I stumbled upon this thread while feeding the bugs that now occupy 37.294% of my brain case. Holy shit I am terrified of the future. People actually fucking believe this shit. No fucking awareness whatsoever that it’s *checks notes* an election year, and this “border crisis” seemingly materialized out of nowhere. Oh and COVID never happened. None of that is because of COVID.

Conservatives will do anything to misidentify/ignore the root causes of all this shit.

Here in Oregon these dumb fucks are actually blaming urban decay and the fentanyl epidemic on drug decriminalization (which passed when it was just starting to reach critical mass) and the Bottle Bill (we're one of only a handful of states where you can collect certain plastic bottles/aluminum cans/glass bottles and redeem them for cash).

    The western world puts a lot, a lot, of money into propaganda. We're lucky we have an alternative source of information we can trust.

    Conservatives have Fox News.
