True. Fox, Shapiro, and how do you miss the original right wing shithead Rush Limbaugh. Have you ever listened to what they say? I wouldn't blame you for not, but all it is is putting a lens on shit like cancel culture, tricking them into believing that's the way the world is ,well maybe 20% that and 80% fabricating their own new lies, but its almost entirely built off of stuff that was all originally made throughout regular news which anyone could see, which allowed people who didn't like louis c.k. being canceled because they liked his comedy and now they're mad, but look fox news agrees with me, ill start watching their news instead. People as a whole are extremely simple.

Its also ignoring how a lot of people on the right were raised that way, so these thoughts aren't even their own, they're victims in all of this too. Useful idiots yes, but also victims. I knew many people who voted for trump only because Bernie wasn't allowed to run. Many trump voters just want to burn down the system that has robbed them of the life the country used to promise us, they see trump as that cure. they're wrong, but the intention is important in finding common ground. In fact when I meet them, unless they're the super unhinged maga hat wearing dipshits, which has definitely become more common. I mean meeting the "anything but dems" voters, I have real talks with them, when u get past the rhetoric the majority of them want the same stuff as anyone else, they want a home, they want a life, they want to be paid well, they dont want a billionaire class ruling us instead of ourselves. They've just been manipulated into thinking the republican party is the only way they'll get it. This is why i preach cohesion. So many of us want the same thing but were too busy fighting this culture war, which the majority of Americans wouldn't care about if the entirety of news media wasn't shoving it down our throats, all paid for by billionaires that want us to keep fighting a culture war, so we forget they're the true enemy.
