There will reach a point where the majority of the population are in on it.
When that happens, what then?
-
What then you ask?
More indignation, hand wringing, blame laying and public displays of patriotic machismo. Tattoo parlours and retail sales of camoflage gear will skyrocket.
More vacuous tweets.

One thing Trump did is expose to us how many stupid people live in this country. It's scary. The right wing media machine has brainwashed them all. "democrat evil, socialist, communist, take your money, let the mexicans in" I don't believe there is any turning back on this. These people are doomed to a life of ignorance. Their only saving grace is that they have alot of company so they feel good about being dumb.

@nobodyssock This is no different on the left and right. I don't think it's "stupid people". I think it's how social media has amplified and shaped the leanings of people who wouldn't normally be that politically interested.
With the BLM stuff - I noticed a lot of people close to me had no idea what the facts on the ground were, but posted social media posts and formed their opinions mostly on the fact that others in their circle were expressing the same opinion.
I pushed people really close to me to really explain why they believed what they did, and their understanding was usually very shallow. A lot of Canadians actually picked up the BLM mantle in Canada. They had protests and kinda modified to be about indigenous populations because there aren't that many black people in Canada.
I don't want to take this thread on a "social media is bad" tangent - but I don't think this is about people being stupid.

Nah - all you need to do is change 'left' and 'right' around, and it could be one of a huge number we've seen over the years.

We are bombarded here on a daily basis from the other side and you don't bat an eye. Now you're triggered?
The hypocrisy here is just amazing to watch.

Interesting bit of projecting...
"Democrat evil, Socialist, Communist"...., are you saying Socialism and Communisism are not evil and are just fine? Because you see, it is a fact that the democrats are the ones wanting America to be a Socialist nation. So either the stupid one is you, or you agree with the goal of turning America into a Socialist nation.
"Take your money"... I'm not sure what rock you've been living under, but it's been a commonly accepted fact by both sides of the political spectrum for more years than you've been alive that the democrats are the tax and spend party.
"Let the Mexicans in"... now that one proves that you get your opinions from leftwing nutjobs. You didn't say "open the border" you had to make it about race. That's the propaganda of the left speaking. The Right has no problems with Mexicans, in fact the majority of them are Conservatives and Catholics, and family types.. they vote democrat because your side uses language like you just used, designed to make them believe republicans are racists who don't like Mexicans. And of course, plenty of democrat morons like you believe that also, because.. well... you're stupid. The folks from Mexico who come here legally however, tend to be Republican.
Now let's phrase this issue correctly. The Right wants the border secure so we know who us entering. The Left wants no border because they dont give a damn about the drug trafficking, child sex trade, nd the other forms of human trafficking that goes on as a result of an open border, they just want voters.
It was reported in the news just two days ago that there are 2 separate "caravans" of people heading toward the border already, in anticipation of Biden taking office and throwing the border back open. They bring with them the drug trade, children who will be sold into the sex slavery trade, there will be a lots of women raped along the way, some will be killed... all because they KNOW that if your side gets control of government, it's back to business as usual.
"The people are doomed to a life of ignorance".... the facts prove beyond ALL doubt that the ignorance is people like you. You are SO ignorant in fact, that it's almost funny.

Good point. In todays world, alot (maybe most) of the people get their news from the internet (and I dont mean reading on line newspapers).
And these sites "follow" what you read and what is interesting to you, and just posts more the same type of stuff. After a while for example, if you are far to the right or far to the left, that is the only type of news you read and you lose out on a whole different perspective.
Not so good in the long run.
