I found myself watching GB News last night (doubled their viewing stats) and everything is starting to make sense.
So much of what was said I see regurgitated on this forum from the climate, covid, etc deniers, constant attacks on "MSM" with suggestions newspapers and the BBC are lying to the people constantly. It is all really rather sad to see.
As usual, all the discussions were also completely pointless. And this is what really annoys me. At least have a discussion with a purpose other than to pretend to be doing something. But its all "the government is wrong, the MSM are the problem, scientists are lying to us" but never is there any proposal for how things should be done differently, how denying climate change will improve our lives, how ignoring medical and military threats can lead to a stronger nation. Just constant moaning and whinging without any substance or purpose.
But people lap it up. Why? Because it is easy to digest. Complaining without understanding the problem is now the favourite pastime of many people. Why learn what the problems are, when you can just copy the bloke on the TV. Tik Tok was even mentioned once, I almost spat my beer out.
