Ohh the brainwashing is so true…just need to look at your local Facebook threads and just see the parroting of bullshit, absent any real facts. I really think it comes down to nobody wants to read anymore and some people, maybe its a majority, get their news from short 30 second video clips and thats it…so easy to be misinformed without doing any real research or effort. Oh well.
Ohh they would likely secretly love it and then publicly bash it depending on what their local news tells them to think about it. Shit we just passed a major cut to property taxes and now they are talking about shutting down parks, libraries and other social outlets to offset the local budget cuts. The amount of people cheering it on is just ridiculous.
Yeah, that’s why I included getting rid of the propaganda during that thought experiment.
Ignorant people don’t read, and therefore don’t understand why they should have to pay for libraries. I’m aware that libraries do more than loan out books, but they don’t know that. Because they’re ignorant. These are the same kinds of people who think they shouldn’t have to pay for public schools unless they or their kids are using them, and then they wonder why their property value is in the toilet when the schools fall apart. These fucking imbeciles truly cannot think more than one step ahead, to the point that the average 8 year old could probably beat a lot of them in connect four.
True, but voting against property taxes isn’t necessarily political, it could be monetary, and many of us are on a shoestring already.
Ohh yah you made some great points.
Yep and they still vote. But that is it right there as you stated…the question is how do you fix that? I certainly don’t have an answer for it, and now things are being jumped ahead to asking an AI chat bot on how to think or vote…so now is up to who controls the AI/LLM that determines what information people get back. Maybe we should give everyone in the country a subscription to a foreign newspaper like the guardian lol…yah that sounds like a horrible idea after reading that aloud lol.
