    Fucking do it. When the only news feed people have access to is state sponsored Fox News and AI generated MAGA memes on Facebook maybe we’ll get enough people waking up to make a difference.

      My brother in christ. They are pulling people from the streets. They are re-writing what schools have to teach. They are removing references to an inconvenient history (slavery). They are calling for civil uprising. They are denominating opposing political groups as terrorists.

      If people haven’t snapped out of it now, they definitely won’t when only state sponsored news is on the air.

      Live in a right wing state…

      They’ll still call it the “Liberal media” any time it says ANYTHING against their world view. Fox is “liberal media” around here.

      I am not 100% sure about that. I could see some growing quite bored with their options and maybe waking up. I can see some falling into The Algorithm and getting way, way radicalized into more Nazi stuff.

      But yeah, if Taco even takes away the soma, it might be that some people get well and truly pissed. At him. And the Republicans and the conservatives that are destroying this country.
