Until we get to an information environment where truth matters very little will matter
What they say is nonsensical, but what they mean is usually pretty easy to discern.
Then message them about what they MEAN & not what they say. THEN & only then will they hear you.
It’s deviancy.
A) failed civics and economics
B) never took civics and economics
"Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity".
If they don't watch the news, they don't know any of this. They may not know about the indictments, the evidence, the other lawsuits, etc...
Same if the only watch Fox.
Facts be damned. Low to NO information voters won the day. They chose who should run the country based on 15 sec sound bites.
Good luck, America.
They need to be spoken to in a language, or by other means, that they can understand.
Pay attention people!!
Also: Oh, look! We found the Low-information Voters!
Turned out to be the third option, voters take Trump seriously and literally.
Democracy dies with unserious voters.
“Good and Hard”
FFS, Nicholas was between 12 and 16 during Trump's first term. What do you imagine he was watching between pimple pops, C-SPAN, or MMA?
1) Tough on other leaders? Really? Vodka anyone?
2) Hunger on the streets? Tax cuts for the rich.
3) Botched the pandemic response. Biden creates 16M jobs.
4) Owes NY State $500 million. Wants to revoke ACA.
Ignorance writ large...
What is your solution as to how we fix this crisis? Love your takes, but you offer a lot of dooming without much solutioning…
But you can prevent a lot of it by investing in public education.
Everyone is filled with Fox garbage.
