  • Rich people figured out that if you buy a news outlet and just have them repeat a lie over and over and over and over it just becomes a fact that everyone knows.

    From there you have your politicians run on fixing the problem you lied about existing and now everyone is convinced that not only is the problem real, but only the right wingers can fix it.

    Bonus: when your chosen politicians win, you can have your media outlet lie about the problem being fixed to give people a warm fuzzy to reinforce voting this way.



  • At least pretending like they care would be a good start. They unanimously approved a few Trump appointees on the promise that the republicans might reconsider one or two and whoops the dems once again got the football pulled out from in front of them. They literally cannot learn the lesson that bargaining with the republicans gets them nothing in return ever because they are the only ones who will hold up their end of the deal…

    At a bare minimum they can stop doing that.
