Trying to explain to people how the greatest political divide in the West right now is almost certainly either a direct or indirect consequence of Russia's weaponization social engineering aka "The Firehose of Falsehoods", the conservative right losing trust in their own leadership by believing 9/11 to be an inside job and the liberal left losing credibility by being gaslit into overextending their progressive support, just all makes me look like a crazy person, not autistic with a good memory.
Canadian politics have become almost equally unhinged as a result, as we are directly connected in almost every concern and concept our neighbor experiences.
I am so terrified for my child's future.
@lacuda Right?
I keep seeing people saying things like "Don't they know what they said is untrue, or doesn't work that way?"
Yes! They are saying those things on purpose to be dishonest!
Conservatives: "Everything is a conspiracy, so we no longer believe in anything structured, only chaos."
Liberals: "Well if people are saying we support kids using litter boxes in schools, I guess we do."
