’re invading our
sure, it’s all slander
pure propaganda

sure, it’s all slander
pure propaganda
sure, it’s all slander
pure propaganda

Piles on piles of content specially picked to make sure you don’t close our app
Fund research on addiction, always good to have a roadway map
Pull to the right, so they’re extremists, but won’t peek behind the curtain
If they do, then spread conspiracies so they don’t know for certain
There’s more news than ever, more to pick to craft a narrative
No longer corporate media, AI now controls the way you live
Post what we want, so will your peers, and if you don’t, you’re left behind
This artificial beauty crushes you to keep you all in line

shove it down all your throats
see how far it goes
won’t stop till you choke
won’t stop till you
leave the truth at the door
they’re invading our
sure, it’s all slander
pure propaganda
shove it down all your throats
see how far it goes
won’t stop till you choke
won’t stop till you
leave the truth at the door
they’re invading our
sure, it’s all slander
pure propaganda

And of course, I’m not saying I agree with his politics, but he is saying what everybody’s thinking.
Better keep up on fashion trends, ladies, because artificial intelligence is the new pink.
Coming up right after these messages, is Elmo the newest victim of cancel culture?
One benefit of inflation, people work a little harder.
If you’re a nonbinary trendsetter like me, you know defending your identity is as empowering as it gets, that’s why I’m partnering with Lockhead Martin, because my pronouns are more than an attack helicopter, they’re the future.
And after weeks of debate, congress has finally declared trees unconstitutional.
And Elon Musk’s 42nd child Xavier_XOXO_WarCrimes Musk, is currently leading the polls for republican candidate
Ladies, do you feel dirty down there? Good.
Synergy, Synergy, Synergy, Synergy, Synergy

shove it down all your throats
see how far it goes
won’t stop till you choke
won’t stop till you
leave the truth at the door
they’re invading our
sure, it’s all slander
pure propaganda
shove it down all your throats
see how far it goes
won’t stop till you choke
won’t stop till you
leave the truth at the door
they’re invading our
sure, it’s all slander
pure propaganda
shove it down all your throats
see how far it goes
won’t stop till you choke
won’t stop till you
leave the truth at the door
they’re invading our
sure, it’s all slander
pure propaganda
shove it down all your throats
see how far it goes
won’t stop till you choke
won’t stop till you
leave the truth at the door
they’re invading our
sure, it’s all slander
pure propaganda
