I've said it before, I'll say it again: I can't help but think there are people at Fox News who like these kinds of ideas, and while they know it's their job to make them look bad, they purposefully do it badly so that they end up looking good after all. Honestly no other explanation makes sense to me.

It's not Fox News that's out of touch, it's the people here being out of touch with how brainwashed their viewers are to see all of those things as evil and terrible after so many years of propaganda.

We look and see a list of great things we desperately want, they look and see Godzilla eating orphans as snacks.

Thing is, I've seen enough fox news myself. They don't usually put things like this. They prefer to hide it behind big scary "liberalism" or "socialism" (ooga booga!)

Kurt Vonnegut had a thing or two to say about secret saboteurs working for fascist propaganda machines.
