The Left is doing it wrong.

We need to stop calling it the green New Deal; and call it the Patriot Power Act.

We’re not trying to go green or “Woke”. No! We’re making ’Merca energy independent! We’ll stop importing oil from the tourist countries! And be energy self sufficient!

—BRANDING!!

    Maybe ideological subversion by Russia for the last 40 years?

      It’s not just Russia. Governments propagandize their own, including Western ones. Recall Snowden, Assange, Manning, and with the help of “reputable” news. False flags. I think now we’re just to the point where any sane person doubts most of what they hear and should doubt most of what they see. But we crave order and cling to the narrative that seems to make the most sense to our own minds’ peculiarities. Some are certainly closer to true than others but there are a lot of politicians throwing rocks and hiding hands. As I said elsewhere: absolutely everything is based on money and appearances.

        The media is full of all types of “news” but people don’t seek out and objectively analyze truth, they seek “news” and “science” that fits their preconceived notions and parade it around as truth.
