Why is trust in government so low? There’s blame to go around.

[BidenPresident]

The media plays a large role in shaping negative opinions about government and denigrating good-faith efforts at governance. Consider this recent secondary headline from the New York Times: “With their majority at stake, Democrats plan to use the six high-profile hearings to refocus voters’ attention on Republicans’ role in the attack.” That’s yet another piece of evidence showcasing reporters’ habit of casting serious, conscientious efforts as nothing more than partisan food fights.

Corporate media has almost no credibility now, only the willfully ignorant believe them.

The WOKE are so very desperate to blame the messaging and the ignorance of the people, so that their ideology/agenda are not the problem.

They believe what they need to believe to keep the fantasy going.

Pretty much no one in the Elite Class is trustworthy, just look at what they have done....WITHOUT CONSENT!

This is pure abuse.

 

[Hawkeye10]

Remembering too that Conservatives have been almost completely useless.

They say what they need to get elected.

Mass Formation is the best term currently. But it is very important to remember the abuse and suicide aspect to this, which Mass Formation does not capture. We need a better diagnosis.

 

[Hawkeye10]

They say what they need to get elected.

They have said what was required to keep their reputations, even when they know they are betraying their stated beliefs and oaths.

Almost everyone does that now.

We are SO fucked.
