Thanks for this sub forum zk. I had the unfortunate experience of posting on fb about the recent “When the looting starts, the shooting starts” and “only good Democrat is a dead Democrat” tweets. In-laws jumped to say, democrats are pro violence just look at ANTIFA. They can’t even admit that something so egregious is wrong coming from a president.
It’s been a challenge having chronic fox news in-laws. We have been trying to ameliorate the situation but it’s exacerbating probably because of the pandemic and election year. We’ve found a documentary, “Brainwashing of My Dad.” It’s on amazon. We enjoyed the back story of fox news the progression of news in general. Essentially fox news uses anger to attract viewers, which explains why most of them are so angry most of the time.
And we found several posts of this sort on reddit.
Family gatherings are becoming a drain because all they want to talk about are fox news talking points. We joke about hacking their cable tv to block fox news.
