      Populism works because it taps into actually existing grievances. Or creates them, but in this case it’s option A.

      I have heard some people refer to Fox News as being, and I quote, “liberal.”

      In fairness, these people are part of the MAGA crowd, so I assume they can’t actually read and have no idea what the word “liberal” means.

      “We have propaganda news on our side just as the left does”

      Greene claimed that since Carlson was fired from “neocon network Fox News, he has more popularity and viewers than ever before” and that “he unapologetically believes the same things I do.”

      Yeah, nah.

    All news outlets are partially owned by a couple private equities. The same private equities own stakes in private defense contractors. Private equity pulls the strings on far too many industries so they twist narratives like this for profit.

        after all that trouble they went to get military aid to be diverted from ukraine, indirectly via trump. probably realized the war near thier own country could destabalize the region which can draw in russia, possibly pakistan,india and china.

            You don’t need an education system, just past lived experience. Trump himself regularly lies about how he was always against the Iraq war. It’s just one letter off, should be pretty easy to work out what would happen if they did the same thing again.

          Not to mention the terrain of Iran would prove an order of magnitude more difficult to overcome. Afghanistan was already very difficult for our military, imagine MORE mountains

            Yep, huge country, difficult terrain, largely homogeneous culture that goes back to the Persian Empire, homegrown weapons industry that can build their own drones and missiles. This is going to be more difficult by orders of magnitude.
