Idk, at first I wanted to believe it was people being disingenuous to sway people to their side. But now? I think people drank the kool aid so fast and hard that they've lost touch with reality. I talk to people who sincerely think, with 100% certainty, that we are going to go through a slight hiccup before america returns to 1950's prosperity. There will be factories and high paying jobs in every town. They'll get paid tons of money for simple jobs like their grandpa. Money will be pouring out of their pockets from the prosperity. I'm actually scared at their delusion because when reality hits them, they are going to be angry and there's a real chance they won't look inward or towards the GOP. They're going to lash out at everyone else and it will get ugly.
Social media is the first line of society for a mass amount of people. and that platform simply spreads bad or misinformation because it's sourced from unfiltered morons.
