A guy in Florida posts on Threads about the decline in visits to Disney World wondering why...he's inundated with Canadians (and others around the world) commenting about boycotting the state and the U.S.
He ignores every one of those replies and likes only the ones that suggest it has to do with weather or prices or anything but Trump, ICE or MAGA.
This captures the mindset of some Americans, I guess. They don't want to accept that perceptions of the country have fallen so low with the rest of the world.
Tragic. Wilful ignorance.

@JEmphatically@mstdn.ca The US has the most commercially successful willfull ignorance machine in the world. Fox NewsMax … With this media’s success a highly biased individual’s ideas could never encounter an idea challenging their bias? The extreme right is so successful it’s given a voice outside of its own ignorance machine lending it even more credibility in the US. Elsewhere in the world the extreme right media is always at the margins of credibility.
