If you poison the information pipeline to voters, you can kill democracy — it relies on informed consent of the governed, built on a shared sense of reality. That shared sense is splintering in ways that are tearing apart our societies, often based on widely held delusions. Musk made it way worse.
@brianklaas all this crap was started by trumplethinskin, prompted from the Putin playbook, bc he's "a useful idiot", b4 him, there was no distrust in our voting systems or our institutions...its all from the fascist playbook, if anyone cares to study history, divide & conquer....

@miket330 @brianklaas

You should look up Reagan and the Fairness Doctrine he killed, and the subsequent development of right-wing talk radio, which immediately jumped off the deep end.

Incidentally, congrats to Rush Limbaugh for his two years and nine months of sobriety!
