7. I keep telling people!

I slogged through a year of being on the local 90% Republican FB page, and the truth is that they do not have any reliable news - it is ALL propaganda. Plus they are told that the only sources they can trust is the RW sources.

They truly believe that the country is falling apart and everything is broken because this is all they hear AND when info is presented otherwise it’s almost as it they are frightened to hear it. They lash out, they sneer, and they toss you ugly memes.

When in doubt they would attack Dem women politicians.

Dems did not lose this election, propaganda won it.

8. Same thing from the GA 11th Congressional District. They believe every single

thing they hear on those RW news media outlets and spout all the trash talking points from faux news about how everything is so expensive because the economy is so bad. They truly believe that tRUMP is a savior sent by God to cleanse the world of all wickedness. They do not realize that they are worshiping a golden calf. https://www.britannica.com/topic/golden-calf
