The fact that many now turn to Facebook and other social media for their news is part of the problem. The erosion of the Fourth Estate proves its importance in keeping a democracy running.
I'll rephrase and try again. If the problem on May 23, 2024 is a deluded electorate, how and why was the electorate apparently non-deluded in 2020-21, and what was the inflection point?
Racking my brain for inflection points in 2020. All I can come up with are a pandemic and the murder of a Black man by a white Minneapolis police officer.
many of the branch covidians still can’t bring themselves stop wearing face rags or to eat inside. It’s a psychosis.
Many of us love the opportunity for outdoor dining, regardless of COVID status. I don't think that's the real driving force anymore. Feel free to discuss whether the current implementation is appropriate but please don't assume that it is some fringe group of hypochondriacs that this needs to be done for.
It said Russia’s economy is growing faster. That’s not the same as doing better. Germany has a much larger economy, in absolute and per capita terms. The average German is healthier and wealthier than the average Russian. The gap between Germany and Russia is so large it would take a lot more than a few years of Russian growth and German stumbles to close it. If you disagree, take it up with math.
I'm not going to waste time refuting this obviously ridiculous Kyiv Post article about why Russia can't win. Let's see if drummerboy accuses you of not being in reality. Ha!
I charged you with a very specific falsehood - which you conveniently simply ignored.
