      My favourite is when they go out of their way to find other media because they don't trust corporate media but they don't have the critical thinking or media literacy skills to find better media and just end up getting state department propaganda laundered through some youtuber they found. Then they moan about how they don't watch corporate media when you point out they're parroting what the mainstream media says :data-laughing:
