@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.
