"Kids make fun of boomers for believing everything they see on Facebook and then tik tok came out"

A quote I have saved from another message board that rings true...

Too many of our fellow Americans can't tell the difference between truth and propaganda and then end up falling for the propaganda because it doesn't have to be tethered by reality and instead can be as grandiose as need be to fool them.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
