We all need to use the word "propaganda" now.

And so should members of the media.

We keep acting like the best way to communicate about the right's behavior is to expose them for being shamefully ignorant on the facts.

Reality check: they know they are wrong on the facts and they don't care. They aren't trying to get the right answer. They choose not to live in the reality based community.

We have to spotlight the propganda system as we are pointing out the underlying facts of the issue. Otherwise we are normalizing the "2 sets of reality" framework that propoganda needs to spread within our system.

I agree with you 100%. Accepting Trump's lies and vile behavior as being normal is dangerous.

My Ford, I think America is becoming "A Brave New World."

Don't look to the M$M, it is owned and controlled by far right oligarchs.
