Your average treatler in the imperial core is so much more likely to consume news that promises them the wildfires are caused by jewish space lasers than a ho-hum we're killing the planet with shit like fossil fuels.

It's like the Marvel effect, wherein all movies follow the super-hero formula now. Instead of films that get by on things like dialogue or story telling, it's how bombastic the special effects are and if it fits into a larger "universe".

Well chuds feel apart of something larger when they consume Fox News, with it's bombastic production and movie star looking anchors. They're "enlightened" and know "the truth" about the world the dumb libs don't know. Even if said truth is just the same old antisemitic conspiracies the fascists from the 40's were peddling just with a 21st century new coat of paint.

I need to stop watching CNN it's bad for my mental health btw.

Since never but it's about the best you're going to get out of them to say yeah climate change is real and fossil fuels are bad. But their solution to the problem is to vote for Kamala while the right wants to put black people into camps.

What they do is pick and choose what things do and don't get treated to material analysis. They'll analyze the physics and chemistry, but they'll quarantine political economy and history away from any kind of mat-analysis. Those can only be analyzed with vibes.
