Propaganda

Fox news Oann Newsmax

All propaganda channels that literally only publish lies. Fox news sued (and won) for the right to call itself a news channel yet lie their asses off without any legal problems

I'm just amazed that nobody saw this coming since at least 2-3 decades ago

I know the feeling.

O saw fox news for the first time and was like WTF, how can this be real and allowed? Then I gave it slightly more thought and you see how this is useful to make people for politicians that work against their best interests. You then see that happen, you see each next Republican presidential candidate be dumber and dumber and greedier. You see the US economy always in shambles after a Republican president, yet people keep voting for them because....

And you see this going in a certain direction.

This was a good 30 years ago.

Why are there so few people like us that didn't see this coming from miles away?
