did right to call them out on RW lies. Truth is, you can't change most people's minds, they get to where its a matter of faith basically. Our political discussion in this country is so screwed. I grew up with 3 network channels of news and PBS and it was so different than now. The truth is that we are probably closer to the way it was before network tv though. Politics is something else. How did we make it this far? lol.
