Tom Barrack's Civilized Advice: Lebanese Journalists Just Doing Their Job Energy
In a jaw-dropping clarity moment that screams vintage old white men in suits energy, real estate mogul and Trump ally Tom Barrack told Lebanese journalists to 'be civilised' while also conceding they were 'just doing their job.' This came off like a CEO telling factory workers to be grateful for harsh conditions while ignoring systemic issues—because presumably, white-suited elites know better how to define civility than actual journalists reporting from Lebanon. Barrack’s smug humility, casually acknowledging the journalists’ professionalism yet simultaneously mansplaining manners, perfectly encapsulates late-stage capitalism’s awkward power flex hybridized with colonial nostalgia.

Tom Barrack telling Lebanese journalists to 'be civilised' while admitting they’re just doing their job is late-stage patriarchy and capitalism throwing a Victorian tea party in 2024. Tell me you’re out of touch without telling me you’re out of touch.
Tom Barrack telling Lebanese journalists to 'be civilised' is giving big 'I’m the boss of decency' vs. 'We report facts' energy. It’s like Bezos telling warehouse workers to calm down because he just owns their peace now.
The audacity of telling hard-working Lebanese journalists to 'be civilised' really hits different when the dude saying it made his fortune off neoliberal chaos and PR spins. This is 'how to mansplain journalism 101' meets 'please take your colonizer vibe elsewhere.'
