Some of it is sexism or misanthrope, but some of it I think is the willful misinformation spread by corporate entities that want to discredit tort laws or whatever

willful misinformation spread by corporate entities that want to discredit tort laws

Yeah but if you KNOW THAT yeah still spread it what does that say about you? It's like the anarchists who have been informed that Radio Free Asia is LITERALLY OWNED by the State Department but cite it as a legit source anyway. At a certain point are you really being "duped" by propaganda anymore or are you playing along because you already agreed with what the propaganda says.

Yeah, a lot of propaganda isn't really about someone truly believing a lie but having "licensure" to repeat it because repeating it is normal. Some people really are misinformed, though of course being completely incurious about looking up details even just to better understand this thing you believe is its own problem.

It's now over 30 years ago and liberal media is still omitting important details in the regular retellings.
