GOP standard operating procedure

[surfered]

Create a problem, usually cultural, and get FOX News to constantly repeat it. In short, they set up straw men to knock down and pretend they provided solutions.

Examples: Critical Race Theory which was a college elective, but they made their audience believe it was mandatory in public schools. So, they banned books. Problem solved.

Trans men in women’s sports. Statistically less than a tenth of a percent, but they claimed it was rampant. They passed a law against it. Problem solved.

DEI. The cause of every ill and the bane of white males. So, they remove the program from government and pressure colleges and corporations to do the same.

And the big one: voter fraud. No one can provide any evidence of it happening, but to prevent it they institute policies to suppress our votes

Are there other examples?

2. Gay marriage

4. "conservative" moral panics are as old as darwin

and have evolved from that monkey business through red scares, drug wars, and day care satanists.

they used to use chain letters and such until the internet really amplified their nonsense.

Every fucking thing they do.

6. You nailed it surfered

I might add, “Immigrants bring violent crime and disease to our country” when statistics show that American citizens commit far more violent crimes percentage wise than undocumented immigrants.

Also statistics show it is AMERICAN smugglers bringing fentanyl across the border at a much higher rate than undocumented people.

7. Facts. They hate facts.
