"Accidentally" is exactly how ingesting misinformation happens.

It’s their own fault for not fact-checking.

If you take everything at face-value, you’re either willfully ignorant or just plain stupid.

I mean, they could have turned their TVs and radios off. Or hell, they could have just changed the channel.

People that can’t identify the propaganda they are consuming is morally reprehensible are morally reprehensible. It appeals to their deepest feelings. Fuck this guy and fuck all these fascists ruining our world.
