To me it feels like as the fascists just become further emboldened, the fact they can get away with more and more blatant lying is 'the point'. Like lying so blatantly is an act of disrespect they can get away with as they are no longer bound to the truth by strategic necessity.

Well yeah but that's the background radiation of a capitalist media empire playing nice and a conservative outrage machine milking it for all its worth. That's what we've been dealing with for a decade plus

I think the idea is that it’s accelerating, it certainly feels like we’re heading faster and faster towards false reality subsuming tangible facts. Technology changes the calculus vs prior eras and their solutions

Agree. It happens with both sides. It’s just acceptable if it’s your side. We ALL need to take a step back and see who is really behind this, and it’s not this president or any president. Follow the money. Follow the donors.
