Political Memes

I've thought about this more than you care to know.

Brutal reality: Uncensored images of maimed elementary kids bodies projected into Sunday church across the nation.

I don't have the solution but I know what problem we need to overcome is: (1) breaking into echo-chambers, and (2) delivering a credible enough message.

Fascism festers in areas of ignorance. Low education, low critical-thinking skills, etc. That's the conservative way. All of the money Democrats earn must go to these PSAs to discuss basics of critical-thinking and historical events. People are ignorant to history and inside their little bubbles will never otherwise. As people are spammed with basic information about civics, perhaps some things will finally click.

I think about what flipped my rural Appalachia blue collar religious pro-life gun-toting family. It was a perfect storm of the wild west of the internet, my dad having a flashback to his hippy days when Bush invaded Iraq, and my mom realizing the religious history books were bullshit.

Most of these people taking the bait are uninformed and desperate for excitement in their dull lives. Best bet is flipping it on its head and telling them they're being duped and it's a conspiracy to control THEM.

Nobody. Nobody changes overnight. No single fact will change a person. It has to be a relentless exposure to reality until they decide to come out from Plato's Cave and see the light.
