Good reminder that the media is full of lies, and that "social media" is even WORSE than old media.

The dumbing-down effect is incredible.

COVID was bad. Really bad.

The Russian war is even worse. (The MAGA/Q-anon clowns don't even get the chronology REMOTELY right.)

I'm not sure it CAN get worse than disinformation related to the Russo-Ukrainian War, but we'll see where the current Hamas-Israel conflict goes...

When truth goes away, the masses DON'T become skeptical. Quite the contrary - they start believing in ANYTHING.

"Troofers" are more gullible than "sheeple".

(That's not to say BIG MEDIA is trustworthy. But they lie in a completely different way.)
