Yes. It's designed to keep the uneducated ill-informed and rabid because "the democrats!"

You don't really have to be when people are looking to be radicalized as easy as they are nowadays lol

Then when the inconsistencies in logic are pointed out, it's still useless because the cognitive dissonance.

Like for example: Minnesotans who are voting Republican this year are blaming Walz for the high gas prices, so they're voting Scott Jensen (a fucking moron btw, he and his family drove their brother to suicide, and everyone in my home town knows it), so he can lower it. But... they also blame Biden for the high gas prices, because in their mind, the President is responsible for gas prices. So... which is it? Either the Governor can dictate gas prices, or it's the President in charge of it. You can't have your cake and eat it.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.—Martin Niemöller

posts like this also are why they get radicalized lol

Why would they want to associate with anyone that thinks of them like that when others see then as people (whether manipulative or not)
