IShall_Run_Amok 01/09/23 10:29:25 AM #5:	I think it's worse than them simply being stupid or ignorant. They pick up on social and political subtext well enough, but actively rationalize it away in order to downplay it, or even appropriate it for themselves. Of course, it may be reflexive, and not something they do consciously. --- Your mom Sherlock. Sherlock deez nuts <cite>IShall_Run_Amok posted [p:970726089] in Would you ...

DoesntMatter 01/09/23 10:31:15 AM #8:	yes. they habitually watch Fox News, which spouts so much fake bullshit that they were taken to court over it and forced to categorize themselves as "opinion news" because everything they say is counterfactual. and conservatives who watch it are stupid and gullible enough to think they're the ones getting the REAL news. --- It don't matter.

Of course, it may be reflexive, and not something they do consciously. So basically when something left-leaning comes out that makes their themes and politics overt, they no longer have any room to rationalize it away and that's where the backlash comes in?

So basically when something left-leaning comes out that makes their themes and politics overt, they no longer have any room to rationalize it away and that's where the backlash comes in? I would also say that lately, it has become more advantageous to accuse media of being political when it isn't explicit or even implicit - it's obvious that their outrage at, say, that recent He Man cartoon was complete hogwash and their feelings aren't real. I think this is a separate matter entirely from their media literacy, though. It's a direct and calculated fascist attack on the media landscape as a whole. --- Your mom Sherlock.
