Yeah… now if only we could do something about that whole “government literally never doing things in the interests/wishes of the general population problem”
It’s funny how the media has polls upon polls upon polls for shit like this or, say, abortion. That thing which about 60-70% of Americans said should be legal, at least in some form, nationwide… what happened with that… oh… oh no…
There’s probably some word or phrase for when the media puts it right out in the open that you do not live in anything even slightly resembling a democracy, your opinion does not matter, and we will shove it in your face daily so you see it plainly laid before you.
Probably, the “know your place, mongrel” effect.
A person’s support for America’s foreign wars is inversely proportional to how likely they are to be drafted to fight in such wars.
Also how likely the spoils of war/ imperialism are to be shared with them.
Old people get their news from MSM and young people get it from social media.
What is MSM?
Mainstream media. Things like cable news, or the New York Times.
Is it most though? At a quick google 18-49 is 42% and 50+ is 36%, in my head napkin math it would seem that the majority do not think it is justified so this seems like an actual MSM moment.
At worst it is roughly equal.
Could be a case of Simpsons paradox?
Why not just show the overall % I wonder, like that would have been the first data they obtained.
