Such nutcases now run the country - and try to run the world. How did we get from there to here…
Follow the money. Perhaps they are nutcases as you say, but I think it’s purposeful propaganda. It serves their agenda, and so they spread a false reality and get adherents.
If you’re a minority class trying to control a majority population, you’ll make your work much easier for you if you ensure that the population you’re trying to control is pitted against one another.
You see it in Christianity. Take 50% of the population, pit it against the remaining 50% and now you only have to control half the people, because that half will control the rest, and they’ll be more keen to do what you want because they’ll want to remain in control. Thus, original sin.
I forgot to add the term “grifter” or “huckster” somewhere!
It’s partly the simple algorithmic rule of outrage engagement => more ads => more money, and partly that they are directly supported by rich people that very actively want to push agendas.
It’s far worse. You need only controll of 10 % of a crowd to controll the entire crowd, if there is no competition for controll. At least that’s what crowd management psychology found out.
