  I have conservative family who only read/watch Fox news, OAN and some conservative meme site called twitchy, which is like if Fox news tried to be dumber. They don't see this. There is no true reporting. My mom didn't know about the breadth of tariffs. She didn't know about the DJT crypto scam. I've explained signal to her several times (prior to the news, just getting her to use it). She really doesn't understand anything complicated. She "knows Trump is a jerk" but wants, and I quote, "America for Americans" and for us to put China in its place and to secure the border. edit: I told my dad "Why do you think America is so powerful and influential? It's because we invest in the world and welcome students into this country. We aren't the center of the world for no reason". He simply replied, "We are the center of the world." Our country is filled with people like this, incapable of abstract thought and poisoned by lies.

    People always like to think their good fortune is because they have some special sauce that others don't have. But they also resent all the obligations that go with it. Plenty of people in Britain still think the world owes us something, nearly a century after the end of our empire.
