47% are extremely susceptible to disinformation echo chambers.
The rich have eroded academic institutions and flooded the airwaves, muddying the waters of reality that only those with time and strong critical-thinking skills can parse.
Put another way: if I was a psychopathic piece of shit I’d know that a dumb electorate is easier to grift and control. So I’d make sure they stay confused, ignorant, and apathetic.
Have you heard of the Russian disinformation genius Surkov? His tactic is to confuse people so they don’t know true from flase, wrong from right etc and get apathetic and defeatist.
That’s related to Survok Theater, right? Between Dugin and him, the Russian propaganda tactics being used read like an open book. We see the game being played but what are some possible solutions? Must we hope people learn their lesson in the collapse to come?
I can’t bring myself to listen to or read right wing media for even a second. Anyone that claims Trump is doing a good job will make me fly into a Hulk-like rage.
