Who would have believed that millions could gobble up so much bullshit?

29. Fox

It’s cult 101. Hell, it’s graduate-level cultism. Brainwashing. Hate. Fear. The Other. Us vs them. For them it’s a zero sum game. If “the other” wins or gets stuff, they lose. There is no sense of community except among their own jobs. E Pluribus, fuck the Unum.

It’s Hitler in the 20s and 30s re Jews, Catholics, homosexuals, Romani, etc. They are the other, and only he can save them.

Today it’s gays, Jews, people of color (any color). It’s the Chinese flu. And only he can save them.

The message is repeated all day, every day. They hear nothing else and are told that anything else they hear is a hoax and fake news. They hear it on Fox and they hear it in their churches. Even as they Kay dying in the ICUs, their brains can’t take in the disconnect, the cognitive dissonance.

And, no, I don’t know how you deprogram 60 million people.
