That silence always speaks the proverbial volumes.
When you get silence as a response (or retort), OR you get a mumbling "wellll, I dunno....", then that means you've hit home, and probably a little too hard. That, I think, is the human version of "TILT!" Which we used to see in the cartoons when the robot's or computer's wires suddenly got crossed and rendered it unable to function further.
Unfortunately, WE have to be the news now. Somebody who embraces the group-brainwash of the Pox Noise/hate radio/GOPspeak world is probably not very likely to watch a different news source like MSNBC. So they won't otherwise get much about the real world outside the bubble. They won't get their repeated and massaged and manipulated talking points that they're force-fed on Pox with all those pre-programmed-and-approved talking heads, biased anchors, and agenda-driven hosts and cohosts.
YOU AND I have to be there to debunk, to rebut, to fact-check, indeed, to REALITY-CHECK, and CORRECT the record - to poke holes in their comfy little bubble. Besides, MSNBC doesn't have the greatest coverage or distribution. So we've GOTTA be there to take up the slack.
Btw - I'm 62 too!
