The problem is, these people think they’re informed because they binge watch Fox News, which is actively lying to them. To follow your analogy, the demolition company was running commercials 24/7 saying they’re the best roof fixers in town.
Don’t get the impression that I’m defending these dumb fucks for voting the way they did. I just wanted to say we’re never getting rid of this problem when people live in their media bubbles that blatantly hide the truth from them.
Demolition company: When we’re done, you’ll never need to worry about a leaky roof again!
Every Fox News watcher: omg, amazing deal!
The issue isn’t Fox News itself or the lies they tell, it’s the viewer’s inability to process information into logical truths.
Fox News simply has no moral issue with lying to them. If you pay attention to what people complain about when it comes to the left, it’s their reluctance to lie to people.
