They’ve grown up in an environment that taught them to distrust media and therefore only believe that which directly affects them.
The reason they don’t seem to care about the millions of deaths caused by Trump’s cuts to USAID isn’t because they’re all sociopaths, but because they don’t believe it.
The rightwing propaganda doesn’t have to be believed in order to achieve its goal. The most dangerous thing isn’t the lies. It’s actually the skepticism towards the truth. They reached the point where their lies got so outrageous and distrust in news so high, they could actually start doing crazy shit like opening concentration camps for dissidents and attempting to rig elections, and people reading that news just saw it as the same insane lies, just from the other side of the aisle.
Bullshit. They’re illiterate morons who believed whatever was politically convenient.
