Look back at Eisenhower, Nixon, and Reagan, and then at Clinton, Obama, and Biden. In many ways, Bernie Sanders would have been a moderate Republican 70 years ago. And yet, people don't seem to notice as the Republicans continue to... march to the right, which leaves the more sane REpublicans who do notice to leave and join the Democrats, which pushes the Democrats further to the right as well.

I took lunch with a group of gun lovers for several years. They talked as if convinced Obama would send agents to their homes to confiscate their guns. One day I offered the following bet to my lunch-mates: If they have to surrender any of their weapons to a federal agent before Obama's tenure in the White House ends I will pay them $100 and if that does not happen they pay me the same amount. Nobody took the bet. In fact they acted like they hadn't even heard me and went on talking about Obama taking their guns. Hypocrisy exists at every level of the right wing.

Do I sound incensitive? Im not. Im realistic. I always find liberals I know who surprisingly are the only ones who know stories like this. Everytime a liberal wants to prove his point on COVID he drops the "my mom died, or i know 5 people who died'. Yet suspiciously I have a network of thousands of friends through my business and social media, I have not heard or known of one acquaintance even dying from COVID. Because thats how rare it is. And here you are claiming you know 2 of the 1 million. Give me a break!

Nope they certainly aren't. I'm a US citizen and politically independent. To them "socialist" means any time the government helps someone without expecting something in return, or any form of government regulation. That is a cardinal sin in the Republican playbook. So if the government provides someone a free vaccine, that's Socialism. If they suggest that new mine construction require an environmental impact study, Socialism. They use it to imply that such actions are moving us towards the soviet union model. In the US, left/right is primarily divided based upon what you think the role of government should be. The "right" essentially wants anarchy (no government intervention) but will take offense to calling it that (anarchy). The "left" wants a strong central government providing for its citizen's needs similar to how most in Europe are (state provided medical care and the like).

Same here, and we’re not even American. I’m a Brit living in Germany and my mum and younger brother live in Cyprus. My brother (almost 18 years younger) has always been a Trump supporter but when I previously visited them in Cyprus in 2019, I could still talk to him, even though we disagreed on politics. I wasn’t able to visit them during the pandemic, and made it back for the first time in March this year. My brother, in the meantime, has totally burrowed his way down the rabbit hole, talking about CRT being taught in schools, about grooming kids, etc. - the whole conspiracy theory insanity. We don’t get Fox News here, but he must’ve been watching online, because I heard Tucker Carlson’s voice coming from his PC speakers, along with some other RW podcast that kept talking about transgenderism being satanic. He talks to himself a lot, too, going on about these subjects, which shows that they are constantly on his mind. We got into a huge fight when he wagged his finger at me and accused me of being a p*** enabler and groomer because I’m politically on the left. A Cypriot friend of my mother told me that her sister also believes in all of those conspiracy theories and that they don’t talk to each other anymore. This insanity is dividing families around the world!

My brother was quite liberal and was very much a live and let live kind of person. My sister-in-law, whom I would always have thought was quite intelligent and compassionate has shown a wide streak of racism and xenophobia. Has also become a science denier….anti masker, anti vaccine, believed that this was a one world order virus 🙄. Trump and his rhetoric really did huge damage to a large swathe of Americans.

As a behavior specialist, I've noticed that a lot of fox viewers are scared about something. Sort of like a get them before they get me mentality. It's like a fox fuels fear, that fear makes them do some crazy stuff, like shoot through a door instead of just saying hello. I wonder what they're scared of, it breaks my heart. People living in that type of anxiety, that type of fear that's not exactly living😢

There are many possible factors for that fear. I'd say two factors are "outcomes of neo-liberalism" and "late stage capitalism". Our society treats many people as cogs in a machine, opportunities for wealth extraction, suckers to be manipulated into consumerism and/or harvested for their donations to megachurches and to political causes. I dunno what life is like on Sentinel Island, but I'd bet long odds that it has nothing like Fox News.

In my experience, it boils down to few factors, depending on demographic. Poor white men have never benefited from this system and now see a black female vice president. Rich white men cant relenquish their hegemony (financial, racial, societal, gender) Yound black men absolutely refuse to launch and play the game [stay in their place] like thier grandfathers. Too much oppressiin has been exposed COINTELPRO, redlining etc Rich black men finally have a voice and apparently wont shut up about it Women in general are marrying less. Which means less reproductive access and more divorces for already unhappy men. Inflation, dying currency, bank runs/closures, opiod epidemic, lack of housing,... I mean with every economic downturn, there has always been race riots. Except now it all went super sayian lol

American here: I don't think people outside the US realize just how addicted a lot of people are to Fox and conservative news in general. There are people that wake up and turn on Fox as they get ready for work, then they get in the car and listen to conservative talk radio, then they get to the office and they might have talk radio on while they work and they might even have Fox running in the break room. They get more talk radio on the drive home, and when they get home, they either watch more Fox or go online to the plethora of conservative news sites. That's also not incliluding the clips that are on Facebook, Instagram, KZbin, etc. Some people have such a continuous stream of this stuff to the point that the only break is sleep and the bathroom.

I had an old high school friend who lives in Alberta, Canada (Canada's "Texas"), and she was a perfectly normal person on her social media who worked as a pharmacist. She was a healthcare worker (Well, I guess she probably still is) and lived a very normal appearing life for decades. When Trump got into office, and later in the last couple of years when the whole "Convoy" debacle happened in Canada here, her social media SWIFTLY and SHARPLY changed. All her photos started showing her wearing SO much more makeup than she used to (The kind of makeup job you see on people like Tammy Fae Baker, and religious fundamentalists), she started wearing cowboy hats, and every post she put on her page wall was some whacked out conspiracy theory about the government coming after your savings, about some vast imaginary wave of Canadians that were fleeing to the safe haven of Florida to escape the 'rising fascism' in Canada..... she went full on bonkers. She wept in posts on her wall about how her own family had cut her off, and boasted about how she would never cut ties with anyone over a difference of opinions. She saw herself as the more a virtuous person in that way... I sat there, looking at month after month of insanity that she would post, until one day when she made a new post, citing her confusion over something or other (I can't remember at this point what it even was). In the post she made an active call for someone to explain it to her, if she was wrong, she wanted someone to prove it...... so normally while I would never jump on someone else's wall uninvited just to 'fact check'.... she 'did' put out an open invite to do so. I wrote one of the most eloquent pieces that I have ever conceived, and backed every point up with links to data, on government, and other official websites, that backed up every point I made. She never responded to me, and the next day she disappeared from my friend's list. These people can't be helped, and they alays turn out to be the exact person that they are accusing other people of becoming. It's sad that instead of decades of friendship, the only ay I ill ever see her now, is "that lunatic who was crying that she may have to sell her house and move to Florida because Canada was 'over'...". I feel sorry for her husband and kids. I blame the bubble of people she surrounded herself with.

Speaking as an American you have to understand Fox News is just the gateway to the echo chamber. Almost all Fox News viewers also listen to conservative talk radio and go to conservative websites. So the message is coordinated and reinforced across multiple media platforms. It's something that the people behind Fox News have been working on for decades to isolate their audience from any other new sources or opinions.That's how Fox News is able to reach so many people and is so influential.

That hurt his feelings a bit, because we love each other. But it's God's honest truth. When I go to visit, if I sense any anger rising, I make plans to sneak out of the house late at night.

Just one example, some of them are making the claim that Tucker publically went along with the story that the dominion voting machines were flipping votes--when anyone who actually watched Tucker's show instantly knows that the exact opposite was true.

I’m sorry. But the MEDIA as a whole is despicable. Out of curiosity, why does LBC not do a piece on Don Lemon getting canned as well? Do better James. Let’s not forget the awful call where James descended into a Heat journo and got shafted by Frank Lampard on his own show. Nah, the media are all scummy.

An old USN buddy of mine lives in Kansas. In the middle of nowhere. Looking at Google Earth , you can see his isolation. He's got guns, NRA, and probably watches fox 24/7. When I called after 50 years of no contact, he denied knowing me and his wife was going on about how it was nice having him around. Totally paranoid, both of them. I called about a reunion.

Fox has always been the way they are just not as extreme.

They finally dropped the slogan since it was clear they are far from fair and balanced.

I get it. My family is very conservative, and I’ve had to back away from them. They’re not total wingnuts thankfully, but they’ve done things like tested positive for COVID and taken their very young grandchildren (my niece and nephews) to Disney, refused vaccinations, and threatened to shoot anyone who tries to take their guns. Sadly, in today’s climate, that’s a pretty moderate view. A family friend believed that anyone who got the vaccine would die of AIDS within two years and refused to treat her husband’s diabetes with anything other than some miracle drops she bought off the Internet from a Christian faith healer. Her husband’s immune system tanked due to his out of control diabetes, and he died of COVID. And now the same Republicans that argued that they shouldn’t have to wear a mask because it was their body and their choice are systematically stripping women of their rights to abortion, even when it’s a matter of life or death.

Jordan Klepper described it pretty well recently. For a lot of people this has become "who they are." You can have a discussion about policies or data with someone who supports a party. If they consider it as their identity, you are attacking them and changing them and it won't work. I suspect the only way back is to talk to them about "who they are" right now and if that's who they want to be.

He was my best man at my wedding and he’s from Florida and he now lives in Surrey England he was the same, he was a mainstream Republican and some of their family over in Florida has gone down the Trump rabbit hole of lies and they have been brainwashed by the media and they haven’t spoken to some of their relatives in Florida for over 7 years and I asked why haven’t you spoken to them for 7 years…? And then it dawned on me why... I realised what they were saying and they got caught up in the Trump 2020 elections lies and Fox News lying about voter fraud and they were brainwashed by the media in America. Sadly, for 7 years they haven’t spoken to their brother and sister who was also at my wedding I know them personally but the media just brainwashed them and they fell down the Trump rabbit hole of lies and they can’t get out.
