Politico: 'Vox not living up to the hype, explained'

The science is settled. General Electric Vox is now widely recognized as a tedious Web laughingstock.

I could Voxsplain it to you with a whole bunch of annoying and condescending Voxcards but others have already done so including James Taranto last month in the American Spectator. However, while his criticism and that of others might be Voxsplained away by founder Ezra Klein as just having a political axe to grind, now even the liberal Politico has written Vox off as mostly hype and little substance as you can see in the article by Dylan Byers:

It can all be explained in a series of tedious, condescending Voxcards. All you need to know!

[Bogey78O]

Couldn’t have happened to a better pseudointellectual than Ezra.

I’ve never heard of Vox before. But with a leftist running it I’m sure the hype was the usual hyperbolic “the liberal Rush Limbaugh” meme.

Vox suffers from the same idiocy that infests every “progressive” attempt to explain the world to us uneducated rubes.

The writers are “true believers” who view the world through the phony lens of leftist ideology, and are incapable of seeing the truth when it conflicts with their constipated worldview.

So, of course, to them, Obamacare is a success, and if you don’t believe it because the actual evidence shows that Obamacare has been an unmitigated disaster, then the problem is with you, not with Obamacare.

And of course, despite the fact that global temperatures have not been rising for over 16 years all the while that CO2 emissions have been rising steadily, and Mother Nature is not cooperating with the models touted by leftist climate activists, they are true believers in catastrophic man-made global climate change, and so the only reason why you dispute their claims since the evidence contradicts them is because you’re a Christianist ‘repug’ idiot bought and paid for by evil corporate oil interests, and not because their claims are factually incorrect and unscientific.
