> 35% approve
I also gotta wonder what percentage of this group is amplified beyond reality by bot armies and hostile foreign actors. There can't really be that many people so completely detached from reality, can there?
- defrost 29d ago> so completely detached from reality isn't really the crux of the problem with modern day USofA, more and more people are completely attached to their algo tuned bubble, curated for them by the data scientists of <insert techno silo here>. It's not just the hostile bot armies of foreign actors tugging on the strings of perception, the distortion is coming from inside the borders.

- budman1 29d agoThere is no local media in the US. A wide swath of the electorate gets 100% of their news from Fox news. In Texas, it is widely known that the Trump family are experts in crypto finance, and worthy of the gains they have made. (also that sharia law is widely practiced) When people that aren't highly educated have no source of accurate current events, they have a warped view of reality.
