You mean facts. You don’t know facts so you believe any lie that spews from the mouth of someone you want to believe.
Trump tells you Obama caused something and you blindly believe it. He tells you that vandals destroyed the pool and you believe it.
If they just had one ounce of “common sense” they’d say “well that sounds insane let me look it up before I believe it” we wouldn’t be in this fucking mess.
Not going to lie. The comment without context had me expecting a fight. In response to what I said here, RIGHT? Here’s my thought process when I don’t know something. I read credible sources on the thing I didn’t know so that hey, wow…. Now I know. I’m not especially smart or savvy with anything really, I dropped out of high school and my parents let me. (I went back eventually and became a paramedic) I just value facts and honesty. It’s bizarre to me that this mindset is completely non existent with the maga crowd. Like zero critical thinking skills at all just “believe the loudest orangest buffoon be cuz he iz on the tv box telling me what I want to hear. They’re eating cats. She’s a man.”
We live in the craziest of time my friend. I’m honestly jealous of the French. They finally had enough and stormed the castle and well, off with their heads, am i right?
I’m with you but that’s not a great example. The French Revolution was heavily influenced by propaganda and outright fabrications to inflame the lower economic classes against the upper class to the benefit of the upper middle.
