Don't know; have been working through this myself. I'm not proposing ignoring reality; I'm proposing deliberately avoiding propaganda hoses. It's a tough problem. I know this: Reading the 690th article on Charlie Kirk or whatever other emotion and violence-driven content they are all pumping isn't the way. | ||

I struggle with this because its not just propaganda what the president says or lies about matters and to ignore seems to be at our peril. I agree its a tough problem. Wasn't even thinking about the Charlie Kirk tbh tragedy he was murder, but also shame his funeral was weaponized for political gain. I think it reaffirms that this idea though all propaganda even if ignore becomes a constituent member of the fabric of reality because it has an effect. Every time an Anti-vax idea is espoused by the president is another chip at some future childs life. If they actually revoke the ability to vaccinate its not just the children and grandchild of the people cheering Trump who will suffer its just children in general. |
