Seriously, I found my sister (who’s nearly 30) watching a silly video about “feminists doing men’s work”, basically just a hate compilation of tiktoks and a chud yelling at the camera about evil leftists and stuff like that.
How the fuck do you stay happy watching this slop? It’s just constant hateful bullshit, I’m surprised we don’t see more terrorism from this stuff being consumed by millions of people everyday.
Both parties can be very driven to seek out information that is distressing. Idk about them, but I do it bc i feel a constant need to be aware, to know what’s happening, both bc i feel it might some day help me to change things, and because remaining ignorant feels like abandoning some duty. Whereas they’re seeking out bs about “illegals” doing crimes. But they think they’re being informed about threats they face, and that they need to keep seeking that “information” (fash propaganda) out to be “informed” and protect themselves.
The reasons and goals are quite different, but both groups are exposed to a great deal of stress.
